Our Engineering Department is ready to work with you to identify the most optimal processes needed to make your parts. An example of successful collaboration was with a customer who needed us to modify an existing coating line hanger design for a new part\u00a0 that would need to endure a much higher coating process temperature.\u00a0 We were able to far exceed all performance requirements without having to radically change the fundamental part design.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Involving our engineers during the developmental phase of a part has multiple benefits.<\/p>
Security \u2013 We maintain NDAs with most of our major customers to ensure their intellectual property is vigorously protected.<\/li>
Profitability- There are so many examples where the cost to make a part can be dramatically impacted by small dimensional variations. In the case of wire forms especially, having our engineers involved gives you a highly specialized set of eyeballs skilled in determining what dimensions enable a part to be made with the least amount of processes \/ secondary operations.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
