Co-engineering
--- Collaborating and co-developing
As co-engineers, we collaborate with you from an early design stage: ‘Early supplier involvement’. We use all our knowledge and experience to find the most optimal solution for the manufacturability and reproducibility of your parts and/or assemblies.
The advantages
We feel committed to the customer and jointly responsible for the final product. In doing so, we know all the possibilities and impossibilities of the production process of fine mechanical parts. Not surprisingly, clients often ask us at the design stage to help them think about the most optimal solution.
That avoids unpleasant surprises. But it also shortens time-to-market of prototypes and minimises development costs. A reassuring thought: the technical product file remains under the customer's control. Changes we propose are always reviewed and further processed there.
We are happy to discuss:
- adjustability
- construction principles
- ergonomics
- functional testability
durability
- material use
- assembly instructions
- assembly technique (gluing, screwing, welding)
- ease of assembly (auxiliary tools required)
- maintainability
- surface treatment
- tolerances
- uniformity
- safety
- design
Levels of co-engineering

Co-engineering
Achieving the desired functionalities of products under the best conditions is what we as co-engineers strive for. If you bring your product to Nijdra, we will make it using the latest techniques and logistical processes. We take all chain concerns out of your hands; you can keep focus on your own core business.

Value engineering
We subject existing products to a so-called 'value engineering study'. If we already make the product or will soon do so, we will investigate whether we can produce it even more efficiently after making various adjustments. Cost price reduction (CPR) can be one of the goals here. In that case, we apply the following model:

Software support
Nijdra uses professional software. We use it to translate all your questions and wishes into high-quality product designs. We can also convert any of your own designs for further processing.
Product Lifestyle Management
Accelerating technological developments are shortening product life cycles and modifications/upgrades are taking place more frequently. The time-to-market of new products must therefore also be ever shorter. As a supplier, we therefore always take a flexible and innovative approach. Our extensive experience in the high-tech industry means we add value for customers at every stage – from development to the final product.
