What we do
Engineering ideas into manufacture.
ETTLER brings hands-on manufacturing experience to mechanical design. The result is clear thinking, robust detail and designs that work beyond the screen.
Capability
Support where it
makes a difference.
3D CAD & detailing
Production-ready models, assemblies, manufacturing drawings and bills of materials with the detail your workshop needs.
↗Special-purpose machinery
Bespoke equipment, mechanisms and production systems developed around the process, people and environment they need to work within.
↗Design for manufacture
Practical design reviews that reduce complexity, expose risk early and turn difficult ideas into dependable engineering.
↗Swarf & coolant systems
Heavy-duty and below-floor conveyors, bespoke chip bins, modular high-pressure coolant tanks, pumps, filtration and complete swarf-management systems.
↗Project & production support
Structured BOMs, MRP system workflows and delivery planning that help keep engineering information, purchasing and manufacture aligned.
↗How we work
A clear path from
brief to build.
Understand
Establish the operating need, interfaces, constraints and measures of success before design begins.
Engineer
Develop practical concepts, test the critical decisions and remove risk while change is still inexpensive.
Define
Turn the chosen solution into controlled 3D models, drawings, specifications and production-ready BOMs.
Support
Work with purchasing, manufacture and installation to resolve issues, protect quality and keep delivery moving.
Engineering experience
Grounded in the
real world.
Ettler is built on more than 12 years of senior-level engineering experience, taking bespoke industrial equipment from brief through to manufacture and installation.
Our background spans process equipment, precision manufacturing, special-purpose machinery and complete production-support systems—where reliability, safe access, cleanliness and maintainability are designed in from the outset.
Projects range from individual components and modular equipment to complete factory-scale, below-floor conveyor networks, using varying conveyor sizes to serve multiple CNC machines. Our experience also includes heavy-duty conveyors, bespoke chip buckets, high-pressure coolant tanks and integrated swarf- and coolant-management systems.
We work closely with end customers and delivery teams so the complete project is accounted for: controlled bills of materials, MRP requirements, purchasing, production capacity, installation and programme dates. The result is practical engineering shaped by commercial realities and demanding manufacturing environments.

ETTLER
Our name
To plan. To intend.
To design.
ETTLER is drawn from an old northern word: ettle—to aim, plan or design. It reflects an approach to engineering where every decision has a reason and every detail has a purpose.
