Engineering Services
Integrated Services for
Real Operational Challenges
From problem analysis and engineering design to implementation, automation and long-term support.
Sanota helps industries solve technical and operational challenges through coordinated engineering and technology services. Depending on the requirement, a solution may combine mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic systems, automation, IoT, software, fabrication, installation, commissioning and lifecycle support.
Consult • Design • Develop • Integrate • Implement • Maintain
More Than a Single Service
Industrial challenges rarely belong to only one technical discipline.
A machinery problem may require mechanical modifications, new electrical controls, automation, software monitoring and ongoing maintenance. A new product may require concept development, engineering design, prototyping, testing and production support.
Sanota brings the required capabilities together around the client's operational need. This provides clients with a more coordinated path from the initial requirement to a practical working solution.
Service Pillars
How Sanota Can Support You
Training & Technical Capability Development
Sanota helps client teams understand, operate and maintain engineering and technology systems more effectively.
Training can be provided as part of a project handover or as a separate technical-capability programme.

Services may include
Engineering Consultation & Problem Analysis
Every successful solution begins with a clear understanding of the requirement.
Sanota works with clients to assess operational problems, technical limitations, improvement opportunities and new project concepts. The objective is to define the actual need before recommending machinery, automation, software or other technologies.
Typical Client Needs
We know there is a problem, but we are not sure what solution is required.
Our current process is inefficient.
We want to improve production but need technical guidance.
We have an idea that requires engineering evaluation.
Services may include
System & Product Design
Sanota develops engineering concepts into clearly defined systems, machinery and product designs.
The design process considers functionality, operating conditions, safety, maintainability, integration requirements and future scalability. Depending on the project, the work may involve mechanical, electrical, electronic, automation, IoT and software design.
Typical Client Needs
We need a system designed around our operation.
We want to develop a new machine or product.
Our existing concept needs further engineering.
Several technologies must work together as one system.
Services may include
Custom Machinery & Product Development
When standard equipment does not fully address an operational requirement, Sanota can develop machinery, equipment and products around the client's specific need.
The service can cover the journey from initial concept and engineering design to fabrication, assembly, testing, installation and improvement.
Typical Client Needs
The machinery available in the market does not meet our requirement.
We need equipment designed for a particular product or process.
We want to convert an idea into a working prototype.
We need to improve or localize an existing machine.
Services may include
Automation, IoT & Digital Integration
Sanota helps clients automate operations, connect equipment and gain better visibility over performance.
Solutions can combine industrial automation, sensors, control systems, connectivity, cloud platforms, dashboards, alerts, reports and software applications. Where software and advanced digital capability are required, Sanota works with Knoweb, an affiliated IT company under common ownership.
Typical Client Needs
We want to reduce manual work.
We need better control over a process.
We want to monitor machinery or facilities remotely.
We need alerts, reports or dashboards.
Our engineering system requires a software component.
Services may include
Retrofit, Refurbishment & Modernization
Existing machinery and systems may continue to have operational value even when components, controls or technologies have become outdated.
Sanota assesses existing equipment and develops practical modernization solutions intended to improve reliability, productivity, safety, maintainability or digital visibility.
Typical Client Needs
Our machinery is mechanically useful, but the controls are outdated.
Replacement parts are becoming difficult to obtain.
We want to automate an existing machine.
We need better performance without replacing the complete system.
We want to add monitoring to existing equipment.
Services may include
Project Execution, Installation & Commissioning
Sanota coordinates the practical delivery of engineering and technology solutions from approved design to operational handover.
This service brings together project planning, procurement coordination, fabrication, system integration, installation, testing and commissioning.
Typical Client Needs
We require one team to coordinate several technical disciplines.
We need a complete system installed and commissioned.
Our project includes machinery, controls, IoT and software.
We need support from design through to working operation.
Services may include
AMC, Maintenance & Lifecycle Support
Engineering support should not end when a project is commissioned.
Sanota provides maintenance and lifecycle services intended to protect reliability, reduce avoidable interruptions and identify opportunities for improvement. Support is available for systems developed by Sanota and for eligible third-party machinery, automation, electrical, control, IoT and software systems following an initial technical assessment.
Typical Client Needs
We need reliable ongoing support after project completion.
Our machinery requires a preventive-maintenance programme.
We need one support arrangement for an integrated system.
We require maintenance support for equipment supplied by another company.
We want to reduce breakdown risk and plan future upgrades.
