TDI Capabilities

 

The K-State Technology Development Institute has a wide range of production level manufacturing equipment in house. This equipment is used for both prototyping as well as small volume production when quantities are too low to be of interest to larger manufacturers. TDI works with it clients to design and produce products using today's most cutting edge production equipment to ensure that transitioning into large scale manufacturing is a simple process.

The video below provides a quick virtual tour of the equipment contained in the machining and fabrication studio:
