Lathe with DRO

We build our own Printed Circuit Boards (PCB). Our equipment includes:

Stencil Equipment for applying Solder paste
PCB Pick and Place Machines with dual vision systems for precise component placement
Large PCB programmable oven
Multiple programmable and manual rework stations

We have a large 10,000 sq ft facility for all our equipment that is climate-controlled. We also have loads of hand tools and other equipment including:

Paint booth along with all the spraying and application equipment
Multiple Air Compressors and air dryers and regulators
Sand Blaster
Bead Blaster
Enormous selection of handheld and bench top tools

In order to fabricate robots, welding is essential. Our welding equipment includes:

Large High Frequency TIG Welders
Handheld Plasma cutting equipment
MIG welding including push and pull wire feeding guns

These tools allow us to build virtually anything in-house. Of Course we cannot run any of this equipment without outstanding employees. Our growth continues each year, and we are always looking for talented people to help us expand our reach.
