Experience

Our projects have commonly included design or modification of mobile equipment or vehicles, system design and implementation, or structural projects of small and large scale. We have designed and built things that could fit into the palm of your hand to the size of a small neighbourhood! Some of our projects are listed below:

Urban Operations Training Village, CFB Petawawa:

The Urban Operations Training Village involved design verification, fabrication and installation on site of 37 training buildings, each up to 3 stories tall. This project used over 100 standard 40-foot ISO containers to fabricate the buildings and involved 13 major subcontractors for welding, painting, transportation, etc. The project was completed in 7 months.

 

HLVW Mine Blast Armour Kit, National Defence Canada:

The Mine Blast Armour Kit was for the HLVW 16-ton logistics truck. The contract was to design (from scratch), prototype, install and off-road test a level II mine blast armour kit that could be installed in the field using only wrenches and jacks. The project also required full documentation including a complete production drawing package and detailed installation instructions. The project was completed in 3 months and passed all military tests.

 

Sonar Antenna Array Mounting System, Telemus, South Korea:

The Sonar Antenna Array was designed to mount 69 directional antennas on a theoretical spherical surface 11m in radius, with all antennae pointed to the exact center of the sphere. The array structure was approximately 8-feet wide by 16-feet tall and mounted on a flat wall. The mounting system required high precision adjustments (± 0.1mm) in the X, Y and Z-axes, as well as fine angular adjustment (± 0.1°) in the α and β axes. A follow up project to make acoustic dampening for the entire mounting system was also subsequently awarded and completed and delivered to South Korea.

 

Mobile Agent Tactical Sentry (MATS) Vehicle, National Defence Canada:

The MATS Trailer had requirements for extreme ruggedness while maintaining complete street legality, and so had to be designed from scratch. It was designed, 3D modeled, prototyped and three (3) units were fabricated in 4 months. Several more trailers were also built for the military after the initial contract was completed.
