Abstract: This article describes an innovative proposal of a methodology design oriented at developing original equipment which can be used for engineering education. The methodology consists of 9 phases: (1) analysis of customer requirements, (2) conceptual design, (3) body design, (4) design detail (5) manufacturing and assembly, (6) testing and validation, (7) industrial transference, (8) life cycle analysis, and (9) industrial upgrading and technological innovation. These stages help students to contextualize and locate the different subjects carry during his career and also serve the industry to systematize the programs and procedures with which are designed and manufactured equipment and machinery. The methodology includes steps ranging from quotation and the contract of a project through to delivery and startup of equipment designed. Each phase is described as a program or procedure of the design process and for each phase are given a series of steps to follow in the design of a product. It presents an application case study of the methodology in the equipment design and machinery to a company formed by members of an ethnic group.
