FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
A Special Purpose Machine (SPM) is a custom-built machine designed for one specific manufacturing or assembly operation — unlike standard machines (lathes, mills) that perform many tasks. SPMs are used when standard machines cannot meet the required cycle time, accuracy, or integration demands of a production line. Examples include automatic assembly stations, leak-test fixtures, torque nutrunners, and indexing conveyor systems.
Yes. We design and build SPMs for automotive assembly operations including press-fit, torque assembly, leak testing, component marking, and automatic feeding systems. We work to your takt time, throughput, and safety requirements and can integrate with your existing line control systems via PLC.
SPM lead times depend on complexity. Simple fixtures and single-station SPMs are typically delivered in 6–10 weeks from concept approval. Complex multi-station SPMs with PLC integration may take 12–20 weeks. We provide a detailed project timeline and milestone review schedule for every SPM build.
Yes. We provide on-site installation, commissioning, and operator training for all SPMs we build. Documentation including operator manuals, maintenance schedules, and spare parts lists is included with every delivery.
