Schaner Designs provides modular industrial automation services built to support scalable, repeatable machine design.
We work with manufacturers, integrators, and product teams to develop automation systems and components that reduce engineering effort while enabling long-term growth.

Our services are designed to complement our modular product families—starting with SDLA linear actuators—while remaining flexible enough to integrate into existing automation environments.

• Modular Automation System Design

Design of automation systems using modular, reusable architectures that support scalability, expansion, and long-term maintainability.

• SDLA Linear Actuator Integration

Integration of SDLA linear actuators into custom machines or standardized platforms, including mechanical layout, mounting strategies, and system-level considerations.

• Custom Automation Development

Development of purpose-built automation solutions when standard components require adaptation or extension to meet application-specific requirements.

• Automation Platform & Architecture Consulting

Guidance on developing internal automation platforms, standardized machine designs, and component strategies that reduce duplicated engineering effort.

• Prototype to Production Support

Support across the full development lifecycle—from early concepts and prototyping through refinement and production-ready automation.

• Documentation & Handoff

Clear mechanical documentation and integration guidance to support internal teams, system integrators, and long-term maintenance.
