Our dedicated engineering team collaborates closely with you, our valued customer, to tailor specifications and provide design support, regardless of complexity, ensuring your finished product meets exact requirements.

Key Features of Our Engineering Services:

  • Expertise and Experience: Drawing upon years of expertise, our engineers specialize in product design, control systems, and application testing, ensuring your project's success from concept to production.

  • Application Testing: We conduct rigorous application testing under real-world conditions to guarantee compliance with manufacturer specifications, emissions standards, and warranty acceptance, ensuring trouble-free operation.

  • Customer-Centric Approach: Customer satisfaction is our priority. We offer tailored assistance, whether collaborating with your engineering team or providing complete engine package design/engineering to ensure seamless integration and optimal performance.

Engineering Capabilities Highlights:

  • Solidworks CAD Software: Solidworks 3D CAD design software enables us to design and analyze complex packaging quickly and efficiently while reducing costs and improving quality. Working in a 3D design environment also allows our engineers and customers to better visualize space, and access. 

  • Solidworks PDM (Product Date Management): By using Solidworks data management software we are able to efficiently control our data in a single system which allows our engineers to manage and collaborate on product development.

  • Generator Load Bank: Our load bank has the capability to load test generator sets from 5 kw to 450 kw.
  • Design Verification Tools: We employ a range of design verification tools and capabilities to ensure accuracy and reliability throughout the engineering process.

  • Dynamometer Test Cell: We have a fully instrumented test cell with the capabilities to load test power units from 11 hp to 1000 hp in a controlled environment.

  • Field Application Test Kits: These are portable application test kits that allow us to fully instrument and test any application under normal operation conditions to ensure it meets manufacturer’s application requirements.

Application Review FAQ

WHAT IS AN APPLICATION REVIEW?

An engineering service offered by Bell Power Systems, including a series of field tests & OEM product documentation, to ensure the engine you purchased from us has been installed according to manufacturer’s application standards.

WHY DO WE PERFORM APPLICATION REVIEWS?

Engine manufacturers require it for any new engine application to ensure 1) proper performance, 2) emissions compliance, & 3) engine warranty.

WHEN DO WE PERFORM APPLICATION REVIEWS?

As soon as you have finished installing your first preproduction engine, have finished designing and assembling the piece of equipment to the point where it runs and can operate under normal conditions, but before regular production begins.

HOW LONG DOES AN APPLICATION REVIEW TAKE?

Most reviews can be conducted in 1 day on standard, pre-engineered power units.  OEM supplied systems require additional testing & any further modifications could require additional time and possible retesting.

HOW IS AN APPLICATION REVIEW SCHEDULED?

Please communicate project status including expected completion date with your Bell Power Systems Area Manager regularly, starting from the time the engine is delivered. Complete the Application Reporting Form and return to Bell Power Systems Engineering Department as soon as possible.

WHAT MUST BE PROVIDED TO PERFORM AN APPLICATION REVIEW?

Be capable of operating the equipment under normal conditions and loads at a location that replicates a job site or a customer’s site. During testing, the equipment will need to work at the load cycles it was designed for. Please ensure the equipment is 100% complete as it would be built in full production when we arrive. The application review should be performed at a minimum ambient temperature of 70 degrees F or data may be inconclusive and require retesting to meet application specification acceptance.

Our professional staff is ready to assist you with your drivetrain and diesel engine requirements in whatever market you serve. Our skilled engineers can custom design products to fit your specific application needs and our production team is experienced and well versed in application and assembly.
