Company Founded, First Machine Installations
EDS was founded to provide mechanical and electrical support for automotive suppliers. First projects: machine installation, rigging, leveling, electrical hookup, and commissioning for new production lines.
This established EDS's core model: multi-discipline engineering support under a single team, plus in-house precision machining for custom parts and tooling.
GF6 Transmission Line, 24/7 Production Support
EDS provided 24/7 CNC support for a major transmission program, maintaining spindle uptime and troubleshooting control faults across day and night shifts.
Multi-year engagement that proved EDS could sustain critical operations under zero-downtime requirements. In-house machining expanded to custom fixtures, jigs, and replacement components.
Multi-Client Expansion, CNC, Automation & EV Integration
General Motors, Extended CNC support to multiple GM facilities across Mexico for machining center diagnostics and production optimization.
Eaton Corporation, Dedicated CNC support team for a motorhousing machining line. Program troubleshooting, parameter optimization, and process adjustments to maintain CPK requirements.
Ford Motor Company, Installation and commissioning of automation equipment for a new EV powertrain project across multiple machine platforms.
Throughout this period, EDS continued to grow its precision manufacturing division, engineering and producing custom tooling, machine components, and structural parts in-house to support project timelines across all three clients.
New Plant Commissioning, San Luis Potosi, CNC Commissioning & Conveyor Integration
CNC Installation & Geometric Verification (Iron Gray Project), EDS managed the installation and commissioning of CNC equipment for Eaton's new manufacturing facility in San Luis Potosi. Machines with Cincinnati, Heller, and DMG MORI controls were rigged, leveled from the base pads, and geometrically verified for runout, parallelism, and squareness. Identified APC repeatability issues on older machines and retrofitted air-pressure seating sensors to verify pallet position before cycle start.
Program Optimization, G54 work coordinate adjustments and program modifications across Cincinnati, Heller, and DMG MORI platforms to stabilize dimensional output.
Conveyor System Integration, Full conveyor integration connecting multiple machining operations: conveyor lines, pneumatic grippers, gantry transfer, safety fencing, and light curtain interlocking. OSHA and NOM compliant.
Full-Scale CNC, Robotics & Systems Integration, Ford EV Program
Geometric Verification & Machine Qualification, Full geometric verification on multiple machine platforms: spindle runout, linear guide alignment, squareness checks, ultrasonic belt tension testing, and spindle vibration analysis.
CNC Support Team, Dedicated multi-shift support for 5-axis HELLER and GROB machining centers: real-time diagnostics, program optimization, and preventive maintenance.
Automation & Schunk Integration, Schunk gripper integration and ballscrew ultrasonic inspection across the machining area.
CMM & Quality Systems, Zeiss CMM metrology support for PPAP and SPC requirements.
Robotics Integration, ABB robot integration: cell programming, EOAT setup, safety zone configuration, and production validation.
Custom Engineering & Material Handling, Poka-yoke stations, vision systems, traceability integration, plus custom material handling equipment.
Siemens Energy Partnership, Heavy-Duty Fabrication & Ergonomic Solutions
Workstation Ergonomic Accessories, Custom ergonomic workstation solutions for personnel safety and efficiency.
Heavy-Capacity Material Handling, Engineered heavy-capacity material handling equipment including 20-ton rated transport systems.
5-Meter Industrial Pallets, Industrial pallets with certified lifting points, structural welding, and full quality testing.
EHS Documentation, Complete EHS-compliant documentation packages delivered with all equipment.
