About Ascent Design

Ascent Design's experience spans every stage of product development, from concept to high volume production. Ralph Burns, licensed Colorado Professional Engineer and President of Ascent Design, has successfully developed flight hardware, medical devices, consumer and instrumentation products and manufacturing tooling.

Concept Feasibility - Need to create a quick proof of principle? Estimate costs? Proven feasiblity allows you to make sound business decisions.

Specification - Forward-minded goals alleviate project ambiguity. We'll work together to specify project requirements and determine exactly what you want to produce.

Design - Ascent brings creativity to the table. Upside-down, inside-out and backward approaches will be tried to build novel solutions that include detailed design analysis.

Prototyping - Experience with numerous fabrication methods enables us to pinpoint the best processes for your project. The prototype we create will meet your specifications and let you advance the project with confidence.

Pre-production - Ascent creates, validates and documents production manufacturing processes and tooling.

Pilot to Volume Production - Ascent will ramp from first production run to full-scale manufacturing, guiding production from the first build and respond to evolving production volumes.
