Mechanical Engineering

Engineering
Beyond
The Standard.

Mechanical engineering at Octane is about understanding how a vehicle works, identifying what needs to change and building a practical solution that works as a complete system.

Engineering Mindset

When The
Standard
Isn’t Enough.

Not every mechanical problem has a catalogue solution. Some applications require components to be adapted, redesigned, fabricated or integrated differently.

Octane approaches these situations by looking at the vehicle as a complete mechanical system rather than simply replacing individual parts.

The objective is always a solution that is practical, mechanically sound and suited to the vehicle’s intended application.

Engineering Capability

What We
Engineer.

Engineering work can involve individual components, complete systems or the integration of multiple mechanical disciplines into one working vehicle.
01 / DESIGN
+

Mechanical
Design

Developing practical mechanical solutions around the requirements of the vehicle and application.

02 / FABRICATE

Custom
Fabrication

Building components and structures where an off-the-shelf solution does not exist.

03 / INTEGRATE

System
Integration

Making different mechanical components and systems work together correctly.

04 / ADAPT

Vehicle
Adaptation

Modifying mechanical systems to suit unusual requirements or specialised applications.

05 / DRIVETRAIN

Drivetrain
Engineering

Mechanical consideration of engines, gearboxes, driveline components and their interaction.

06 / SOLVE

Problem
Solving

Finding workable answers to difficult mechanical problems that do not have straightforward solutions.

The Process

Think.
Design.
Build.

Good engineering starts before the tools come out.

The problem must first be understood, the requirements considered and the mechanical consequences of a proposed solution evaluated.

Only then does fabrication, modification or integration begin.

  • Understand The Application
  • Identify The Mechanical Problem
  • Determine The Required Solution
  • Design Or Adapt Components
  • Fabricate And Modify
  • Integrate The Complete System
  • Test And Refine
Practical Engineering

Built For
Real Vehicles.

Engineering is not only about creating something that works on paper. It is about creating a mechanical solution that survives real-world use, fits the vehicle and performs the job it was designed to do.

That is the standard Octane works toward.

Why Engineering At Octane

More Than
Parts.

01

Understand

The complete mechanical problem is considered before a solution is chosen.

02

Design

Solutions are developed around the actual vehicle and its requirements.

03

Fabricate

Components can be adapted or fabricated when standard parts are not suitable.

04

Integrate

The final objective is a complete mechanical system that works together.
