Mexx Overview

What Mexx does

Mexx Engineering provides practical engineering and consulting that turns concepts into buildable, commissioning-ready outcomes. We work across mining, industrial automation, and food/agro processing—bringing EPCM discipline, integration thinking, and robotics-ready design into the same delivery pathway.

We help clients define scope, reduce risk early, and move from feasibility through detailed design and commissioning support with clear deliverables at each stage.

Where we work best

Mining and heavy industry

We support upgrades, new installations, and brownfield works where constructability, maintainability, safety, and commissioning risk matter.

Typical focus areas include:

  • Modular plant areas and skid-based systems
  • Reagent and dosing systems (containment, access, maintainability)
  • Bulk transfer, mixing and distribution skids
  • Pumping and slurry services (interfaces and support systems)
  • Materials handling interfaces and transfer points
  • Controls and instrumentation integration planning from day one

Automation and controls

We design and integrate automation with a focus on reliability and reduced commissioning pain. We support control system definition, integration planning, and implementation support—especially where existing plant and new systems must work together cleanly.

Typical focus areas include:

  • Controls architecture and integration strategy
  • Instrumentation strategy and I/O definition
  • Control philosophy and functional narratives
  • Safety concept support and commissioning planning
  • Simulation-first / test-first approaches where practical

Food and agro processing (no “meat” references)

We support process and packaging line engineering with a focus on throughput, reliability, maintainability, and hygienic/cleanable design outcomes.

Typical focus areas include:

  • Line layout and flow improvements
  • Bottleneck identification and debottlenecking
  • Equipment integration and utility/services definition
  • Automation integration for consistency and traceability
  • Commissioning and handover planning

How Mexx works

We use a practical, engineering-led approach designed to keep projects aligned as complexity and spend increase.

Engineering-led
Buildable outcomes: practical layouts, maintainable access, clear deliverables.

Modular mindset
Package plant areas and automation into repeatable modules that scale and deploy faster.

Automation-first
Integrate controls, instrumentation, and interfaces early to avoid rework and reduce commissioning risk.

Handover-ready
Testing, documentation, and operational readiness are designed in—not bolted on at the end.

Typical project stages and deliverables

1) Concept and feasibility

  • Options and concept layouts
  • Basis of design / scope definition
  • CAPEX inputs and risk notes

2) FEED / package definition

  • Design development to support vendor engagement
  • Datasheets and technical specifications
  • Integration planning (controls, instrumentation, safety)

3) Detailed design and IFC-ready packages

  • GA drawings and layouts
  • Vendor package documentation and interface definition
  • Constructability and maintainability reviews

4) Automation and integration support

  • Control philosophy and functional narrative
  • I/O lists and integration notes
  • Commissioning approach and test planning

5) Commissioning and operational readiness support

  • FAT/SAT support
  • Test plans and handover documentation
  • Practical punch-listing and commissioning assistance

MexxBots — collaborative automation overview (public-safe)

MexxBots are collaborative automation solutions designed to make production safer, more consistent, and easier to scale. We focus on practical deployment: simple teaching, repeatable results, and integration that fits existing workflows.

Core solutions

MigBot — collaborative welding automation
A cobot-based welding package designed for consistent results with simplified teaching and straightforward integration.

LaserBot — collaborative laser welding automation
A cobot-based laser welding solution aimed at improving productivity and repeatability while reducing exposure and process risk.

PaintBot — collaborative coating / finishing automation
A cobot-based finishing solution designed to support repeatable application and safer work practices in coating and surface finishing tasks.

Deployable options
Where appropriate, systems can be configured for portable deployment to support onsite work and fast redeployment.

Typical outcomes

  • improved consistency and reduced rework
  • better safety through reduced exposure
  • faster rollout via modular deployment
  • easier maintenance and troubleshooting with clearer systems design

What we need from you to scope quickly

To get to a useful answer fast, share:

  • your site/location and industry context
  • the outcome you want (throughput, safety, quality, uptime, compliance)
  • constraints (space, utilities, access, shutdown windows)
  • what exists today (photos, drawings, tag lists, basic process description)
  • timeframe and any key stakeholders/vendors
