Custom Machine Building

When doing custom machine building, a statement we hear a lot is “I know what I need to automate, but I am not sure how.” Where to even begin to look can seem like a daunting challenge. That is why we are here. Flores Automation creates custom, turnkey cells and complete automated lines for your manufacturing and assembly process.

Each machine we build is designed with your specific process at the core. We work closely with you to completely understand your existing process, hurdles, and your vision of the new workflow to create a seamlessly finished custom machine. Through the new custom machine build we design and build, our customers:

  • Eliminate inefficiencies in manufacturing and assembly lines
  • Improve performance through engineering changes in existing controls
  • Overcome labor shortage challenges
  • Enjoy financial savings realized from the relatively quick return-on-investment of capital equipment with industrial controls

Design, Engineer, Build, Implement

Whatever is driving you toward factory or process automation, we are here to help — from design to engineering, to implementation. Flores Automation has a rich history of working with companies across numerous industries to carefully engineer machines that seamlessly integrate into our customers’ processes.

Automated Assembly

Your costs are increasing at a greater rate than material costs. You cannot keep up with demand due to labor shortages and/or inconsistent product quality. Or you are becoming increasingly concerned with the health of your employees. These are just a few of the reasons you may be investigating automating your assembly process.

We can help you solve these concerns. By understanding your process and goals, we can custom design a turnkey cell or complete line designed for your assembly needs. Our machine builds can help you:

  • Increase output
  • Standardize quality
  • Improve profitability
  • Simplify the process
  • Reduce Stress

We work across industries and focus on your specific process to design and implement a custom solution to fit your goals. Get a no-cost, hassle-free quote from an experienced Flores Automation project manager or a free consultation: 262-682-4229, or use our Quick Contact form.

Material Handling

Efficiently moving the components/materials through your assembly or manufacturing line is extremely important to keep throughput at target levels. You may want to look at a new system if your current system is:

  • Breaking down
  • Unable to handle the existing load
  • Need a complete redesign to increase efficiency

With multiple decades of combined experience, Flores Automation has been doing designing both simple and complex material handling systems. From the single control cabinet to a complete line. We are here to help you achieve your production goals.

Cutting, Grinding, Polishing

Removing excess flash, cutting out specific shapes, and buffing out metal pieces can be difficult processes to automate. But continuing with the existing manual process, you could encounter problems like:

  • Employee safety concerns
  • Limiting growth
  • Growing costs

We take into consideration both operational sides of what you want and need and what an automated custom machine build can do. It is this combination of a 360-degree thought process that allows us to identify a safe and efficient methodology.

Packaging

Packaging can take on many different forms and you do not want a standard machine that is retrofitted to your packaging configuration. You need something that is designed for your specific packaging needs.

We’ve worked with:

  • Package configurations big and small
  • Packaged and bundled material that will be used for packaging a finished good
  • Food and beverage
  • Tools
  • Consumer products

Our experienced team will work with you to determine the best possible combination of design, engineering, and components to deliver custom machine builds designed specifically for your packaging needs.

Custom manufactured quality testing machine.

Quality Testing

There are a few things to consider when looking at automating your quality testing:

  • Repetition
  • Performance
  • Time

If your product is going to go into or in production and you are not measuring usability, automating may be a good option for you.

Automating quality testing is best used for highly repetitive tasks like turning something on and off. You will get hard data in a specified amount of time that is performed identically every time. Some of the benefits of automated quality testing are:

  • Consistent environment
  • Standardized procedure
  • Test recording
  • Variable testing

Fixture Design

Designing a creative fixture that works within your process is one of our strengths. It stems from our desire to understand what you want the outcome to be, in both ideal and acceptable states.

With a newly designed fixture for your custom machine build, we may be able to:

  • Reduce downtime
  • Increase output
  • Reduce operator’s fatigue
  • Make small runs viable

Our team will work closely with you to try to optimize the goals of the project. By utilizing the entirety of the assigned team, creative ideas can come to fruition to save money, reduce production, and increase output.

Machine Modification

Older and problematic machines can cause numerous problems with your line. From inconsistent workflow to complete shutdowns, to keep your manufacturing and assembly lines running at maximum capacity, contact us to review your options and next steps.

We have worked on various types of equipment and have the experience to get your equipment running properly again. Three of the most popular modifications we perform are:

  • Micro-controller integration
  • Adding in an HMI
  • Upgrading the complete control system.

Once that is defined, we can begin designing in the new component pieces and completing the build.
