Advanced assembly simulations to demonstrate proof of concept.
A tremendous amount of engineering goes into each of our assemblies, even before production has begun. Our Applications department uses high-end simulation software to demonstrate proof of concept and deliver more accurate estimates. Then our Engineering department uses simulations to fine-tune the assembly process to see how our design will operate on the factory floor.
The simulation process allows our team to discover areas of inefficiency, such as slow points in the assembly line, or areas where automated processes might interfere with each other. We then modify our design to make best use of every resource. As a result, we deliver highly efficient assemblies that often have a smaller factory footprint than our competitors.
Factory automation experience in dozens of industries, worldwide.
Advances in robotics and other automation technologies mean that there are few industries that haven’t already undergone some form of automation. In fact, most industries aren’t yet taking full advantage of the benefits automation can bring.
At Eagle, our experience in factory automation covers nearly every sector, from automotive to health care, agriculture to consumer goods. We not only understand the special needs and challenges of these industries, but have experience working within regulatory standards.
“If you are looking for an automation partner for your company, Eagle has your back. We are stationed in locations around the globe, from the heart of American manufacturing in the Midwest, to the innovation center in California, and a new installation and support center in China. We also have global manufacturing partners stationed in Ireland and Mexico.”

In-process or stand-alone automated testing.
Excellence by design can only be achieved with testing processes that are themselves designed to be foolproof. We can build advanced testing directly into the assembly process, so that any defect is spotted early in the process, or develop stand-alone testing solutions to validate the final product.
We also apply our rigorous testing standards to our own machines. When we develop an assembly, we first test the product output in our own factories to establish a baseline. Then we bring our testing equipment into the field, to each manufacturing plant, to run correlation tests. This ensures that our products perform as well in real-life operating conditions as they did on our manufacturing floor.
97% on-time delivery rate.
We understand that our customers depend on us to keep their production schedule on track. For this reason, we take seriously our own obligation to deliver assemblies to our clients on time and on budget.
We follow several internal protocols to ensure we meet our delivery deadlines. These include “lessons learned” debrief meetings with our team, regular Kaizen sessions to discover areas of continuous improvement, and reviews with 3rd party consultants to unearth areas where our team could be performing better. Together, these processes have helped us achieve a 97% on-time delivery rate—among the highest in our industry.
