About AJ Mechanical Design | Prototype Development & Manufacturing Readiness
Who We Are
AJ Mechanical Design is a prototype design and development firm dedicated to helping entrepreneurs bring their ideas to life. For those without mechanical expertise, we provide the resources to turn “napkin ideas” into fully functional prototypes. Beyond prototyping, we take products to the final stages of manufacturing readiness, creating precise technical drawings and blueprints to ensure seamless production.
​
While we are a woman-owned, minority-owned business, we see ourselves as part of a larger community of creative and ambitious entrepreneurs. Based in Northwest Indiana, we take pride in supporting local businesses and contributing to a thriving small business ecosystem. We are honored to provide services that fuel innovation, strengthen the local economy, and help entrepreneurs succeed.
Our Purpose
At AJ Mechanical Design, our mission is to help innovators and small business owners turn their ideas into reality. We provide expert design, prototyping, and manufacturing readiness to those who may not have the resources or technical expertise to do it on their own. By bridging the gap between concept and production, we make it easier for entrepreneurs to launch their products.
