our services

We solve complex physical challenges with digital precision

Our engineers turn real-world problems into data-driven solutions. We combine simulation, measurement, and analytics to help you design, test, and validate smarter systems – before and after they’re built. With robust quality and compliance processes and outcomes, aligned to technical and sector-specific standards.

Modelling and Simulation

Virtual prototyping without the risk. Our engineers build multiphysics simulations  of complex physical systems – structural, thermal, acoustic, fluid, and electromagnetic – to predict real-world performance before you build.

Validate with confidence.

Measurement and Monitoring

We capture and analyse vibration, noise, and environmental data to verify design assumptions and support compliance. From offshore infrastructure to cleanrooms, our instrumentation delivers evidence you can trust.

Data Processing and Analysis

We transform complex datasets into actionable engineering insight. Our team processes, correlates, and visualises data so you can make confident, evidence-led decisions faster.

Smarter systems. Faster insights.

Machine Learning and GenAI

By blending physics and AI, we build models that learn, predict, and optimise — cutting simulation time, improving accuracy, and enabling autonomous performance tuning.

systems simulated and synchronised.

Digital Twins

We create digital twins that combine physics-based models with real-world data. Monitor performance, predict maintenance, and manage assets with live, data-driven intelligence.

Case Studies

Our expertise in action

See how Xi’s engineering insight delivers measurable results across sectors.

Linn: high performance speaker amplifier design

Xi used Multiphysics simulation to refine the passive cooling fins in Linn’s flagship audio systems, improving thermal performance, reducing prototype build cost and supporting long term product reliability.

Vibration issues at an Edinburgh hotel

Xi provided rapid on site vibration measurement and diagnosis, identifying two independent mechanical faults and restoring guest comfort with minimal disruption.

Transducer design optimisation

Xi Engineering Consultants modelled and optimised a piezoelectric transducer for structure borne data transmission, delivering a robust, low risk design that works where electromagnetic communication fails.
