Mechanical Engineering Consultants

At Environmentally Sound, we specialise in delivering environmentally robust mechanical engineering solutions for systems that must perform reliably under extreme and dynamic conditions. Our multidisciplinary team of mechanical engineering consultants, vibration specialists, and noise control experts deliver tailored services across design, testing, troubleshooting, and optimisation.

Whether you're building new equipment, resolving persistent failures, or enhancing product resilience in harsh environments, our engineering consultancy ensures your systems are fit for purpose, compliant, and built to last.

Our Mechanical Engineering Services

Mechanical Design & System Engineering

We provide complete mechanical design services—from initial concept and modelling to detailed component design, prototyping, and production support. We design for performance, durability, maintainability, and noise/vibration resilience.

Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

We use advanced FEA tools to simulate stress, strain, vibration, dynamic loads, mode shapes, fatigue, and thermal effects. This enables us to validate designs, optimise structures, and identify failure risks before physical testing or deployment.

Machine & Product Improvement

We troubleshoot underperforming machines and systems, then implement improvements in design, materials, assembly, or operation. The result is better reliability, longer service life, and greater overall efficiency.

Failure Analysis & Root Cause Investigation

Unexpected breakdowns require detailed investigation. We identify mechanical failure modes caused by vibration, fatigue, overload, or misalignment and develop corrective engineering solutions to eliminate recurrence.

Measurement & Physical Testing

We conduct on-site and lab-based mechanical testing, including stress/strain measurement, dynamic response testing, modal analysis, and system characterisation. This real-world data supports accurate model updates and better engineering decisions.

Mechanical Integrity & Compliance Assessment

We assess mechanical integrity for both new designs and aging assets. Services include structural audits, safety compliance checks (e.g., CE marking, ISO standards), and design verifications for critical components.

Vibration Consulting Services

Vibration Analysis & Diagnostics

We analyse vibration data to detect imbalance, misalignment, bearing wear, and resonance. Our vibration engineers apply advanced tools for both troubleshooting and long-term condition monitoring.

Modal Analysis & Dynamic Response

We determine natural frequencies and vibration modes to avoid resonance, improve design robustness, and optimise damping strategies. Both experimental and analytical methods are used.

Vibration Isolation & Damping Design

We design custom vibration isolation and damping systems, including mounts, tuned mass dampers, and absorptive materials to protect equipment and reduce transmitted forces.

Rotor Dynamics & Balancing

We perform detailed rotor dynamic assessments and field balancing for rotating machinery to eliminate vibration sources and reduce wear on critical components.

Noise & Acoustic Engineering Services

Noise Control Engineering

Our consultants specialise in reducing airborne and structure-borne noise across a range of systems — HVAC, power plants, vehicles, and machinery. We design solutions that enhance acoustic comfort and meet compliance standards.

Noise Radiation & Acoustic Modelling

Using simulation and measurement, we model noise propagation and radiation from mechanical systems, then engineer enclosures, barriers, and treatments to control it.

Sound Power/Pressure Testing

We carry out standardised acoustic testing to quantify emissions and assess compliance with regulatory thresholds (e.g., ISO 3744, OSHA).

Sound Quality & Product Perception

For products where noise impacts user perception (e.g., vehicles, appliances), we engineer improvements not just in noise reduction but also in tonal quality and acoustic character.

Maintenance & Lifecycle Services

Maintenance Strategy Development (RCM, FMECA)

We help clients build effective, risk-based maintenance strategies using industry best practices like Reliability-Centered Maintenance and Failure Modes & Effects Analysis.

Condition Monitoring & Predictive Maintenance

Using vibration, noise, and fatigue metrics, we monitor system health in real time to anticipate faults and plan maintenance before failure occurs—saving downtime and costs.

Mechanical Model Updating

We refine simulation models based on real-world test data, ensuring accurate prediction of system behaviour over time—especially under varying loading or environmental conditions.

Asset Life Extension & Reliability Engineering

We assess legacy systems to determine remaining life, recommend design or process modifications, and implement upgrades to extend operational reliability.

Fabrication of Vibration/Noise Control Components

We design and fabricate custom components such as vibration isolators, acoustic enclosures, and fatigue-resistant elements—delivering complete engineering + build solutions.
