Automotive manufacturing relies on precision, speed, and consistency at every stage of production. From raw components to finished assemblies, materials must move efficiently and safely throughout the facility. Automotive manufacturing carts play a critical role in supporting these workflows by enabling organized material handling, reducing downtime, and improving overall production efficiency.
In recent years, 3D printing has gotten increasingly democratized, revolutionizing the manufacturing process in many industries. Notably, industrial companies are rapidly embracing the trend of 3D printing with an expected compound annual growth rate of 17% between 2020 and 2023. (more…)
Selecting the right industrial basket has a direct impact on product protection, process efficiency, and long-term equipment performance. Whether baskets are used for parts washing, heat treating, storage, or material handling, the construction method plays a major role in how well they perform. Two of the most common options are woven wire mesh baskets and welded wire mesh baskets. While both serve important roles, woven mesh baskets are often the preferred solution for demanding industrial applications.
As industrial cleaning standards continue to rise and environmentally harmful solvents are phased out, ultrasonic cleaning has emerged as one of the most efficient and eco-friendly alternatives. Manufacturers across automotive, aerospace, medical, and electronics industries now rely on ultrasonic systems to remove debris, oils, fine particulates, and contaminants that traditional cleaning methods often miss.
For over 50 years, every wire formation produced by Salco Engineering went through an elongated process. This process involved straightening the wire, doing simple bends, cutting, and finally forming it into the exact style necessary to complete the work order. From start to finish, the process included several stations, loads of manpower, and lots of labor related costs. In July of 2015, this process received a much needed, modernized facelift. (more…)
