Advanced Manufacturing — ZAP Engineering

Advanced Manufacturing

ZAP engineers facility systems for advanced manufacturing technologies.

Detailed Engineering for First-of-a-Kind Manufacturing Systems

ZAP develops the detailed facility engineering required to install and operate first-of-a-kind process systems and new production equipment. Working from client and equipment-vendor requirements, our civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, and controls teams carry projects from early design through construction.

We support a range of advanced manufacturing projects, from capacity additions on proven production lines to new process technologies entering commercial operation. Across every project scope, ZAP brings the engineering depth to move complex manufacturing investments into production.
