B&R Machining and Fabrication proudly offers customer specific machinery for those irregular jobs you just cannot get done anywhere else. With our vast amount of resources, we can design and create machinery that is specifically tailored to whatever needs our customers might have.
B&R is not a “one size fits all” kind of company. Here, we understand that each one of our customers has a very different set of needs. Therefore, we go above and beyond to recognize these needs and accommodate them to the best of our ability.
The Benefits of Customer Specific Machinery by B&R…
- B&R will review any customer issue and work together with that customer to find and solve any problems in a cost-effective manner.
- B&R will only design and build directly from the client’s pictures and/or specifications or drawings.
- B&R will work hand in hand with the client’s engineers to make sure all projects are built to the client’s exact specifications and to further ensure customer satisfaction.
- All projects from B&R will include a comprehensive manual along with a complete list of parts.
- All machines made by B&R are built according to OSHA Safety Standards.
- All B&R customer specific machinery has a one year warranty on labor (parts warranted by manufacturer).
- All B&R customer specific machinery has tight tolerance manufacturing.
B&R custom machinery ranges from $10,000 – $50,000 depending on the project.
~Case Study #1: Pneumatic Assembly Press
Our client’s primary problem was due to imported parts which were incorrectly assembled with the wrong angels. Considerable time was lost for this client while repairing these parts upon their arrival in South Carolina. This machine was custom-built by B&R according to the client’s input and aided in the assembly of parts by pneumatic control.
Machinery specifications included the following:
- Designed for pneumatic control
- Rubber bushings
- Quick change tooling
- Anti-tie down (required two hands)
- Built on casters for easy storage
- Faster assembly process
- Simplified process (pins placed to make sure errors from wrong angels could not happen again)
- Correctly created parts allowed for local assembly and peace of mind
- Quick change tooling (2, 3, or 4 line variations)
- Self-contained fixture storage
- Built according to OSHA Safety Standards
- Included manual and parts list for quick and easy replacement
~Case Study #2: Automatic Drill Station
This project enabled our client to save money by increasing the company’s rate of production. Working closely with the client’s engineers, B&R was able to design and create this custom machinery while ensuring the client’s exact specifications would be met. After completion of the first machine, the process was more accurate and considerably faster. This particular client was very satisfied with the end product and placed an order for two additional machines!
Machinery specifications included the following:
- Automatic spray lubrication
- Automatic pecking for drill cycles
- Reduced time needed to create part from 3 minutes to 35 seconds
- Built according to OSHA Safety Standards
- Included manual and parts list for quick and easy replacement
~Case Study #3: Bench Top Testing Machine
This particular project was custom designed and created to check for fatigue in metal springs. This custom machine is ideal for employees who need to work on “light duty.”
Machinery specs include:
- Spring loaded
- Air cylinder to check pressure
- Easy to read dial to show performance of the spring
- Simplicity (hook spring in place to check for fatigue)
- Built according to OSHA Safety Standards
- Included manual and parts list for quick and easy replacement
~Case Study #4: Laser Measuring Device
This is custom machinery built for making precision measurements. To ensure customer satisfaction, B&R worked hand in hand with the client’s engineers to make sure the project would be built based on the client provided drawings and components to their exact specifications.
Machinery specs include:
- Encoder actuators and lasers inside all parts of this high-tech machine
- Tight tolerance manufacturing
- 1 ½ thousands – .0015 of linear tolerance across 15” rack
- Built according to OSHA Safety Standards
- Includes manual and parts list for quick and easy replacement
