Manufacturing
|
|
We utilize a commercial bandsaw
to precision cut our axles and plates to length. Unlike a
radial arm or cold saw, our machine produces straight cut surfaces
with a minimal heat affected zone.
|
|
We POWDER
COAT PAINT our axles and bake the paint through a 450°F.
oven to harden the coating. Do not confuse this process with our
competitor's wet brushing or aerosol spray paint. Our powder coat
paint will not scratch or flake off the metal.
|
 |
|
A commercial geared drill press
with oil fed lines maintains very close tolerances and correct cutting
speeds for cutting precise holes through our hardened steels.
|
|
|
|
For welding, we use HOBART,
MILLER and LINCOLN® high output MIG welders.
To maximize weldment integrity and aesthetics, we shield our welds
with a gas mixture of 75% argon & 25% carbon dioxide
(C25). Our in-house welder has fulfilled all class requirements
for meeting certification by the American Welding Society.

Our brackets are cut from a sheet of hardened plate steel utilizing
a LASER precision CNC machine made by AMADA. The parts are nested
and then programmed for numerical control utilizing a CAD/CAM software
by FabriWin.
Laser cutting provides extremely close tolerances without any
of the burrs (rough edges) or shape restrictions associated with
normal cutting machines.

Inventory

Our in-house inventory consisting of an assortment of axles,
plates, bar stock, and wheels allows us to create uniquely custom training
wheels as well as manufacture standard products.
Packaging
We individually package
our products using the heaviest grade double wall cardboard available,
conforming to ASTM D 5118 standard. Each recyclable carton is custom
designed and die cut perfectly for the dedicated size of the training
wheel, eliminating the need for filling. Our box is certified to withstand
500 lbs. (per sq. in.) burst strength and gross weight of 100 lbs.
Shipments
Our flexible manufacturing methods allows
us to ship out one or two order to each of our valued customers...
|
 |
...or several orders going to
one.
