WLS helps the customer keep rolling.

This caster bracket assembly is produced in right and left hand designs. Releases for the parts are in small quantities and on short notice. To respond and make them efficiently, our design team determined the aluminum clinch nuts on the back flange could be staked during the manufacturing process. What made it tricky was they needed to be staked after finishing.

To produce the parts, we set up a manufacturing cell with a turret press, a press brake and a staking operation. Procedures were established for extra care and handling after finishing. With the cell, the procedures and our people, we created a perfect environment to quickly respond to our customers' needs.
