Mechanical Engineering

In the field of mechanical engineering, we support companies whose innovations lie in design, manufacturing, and process control. Particularly with mechanical systems, equipment, and production solutions, a clear technical definition often determines whether a property right will actually hold up later on.

We help you identify the technically essential features and translate them into a scope of protection that makes economic sense.

Delivering What Matters.

Typical areas include mechanical and plant engineering, process engineering, and automation and control solutions. These often involve functional units, assemblies, tools, and components, as well as manufacturing and machining processes, vacuum and high-vacuum technology, measurement technology, and motors and drive concepts.

We consider not only the specific design but also variants and obvious workarounds to ensure that your protection is not unnecessarily narrow.

Strategic advice backed by experience.

Many projects are interdisciplinary, such as those at the interface with electronics, sensor technology, or software. We ensure that these interfaces are consistently reflected in the application and that your protection strategy is coherent – nationally, across Europe, and internationally.

If you’d like, we can discuss your project and outline the appropriate intellectual property strategy for development, market entry, and portfolio building.
