Producing engineering complex systems that have high performance, reliability and
value is one of the most important today’s technology market challenges. Appropriate
response to these challenges will require the integration of a number of the technologies.
It is possible trough Mechatronics (a synergetic combination of various sciences in
engineering technologies). This paper provides a systematic and conceptual model of
the factors affecting the mechatronic technology commercialization process in small
businesses. Therefore, mechatronics technology commercialization process has been studied
in seven small enterprises. A grounded theory has been used for analyzing Influencing
factors. The conceptual model which is based on in-depth interviews with managers of
successful companies in the commercialization of this technology has been derived.The
pattern obtained from this study indicates mechatronics technology as a major issue that
is affected by the specialized knowledge, experience and collaboration between engineers
from various disciplines of engineering. The ultimate aim of technology commercialization
is to obtain more financial profits. Engineers can use their special skills to sell technology to
the manufacturers. These skills are appropriate for various situations and different factors
underlying medium and different qualifications
