Mechanical Development Group (MDG) of the Department of Physics specializes in designing, creating, testing, modifying and repairing research equipment and teaching apparatus, i.e., mechanical, electro- and opto-mechanical devices, vacuum chambers and pressure vessels, molds, models, electronics enclosures/test specimens. By coupling the efficiency of CNC machining with the high precision of Wire & Ram EDM we can create unique or difficult-to-fabricate components. We produce prototype or production quantities of fixtures, fabricated assemblies and complex precision parts. Tolerances of +/- .001" are achieved by any of our skilled associates operating in our climate-controlled 14,500 sq. ft. facility. The MDG has three primary support activities: engineering, fabrication and materials sales.
