Mac’ s dedication to moving forward is exemplified by its keenness to embrace technology to boost the design and build processes of its vehicles. Andy offers examples:“ Four years ago, we established a small subsidiary within the business focused on laser cutting and CNC pressing. This is because we had reached a turning point where we were outsourcing a significant amount of work, and we wanted to bring more of it in-house which gives us 100 percent control of quality. Since then, we have continued to develop our capabilities, implementing the full SolidWorks suite. Today, we have engineers who utilize this software daily, which helps us design new products in a virtual environment. This allows us to visualize concepts, conduct stress analyses, and determine functionality before any physical prototype is built. Constantly looking to improve, we leverage as much modern technology as we can to enhance and accelerate our processes.”
