		Progressive Die Stamping Our 110 to 800 ton presses are capable of running progressive dies through automatic feed as well as through the hand-transfer process. We have the ability to work with several materials, such as steel and 6061-aluminum alloy, and are particularly experienced in the production of stampings from HSLA. All tools and dies used in our stamping processes are manufactured in-house, therefore achieving precision tolerances is not a problem for us. The 60 to 260 ton hand-transfer type secondary presses allow us to build prototypes quickly. We also create assemblies for automotive, appliance, and telecommunication applications. Welding, drilling, in-die tapping, and several other operations are performed as a part of our assembly services.




		Hand Transfer Presses Our 83,000 square foot facility is equipped with 32 to 260 ton hand transfer presses to handle short production runs. The 260-ton Clearing Niagra stamping press can process parts up to 84” x 60” in size. Typical metal stampings include cabin-seating platforms for aircrafts, mechanical assemblies, and interior/structural safety critical components for automobiles. We can also stamp custom parts from stainless steel, brass, and aluminum.




		CNC Machining We perform vertical CNC machining to produce components for homeland security, military, automotive seating parts, satellite antenna components, as well as test equipment and fixtures. Our CNC programmers use CAD drawings provided by the design team to produce machined parts in for both high and low volumes. This machining capability helps us to produce intricate components to exact specifications. Internationally machined parts can also be reverse engineered to US standards.




		Resistance Welding We perform spot, projection, seam, and butt type resistance welding for your components. Our 50 to 250 KVA resistance welding equipment is used in the production of durable structural automotive assemblies and other components employed in refrigeration, dishwashers, and satellite antennas. Weldments are fabricated to exact customer specifications and assembly designs. We weld stainless steel, carbon steel, and aluminum material with thicknesses ranging from 1mm to 1”. In house welding of assembly fixtures and assembly lines ensures improved production efficiencies.




		GMAW (MIG) Welding We weld a variety of aerospace, satellite antenna parts, and automotive interior seating components. In compliance with ASTM B1117 standards, our MIG welding procedures ensure corrosion-resistant welded assemblies. Aluminum, brass, and steel are some materials that we can weld.




		Powder Coat Painting Finishing components with in house powder coating operations, which are environmentally friendly (VOC free) and durable, is our specialty. We are equipped with two Nordson spray booths, each containing 2 manual and 12 automatic powder coating guns. The line speed for our powder coating process is up to 20 feet per minute.




		Electro-Mechanical Assembly At HDS, we build test equipment and assembly fixtures in house for all products. This helps us to custom-build as well as test electro-mechanical assemblies at low cost and within short turnarounds. From safety-critical automotive assemblies to KAKU antenna assemblies used in satellite communication, every product is completely tested prior to delivery. Additionally, we customize assembly lines to improve the production efficiency of our drilling, tapping, slotting, and welding operations.




		Warehousing / Distribution Our facility has a 150,000 square foot area dedicated to warehousing and distribution. As a part of our packaging operations, we provide shrink-wrapping, bagging, and boxing services to our customers. We can bar code and label the packages as well. Handling direct delivery to customers through freight shipments and route trucks is not an issue for us. Our capabilities include handling low and high volume shipping. Before shipping, we perform a 100 percent visual inspection to ensure the packaging meets customer's requirements and specifications. To lower the risk of customer stored products our warehousing space is fitted with wet and dry sprinkler systems as well as other features to ensure on-time delivery. From our warehouse we can ...
