TECHNICAL CONSULTING & SUPPORT

At Fortune Metal we still believe that technical consulting and support matter. In fact, we think they make all the difference.

For us, it's not just about equipment, service or offering a wide variety of supplies.  It's about helping you choose the right equipment and materials in the first place. It's about helping you understand the process and methods involved. It's about training your operators in how to run the process.  Our experts bring years of experience to bear on your situation.

It all comes down to helping you to ask the right questions.  This may sound simple, but in an age of price-cutting and stripped down operations, technical consulting can fall by the wayside. 

So can follow-on technical support.  We’re here long after the initial sale, helping you control your process week in and week out so that you can achieve optimal efficiency, increased productivity, cost savings on a per part basis, and consistent parts quality. 

It’s about helping you on an ongoing basis with continuous process improvement.  With an on-site process development lab, we can test and refine processes to find the right combination of medias and chemical solvents, the right process for deburring, deflashing or general surface improvement. Precise finishes are assured and measured by profilometer. Difficult contours and complex shapes are our specialty.

Here are some examples of how we can put our expertise to work for you:

• Equipment tune-ups and adjustments for process optimization
• Process audits for total review of current processing needs
• Compound calibration to ensure minimal compound usage
• Titration of washing compound solutions to insure maintenance of soap solution
• Nozzle adjustment on automated air blast equipment
• Operator training seminars for blasting, washing and mass finishing
• Systems automation reviews for increased productivity
• Lean manufacturing reviews

So when you have questions about your parts washing, blasting or mass finishing process, ask us. We still believe in tech support.

We talk the talk…and we walk the walk.
