OUR ADVANTAGE
Working with Precision Microdrives

Our clients
Our clients are designing a new product or undertaking a lifecycle refresh of an existing one. They are using the opportunity to embrace value-engineering instead of over-engineering.
This doesn’t mean low standards. Instead, our clients are developing a specification with care, designing and manufacturing with diligence and delivering precisely.
Our motors and mechanisms are fit for world-class products at a price that enables straightforward commercial success.
Our vision
Like the products themselves, a motor and mechanism manufacturer has many moving parts. The technology, whilst mature, is still complicated and underpinned by many engineering disciplines.
We offer technical support, guidance and a real partnership to innovators who want to manage and reduce their risk and maximise commercial success.
Founded in 2004 to make sourcing of proven electro-mechanical mechanisms in Asia easier and more reliable, our business is built on a desire to help like-minded people use miniature motors in their application.


Our objective
The more you embrace a partnership with us the more value and commercial success we can bring to your business.
We can take on the design and manufacture of your application’s electromechanical mechanism with significant experience. We can save you from the pitfalls and risks in working with these types of products. We can integrate modern and proven technology in highly cost-effective packages.
This will help you focus on developing the technology and features that will set your application apart from your competition. The more we can help you focus on maximising your value the more we prosper together as partners.

MECHANISM DESIGN PARTNER
