Engineering Services at Air-lake Machine

Problem-Solving with Precision

At Air-Lake Machine, engineering is at the heart of everything we do. Whether you're starting with a napkin sketch, a CAD model, or a legacy part with no drawings at all, our engineering team is ready to step in and make it work better, faster, and more cost-effectively. We combine deep industry knowledge with hands-on manufacturing expertise to help you solve real problems and bring your ideas to life with confidence.

From Concept to Completion

Our engineering services are built around one core principle: solutions. Whether you're designing a brand-new component or trying to improve an existing one, we’re here to help you refine, optimize, and deliver. Our team works collaboratively with your designers, purchasing agents, and project leads to ensure every part is manufacturable, functional, and cost-effective before it ever hits the shop floor.

From prototyping to production, we’re with you every step of the way.

Reverse Engineering Done Right

Got a critical part but no documentation? No problem. With the help of our new 3D scanning capabilities, we can reverse engineer even the most complex components quickly and accurately. Our engineers capture every detail and dimension, then rebuild the part digitally to ensure exact replication or even performance enhancements. It’s ideal for legacy equipment, replacement parts, and redesigns where precision and speed are essential.

Design for Manufacturability (DFM)

A great design is only as good as its ability to be manufactured efficiently. That’s why we emphasize Design for Manufacturability throughout our engineering process. We look for opportunities to simplify production, reduce material waste, and streamline machining and assembly — saving you time and money while increasing reliability.

Our engineers are deeply familiar with our in-house machining, welding, and fabrication capabilities, so your designs are tailored for real-world success from day one.

Collaborative, Responsive, and Focused on Your Success

We know your time matters. That’s why we move fast without compromising precision. When you partner with Air-Lake Machine, you’ll have direct access to engineers who are hands-on, proactive, and easy to work with. Whether you're under a tight deadline or working through a complex challenge, our team is ready to respond — and resolve — quickly and effectively.

Integrated with Production for Seamless Execution

Because Air-Lake Machine handles everything from engineering to machining and welding in-house, our engineers can follow your part through every phase of production. That means less room for error, better communication, and faster turnaround times. It also means we can spot and solve problems early before they turn into costly delays.

Engineering That Works as Hard as You Do

When you choose Air-Lake Machine for engineering support, you’re getting more than just design help. You’re getting a team of problem solvers, manufacturers, and innovators who are committed to helping you succeed. Whether it’s a single part or a full-scale production run, we’re here to make it easier, smarter, and stronger.
