Contract Manufacturing Design
Coghlin Companies has extensive product engineering capabilities that range from concept development and feasibility studies through prototype, pilot and scaled test equipment development with a focus on manufacturing design for high volume. Coghlin Companies prepares your product to be ready for market and production, whether through Columbia Tech or Cogmedix, or through your own production facility. Tying in product engineering with Coghlin Companies contract manufacturing capabilities assures the accuracy of production cost estimates and the utilization of a qualified and global tiered supply chain early in the contract manufacturing process, enabling verification of the documentation package to reliably reproduce the builds with great repeatability.
Low Cost Product Engineering
Coghlin Companies provides mechanical, electrical, and software engineering of complete products or subassemblies.
