Robot Engineering and Design
From the Ground Up

Why Choose OLogic?

You have this vision of a robot that nobody else has created before. It will help humans do amazing things. Where to start? Who to trust for your robot engineering company? If this seems like a monumental challenge. It is! 

OLogic is frequently asked if we can develop a whole robot and if we can do the robot engineering from the ground up. We have done it several times, and know the entire process from start to finish. OLogic is a robot engineering company. Robotics is one of our cornerstone capabilities. Our team has an incredible depth of knowledge on full robot design. We have developed a reliable project plan of several revisions which can get you from napkin sketch to robot, with usable iterations in between.  This is the reason that OLogic’s motto is “Robotics from Concept to Reality”

There are several phases involved in the development of a custom robot that is functional, has the right aesthetic for your brand, is compliant with all the necessary safety standards and is easily manufacturable. OLogic has the right team of engineers, project managers and vendor partners to take your product successfully to market.

Product Planning

The first step in any robot engineering company design is putting together a plan. OLogic will use any available existing documentation you have and organize discussions with you to build up a document of requirements that will serve as a guideline for the design. This allows the teams to line up on design goals. We will then create a specification plan. Included are things like electrical and software block diagrams to outline how different parts will connect, preliminary component selection and bill of materials to provide an idea of long term product costs. This gives you an outline of the various mechanical technologies we intend to use. Whole robot engineering is one of our greatest strengths! Once the plan is outlined and approved, we can jump into the design knowing everyone agrees on the path forward.

Electrical Engineering

OLogic’s original niche as robot engineering company was designing the electronics inside customer robotics projects. It’s one thing to be able to do electrical engineering of products, but robots are uniquely difficult because they frequently need things like real-time control and communication of motors and sensor networks.  Robot engineering is combining all these disciplines together. Electronics also need the ability to be easily testable in the field and designed for manufacturing. OLogic has built up an incredible depth of knowledge after years and years of doing robotic projects of what works and what doesn’t. Many robotics companies have EE’s on their staff that may have worked on one or two robotics projects in their past, but OLogic has worked on more than 300. Why wouldn’t you want our advice when planning or optimizing the electronics on a robot?

Industrial Design & Mechanical Engineering

OLogic has in-house industrial design and mechanical engineering capabilities, which allow us to go from photorealistic renders for a pitch deck to production ready plastic components and sheet metal chassis. Our areas of expertise include aesthetic industrial design, comprehensive CAD development and mechanical engineering. This includes materials and manufacturing method selection, prototype development and fabrication, in house 3D printing, and thermal analysis & mitigation. All of these in-house capabilities allow robot engineering companies like OLogic to design and refine your robot through a series of revisions, iterating until the design matches up with your unique vision.

Software

OLogic operates under the philosophy of “iterate early and often”. Our goal of building multiple revisions of the prototype along the route to a final product design allows us to test early versions of the robot as quickly as possible, and learn what needs to change or what features are missing. In order to make this happen, OLogic has developed an expertise in materials selection and procurement, along with a strong network of vendors for quick turn prototype part making and PCB fabrication. We also have a team of engineers at the ready to build cables, assemble boards and build up prototype units quickly and efficiently to make for the best robot engineering.

Compliance Testing

OLogic can help with designing for compliance, and compliance testing with our local test lab partners. Our expertise includes designing PCBs and mechanical hardware for compliance and compliance testing.  OLogic can perform IPC compliant reworks, board assembly and testing as well as preventative EMI prescans and mitigation plans.  You get support through the product certification process for FCC, UL and CE product certifications.

 Shipping a hardware product is a lot like climbing Mount Everest.  How can you get to the top without a good team of Sherpas helping you?  You need a good robot engineering company!

Design For Manufacturing

Part of the process of robot engineering is building a quality product that you can launch with ease and confidence. It’s not just product development. It’s looking at the whole product development from the standpoint of manufacturing and ease of assembly. With our help, you can turn your product idea from a design concept, through development and product iterations, all the way to manufacturing. OLogic has pushed many whole products through manufacturing. We have a solid understanding of designing or updating a robot for easy manufacture, assembly, and maintenance.


Testing and Fixture Design:
Once the design meets compliance standards and is ready to be manufactured, OLogic can support you through developing a test procedure. We can design and build test fixtures to simplify sample testing for your custom PCBAs in the factory. OLogic always designs PCBs with test points for easy testability, whether the ultimate plan is to use a test fixture or not.


Manufacturing:
Having completed a design for you, you own all the IP and design files for your product. At this point, we can even help you build it by working closely with our proven manufacturing partners. Or you can choose someone you know and we’ll help you get up and running as fast as possible to ensure a successful launch of the Product.
