Hardware Manufacturing

7 specialist bots

Hardware manufacturers produce hinges, locks, latches, handles, brackets and related small metal components through stamping, machining, assembly and finishing. For a shop that machines custom and catalog hardware on a schedule, the specialists turn customer orders or forecasts into production runs, manage raw material and tooling inventory, schedule presses and CNC machines, track quality inspections and maintain compliance records while the machinists and finishers stay with the physical work.
