Mechanical Engineering & Design

Lead by strong Mechanical Technical Leads, Sedona has added strong Mechanical partners to the SIP line-up. A focus on Design For Manufacture permeates the Mechanical Engineering and Design philosophy at Sedona, ensuring that products not only look good but meet industry standards for cost-effective design.

Often working hand-in-hand with the Electrical and PCB groups, integrated Mechanical Engineering and Design can be instrumental in meeting aggressive schedules, with less design churn and cycles, resulting in a cost-effective design solution. As with all engineering disciplines at Sedona, our unique business model ensures that Subject Matter Experts are placed on every project.
