Research & Development
LIFE has had an active scientific research program that has systematically addressed problems that have occasionally arisen through the course of its activities. In many ways, we have always had an active research and development division at LIFE™ as those who worked on the factory floor would constantly run into problems and solve them on a regular basis. However, in the mid-90’s we formalized the division and since then LIFE™ has taken on many R&D projects both internally and externally of the company. We actively seek out different and more effective ways of approaching what is thought to be traditional or routine. We firmly believe that only by first excepting the challenge can we overcome it.
Engineering Services
Mechanical Engineering
The engineering discipline of mechanical engineering has been integral to the development of what we do at LIFE™. The principles of engineering, physics, design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems all apply to the fundamentals of our business. It is the branch of engineering that involves the design, production, and operation of machinery. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering disciplines.
Material Engineering
We are fortunate to have a materials engineer on staff. As a foundry with an active research and development division, the knowledge of how materials behave in different environments and stresses is extremely useful.
Design and Architecture
Naval Architectural Design
Over the years LIFE™ has also designed and built a number of vessels and ships ranging from small tug boats to large fishing trawlers. Today LIFE™'s engineers and naval architects continue to design hulls for many different marine applications. Although ship repair and refit projects are much more common for LIFE™ then new build projects LIFE™ is always looking for a new project to take on.
Design and Drafting
Our machine shop has always worked tirelessly to produce precise products. These days we are aided with computer software to help with quality management and consistent products. A complete CAD station and those competent to use the software is priceless in a business like ours. Our drafting capabilities reach from the simple day-to-day production to project specific applications.
