Custom Automation Equipment Manufacturing for OEMs
PEKO provides automation equipment manufacturing services for OEMs and manufacturers that need custom-built systems for specialized production, assembly, inspection, and test processes.
When standard equipment cannot meet your process, footprint, throughput, or integration requirements, PEKO builds custom automation equipment to your specifications. Our team supports the full build cycle — from requirements review and engineering support through fabrication, assembly, wiring, integration, testing, and shipment.
The result is production-ready equipment built for performance, repeatability, and long-term reliability.
Custom Automation Equipment Built Around Your Process
Every manufacturing environment is different. Product geometry, takt time, operator interaction, traceability requirements, and quality standards all influence what the right equipment needs to do. That is why many manufacturers turn to automation equipment manufacturers when off-the-shelf systems create limitations instead of solving them.
PEKO builds custom automation machinery for applications that require a more tailored approach. Whether you are developing a new machine, outsourcing a build package, or scaling a proven design into production, we provide the manufacturing depth and cross-functional support needed to execute complex machine builds with confidence.
Our work includes complete and partial builds for automation machinery, production systems, test platforms, and integrated electromechanical equipment used across a wide range of industries.
A Practical, End-to-End Approach to Automation Equipment Manufacturing
PEKO’s approach to automation equipment manufacturing is built around execution. We help customers move from requirements and documentation to finished equipment that is assembled, tested, and ready for deployment.
Depending on your program, we can work from:
- functional requirements,
- scope-of-work documentation,
- mechanical and electrical drawings,
- BOMs and schematics,
- build-to-print packages,
- or partially developed machine concepts.
When needed, PEKO can also support programs that involve custom machine design engineering before transitioning into fabrication, build, and integration. From there, our team supports the details that turn designs into manufacturable, working equipment — including sourcing, panel builds, cable routing, electromechanical assembly, controls integration, debug, and factory acceptance testing support.
By bringing these activities together under one roof, PEKO helps reduce coordination gaps, improve build quality, and keep complex projects moving efficiently.
Integrated Capabilities for Automation Equipment Manufacturing
PEKO supports automation equipment manufacturing with the in-house capabilities needed to build complex, production-ready systems from customer requirements and build documentation. Our team can support programs from early prototype builds through full machine assembly and final integration. By coordinating multiple disciplines under one roof, we help reduce handoff risk, improve build quality, and keep projects moving efficiently.
Capabilities include:
- requirements review, specification support, and BOM analysis
- mechanical build support and custom hardware development
- precision machining and sheet metal fabrication
- custom enclosures, racks, chassis, and structural components
- electromechanical assembly and subassembly
- pneumatic and hydraulic integration
- electrical panel builds, wiring, and cable harness assembly
- controls integration and HMI / PLC programming
- prototype builds, testing, debug, and refinement
- factory acceptance testing support and documentation packages
- material purchasing and COTS component sourcing
Custom Automation Equipment We Build
Best-Fit Programs
PEKO is best suited for programs where the equipment is specialized, technically demanding, or closely tied to the customer’s product, process, or production environment. These builds often combine mechanical, electrical, motion, and test or inspection systems that must work together reliably.
As an experienced automation equipment manufacturer, PEKO builds custom automation equipment around defined production requirements, performance goals, and integration needs. That makes us a strong fit for OEMs and manufacturers that need a partner capable of executing complex equipment for real-world production.
Industries Served
PEKO supports automation equipment manufacturing across high-tech and regulated industries where precision, documentation, and repeatability matter. Our experience spans industrial equipment, electronics, robotics, aerospace, defense, medical devices, life sciences, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, telecommunications, renewable energy, and related sectors.
Equipment Types
We build specialized equipment for a wide range of production and process needs, including:
- assembly automation systems
- automated test equipment
- inspection machines
- robotic work cells
- material handling systems
- packaging and dispensing equipment
- pallet handling systems
- warehouse and retrieval systems
- other custom machine automation platforms
These programs typically require more than a standard off-the-shelf solution and are built to support specific manufacturing requirements, workflows, and operating environments.
Integrated Technologies
PEKO integrates the technologies commonly required in modern automation systems, including robotics, laser-based processes, vision systems, controls hardware, and electromechanical subsystems. This cross-functional capability helps support machine builds that require coordinated mechanical, electrical, and controls integration.
Relevant Project Experience
PEKO has completed automation equipment manufacturing projects for a variety of specialized applications where performance, repeatability, and integration are critical. One example is our work on an automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS), which reflects our ability to support complex automation equipment builds for material handling and storage applications.
Why Manufacturers Choose PEKO
Manufacturers evaluating automation equipment manufacturers are typically looking for more than assembly capacity. They need a contract manufacturing partner that can manage complexity, build accurately to documentation, and deliver equipment that performs as intended.
PEKO brings more than 50 years of manufacturing experience to complex equipment builds. Customers choose PEKO because we offer:
- Build-To-Spec Execution: We manufacture equipment to defined requirements, documentation, and performance expectations.
- Cross-Functional Integration: Mechanical fabrication, electrical work, assembly, and test are coordinated within one organization.
- Support for Complex Assemblies: We are experienced with machine builds that combine structure, motion, controls, wiring, and subsystem integration.
- Production-Minded Quality: Equipment is assembled, tested, and reviewed with attention to repeatability, functionality, and handoff readiness.
- Reliable Project Support: From prototype through production-scale builds, we help customers move programs forward with better coordination and visibility.
Automation Equipment Manufacturing FAQs
What is automation equipment manufacturing?
Automation equipment manufacturing is the process of building machinery and integrated systems used to automate production, assembly, inspection, test, packaging, or material handling operations. It typically includes fabrication, electromechanical assembly, wiring, controls integration, and testing.
What is custom automation equipment?
Custom automation equipment is machinery built for a specific product, process, or manufacturing requirement rather than purchased as a standard off-the-shelf system. It is commonly used when standard equipment cannot meet application-specific performance, layout, or integration needs.
What does PEKO provide as an automation equipment manufacturer?
PEKO builds custom automation equipment for OEMs and manufacturers that need specialized systems for assembly, test, inspection, material handling, and related production processes.
