Automation Equipment Manufacturing for Custom Production Systems
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.
