DMC is excited to collaborate with CardMill and Beyond Design to bring a powerful new card sorting machine from prototype to production. This partnership represents a major milestone for CardMill, and we’re proud to contribute our engineering expertise to help make it happen.
As a Chicago-based engineering firm specializing in embedded systems, industrial automation, and hardware-software integration, DMC has completed more than 10,000 projects across 40 countries. Our team is now focused on refining the motion systems and embedded intelligence that drive CardMill’s high-speed scanning and sorting capabilities.
We’re working alongside Beyond Design, a long-time collaborator with deep expertise in industrial design and user experience. Together, we form a synchronized team that’s fully integrated into CardMill’s development process.
Engineering for Performance and Scalability
We’re currently focused on refining the core mechanics that make CardMill powerful and reliable:
- Optimizing motion systems for smooth, consistent card movement
- Enhancing tray and feeder design for improved capacity and flow
- Evaluating cameras, motors, and processors to boost speed and reliability
- Strengthening alignment and durability for long-term performance
DMC and Beyond Design are also helping CardMill evaluate manufacturing partners to support tooling, pilot builds, and full-scale production. With over 60 years of combined experience, our teams are guiding the product toward a scalable and efficient manufacturing process.
Built for Collectors, Designed to Last
CardMill’s mission is to make high-performance card sorting accessible to everyday collectors. With DMC and Beyond Design leading the next phase, we’re confident the final product will deliver on that promise. The result will be an affordable, all-in-one scanner and sorter that’s built to last.
We’re proud to be part of this journey and look forward to sharing more updates as we move closer to delivery.
