Multidisciplinary Engineering Services

Providing Engineering Services

Do you need custom Engineering? Don't let the word "custom" scare you. The word "custom" to us simply means that we will provide you with a solution that perfectly suits your needs and fits within your budget. We do everything under one roof by ourselves from design, prototyping, development, metal cutting, fabrication, welding, assembly, electronics, programming, and testing. Since we do it all from one location (right outside of Raleigh, NC USA) our costs and lead times are unbeatable.

We have combined our engineering pages into one engineering page. Most of our robots and projects cover multiple disciplines, so we figured it would be best to combine the services to one page. Whatever your engineering needs, let SuperDroid Robots help you.Your custom engineering project can be as simple as figuring out the right wire size to a complete design and build of a robot. Let us help you today! Please fill out our custom engineering services request form.

Mechanical Engineering

SuperDroid Robot's main focus is mechanical engineering. All the robots we provide have been mechanically engineered from beginning to end, moving through processes of conceptual design, 3D solid modelling, strength analysis, thermal analysis, welding, machining, and fabrication support. The same people that design the robots actually make them.

About SuperDroid Robots

Prototyping

Take your design from concept to reality. Many companies offer mechanical and electrical design services, but can't fabricate your prototype. We specialize in designing and fabricating prototypes, robots, and any mechatronic application. Our team of engineers has the resources, skills and experience to create a prototype that perfectly matches your project's requirements. Contact us today for a price quote on your next prototype.

Engineering Success Stories

Here's a look at a few of our custom projects. We are able to design and fabricate any robot, mechantronic device, or prototype.

RemCAT Custom Treaded Robot

We built designed and fabricated a radioactivity detection robot for Energy Solutions. The rob ot was equipped with a WiFi control board so it could be controlled over a network connection. 4 cameras were mounted for a broader viewing area. A Compass and GPS were used for position location and an accelerometer was added to measure proper acceleration.

WiFi Server Robot for a University

We built a custom WiFi robot with a built in server for Texas Tech University with the following features: a 5 axis arm, pan/tilt camera, and fixed drive camera. Each function can be controlled by a different user. The robot runs Ubuntu and serves up the control interface and videos to the users.

Pipe Inspector

Weighs less than 2lbs fit into a 5" Pipe. IR Camera with LED headlights, wired or tethered mode controlled from a PC. Made for inspection of Pipes and temperature monitoring.

Industrial X-Ray Transporter

2200lbs, 7ft long, 4ft wide, 3ft high. 1ft wide Tracks. Twin 7.5HP Motors. 2000lb+ payload capacity. 10,000lb+ towing capacity. Watch the YouTube video.

Ghost Hunter Chamber Base

Platform designed to hold a 3'x3'x6ft tall 200lbs chamber. Robot Weights ~200lbs with long run batteries, AC inverter, built in charger. Measures 3ft x 3ft x ~1ft tall.

Camera Boom Robot

This robot was a camera boom mounted a 6WD robot platform with a 360+ degree swivel base, and a 110+ degree tilting head. The robot was able to look over obstacles ~4 feet tall. The robot was WiFi controlled with an IP camera mounted on the top of the arm.
