What we have done.

Over the years we have updated many pieces of equipment and improved processes. The machines have ranged from Punch Press to highly specialized equipment. Here are some examples:

PRESS CELL AND SERVO TECHNOLOGY RETROFIT
Press was completely rebuilt and controls updated. Control panel and PLC were designed, built and programmed to run in a cell with press and various other pieces of equipment. System replaced gears using servo technology. Units were modified in our facility, tested and shipped to customer where Project Manager assisted with start up and production.

 

LEVELER REFURBISH  
Leveler before refurbished Leveler after mechanically refurbished and new Electrical system installed.

 

SPECIAL PRECISION FORMING MACHINE
Special designed machine used to form high precision parts. Unit was transported to our facility where new controls, programming Siemens PLC and controls were installed and tested. Job completed ahead of schedule saving customer valuable production time, money and eliminated safety issues involved in hand forming parts.


CONVEYOR AUTOMATION
Customer was having safety issues on their conveyor line due to operator pushing 800lb. units. The refrigerators would enter the test area and operator would manually push the unit to the test cell, test and then manually push unit back on the exit Conveyor. The picture on the right shows the conveyor after modifications. The new process automatically brings unit to testing area. The operator selects (by pushing a button) which cell the unit advances to in order to be tested. Once test is completed, the operator pushes the exit button which automatically sends unit back to exit conveyor. Upgraded conveyor system, PLC and controls was installed over shutdown schedule and with no down time during start up.
