The retainer is for consultations, over the phone or through video conferences, in person at our facilities, or by email. The retainer is not meant to carry on full projects but to support and guide you in getting them completed successfully. We can do parts of such projects at prevailing rates or based on pre-approved proposals and quotes.
Things we can do for you for an entire year free of charge as part of the retainer include discussing applications you intend to develop, reviewing parts you get asked to quote, assessing materials to which to switch, reviewing tooling and machinery you plan to try, answering questions by personnel, clients, suppliers, reviewing documents you plan to implement, teaming with you to secure projects, to name but a few.

Within your retainer, we will answer any question you will have for an entire year, in relation to:
In today’s competitive marketplace in all industrial sectors, manufacturers must continuously enhance quality, reduce cost, and accelerate delivery processes. However, most manufacturing firms cannot meet these challenges with internal resources alone (for a lack of advanced laboratory equipment, powerful FEA and CFD software, and specialized personnel). As an alternative, they sadly recourse to trial-and-error. A better option is collaborating with a ‘center of expertise’ that can quickly and efficiently, apply skilled people, efficient tools, and demonstrated technologies to meet industry challenges. WIDL is such ‘center of expertise’, strategically located in Windsor, ON, ready to promptly, methodically, and cost-effectively, assist manufactures and their suppliers and clients. Besides, production floors inherently generate 10 to 20% of scrap in terms of flash, runners, bad parts, test parts, etc. WIDL is positioned to regenerate post-industrial scrap and post-consumer products for repeat manufacturing (circular economy), going through material segregation, thermoset rubber devulcanization and compounding, thermoplastic blending, to return reclaimed materials to their generators, or use the new compounds and resins in contract manufacturing or to produce new products.
Reverse-engineering, compound development, fluid compatibility and ageing, characteristics for FEA and CFD modeling, etc.
Mechanical, thermal, time-dependant, frequency-domain, acceleration, TTS, creep, stress-relaxation, etc.
Conceptualization, design, reverse-engineering, CAD, CAE, CAM, FEA, CFD, optimization, sensitivity, LMC/MMC, etc.
Client representations, neutral evaluations, brain-storming, government programs, academia, IP, patents. etc.
