Precision Engineering for Helical Coiling Innovation Support
Client / Industry: RoboHelix Manufacturing — Automotive & Electronics Role: Mechanical Design & Manufacturing Drafting
Overview
In an industry where micron-level precision defines product performance, KEVOS® partnered on the development of RoboHelix — a next-generation helical coiling machine engineered to produce fine-wire coils with uncompromising accuracy for automotive and electronics applications.
Tasked with translating advanced engineering concepts into production-ready reality, our team delivered the complete suite of manufacturing documentation that enabled global suppliers to fabricate and assemble the machine to exact specifications.
Approach
Working in SolidWorks, our designers developed parametric 3D models that evolved iteratively alongside the engineering team — balancing performance, manufacturability, and adaptability. Every component was modelled to anticipate downstream production realities, reducing rework and accelerating supplier onboarding.
The resulting manufacturing drawing package was built to ISO 128 global standards and included multi-view geometry, dimensional tolerances, material and surface-finish callouts, and process notes for welding and machining — a single source of truth across the supply chain.
Solution & Impact
The most demanding challenge — accurately representing the coiling mechanism's complex curvature — was resolved through detailed calculations, prototype validation, and close engineering collaboration. A three-tier QA protocol (drafter self-check, peer review, senior engineer sign-off) ensured every drawing left our studio production-ready.
The RoboHelix machine is now fully operational, manufacturing helical coils that meet the project's stringent quality benchmarks — delivered on schedule and to specification.
Key Highlights
- Complete ISO 128–compliant manufacturing drawing package for global supplier fabrication
- Parametric SolidWorks modelling enabling agile design iteration
- Three-stage quality assurance protocol ensuring zero-defect documentation
- On-time delivery supporting an uninterrupted production schedule
- Successful build and deployment of a precision coiling machine now in active operation
