Learn about what CAD file formats that are commonly used for sharing 2D and 3D CAD designs

If you're looking to up your office tech setup for running CAD modeling software, this is it. We've included everything from best mouse all the way to what computer hardware specs you need for optimal performance

Without the noise of a loud internal combustion engine, you're going to hear new sounds that can be severely distracting. EVs are needing to adapt to this in new ways.  In this post, we take you through some of the newest technology and trends that are becoming increasingly adopted throughout the industry to get closer and closer towards sound-proofing the interior over electric vehicles.

Don’t let your oven look like a wasteland. I’ll take you through how you can avoid this type of disaster in the future with a vast selection of awesome engineering and molding designs developed by some of the best masking engineers in the industry.

Outside of the engineering design of a seal, there are 3 core elements that play a major role in the success of a complex seal.  Once you have a fundamental understanding of each, you'll be well on your way towards producing a seal that meets, or even exceeds, the performance requirements necessary for harsh environments and/or complex sealing applications.

Before diving deep into the complexities of rubber design engineering, tooling, manufacturing, and testing, it's important to get a deep understanding of the core elements that make it work. In this post, we take a deep dive into the basics of rubber shore hardness, how to measure it, and some of the standard applications you'll find in the real world.

If you're still using masking tapes or die-cuts to mask bores or bushings, you're wasting time and money.  In this post we explore why powder coaters, e-coaters, and wet painters are switching to masking sleeves, and what it takes to make them work

Engineering a plastic part to replace a metal component requires expertise in design, material, tooling, injection molding, and validation testing.  In this post, we're going to explore some of the designs that become the go-to for tier-1s and OEMs over the years.

In this post, we highlight one of our Engineers, Joe Spaulding, and his projects with Echo and what he's doing outside of work

Case study of how Echo worked with a hydraulic pump manufacturer to save them $100k annually by converting their metal plate to plastic
