The Circle of Life

Circle of Life - detailed segments

1. Flexible Equipment - Designed with the ever-changing automobile market in mind, our machinery is built to handle many different types of assembly processes.  Spot welding, MIG welding, fastener welding, staking, bushing insertion, hole piercing, part marking, and sealant application are just some of the processes that can be implemented for your program requirements.  You no longer need to buy a dedicated machine that will be obsolete when the program is completed.
2. Interchangeable Tooling - Our patented, modular solution allows for tool changeover in less than five minutes without requiring a forklift or skilled trades.  Switch from welding to piercing or any other tooling application without stopping production.
3. Automated Process - Why pay for manual labor and slow production when we can automate your assembly process?  This allows you to increase quality and production rates, and allows for reassignment of labor assets.
4. Efficient System - Our machines are compact, reducing the requirement for valuable production floor space.  Resistance welding is performed up to three times faster than traditional robot techniques.  Electric servo positioning reduces plant air demands and the overall amount of hardware required to perform a task. Side by side stations allow for operator load/unload time to be buried in the machine cycle, so the machine is always working for you.  Perform tooling changeover daily, weekly, or at the end of a program- your capital investment is ready for the next task instead of the scrap pile!
5. Multiple Value Added Processes - With the Tec-Flex system you can choose from multiple value added processes and combine them in one Flexible Tool Module. Such as: MIG welding & Fastener welding, Spot welding & Staking, Hole piercing & Sealant application, Bushing insertion & part marking the combinations are endless.
6. Extended Life - With robust components and proven design concepts, our solution is designed for years of service, not just for the one program.  Re-use your capital investment and save money on concurrent programs or future ones.  With its flexibility, interchangeable tooling, automated processes and efficiency, our solution will continue to perform well beyond the initial payback period and continue to save valuable resources in today's uncertain economy.
