Past Projects:
■ ACL Technologies Inc.
• Provided 155 sets of forged, welded and fabricated components for the A/S32A-31-A
US Navy carrier based aircraft spotting tractor. We were ACL’s largest subcontractor on this
program
■ Aerometals Inc.
• Provided reverse engineering, tooling and magnesium sand castings for replacement under
wing landing gear doors KC-135 USAF tanker
• Provided tooling and 17-4 PH investment castings for fuel control valve
■ Arrowhead Brass Products Inc.
• Converted 40 year old 2D drawings and reverse engineered cast brass plumbing fitting
components into CAD models and constructed new high production foundry tooling to
maximize weight savings.
The first 3 items converted showed a $150,000.00 per month savings in metal costs along.
■ Advanced Technology Institute
• Hybrid light weight metals program-R&D project to cast composite material fibers into cast
components leaving an extension to directly bond composite materials to the cast
component, eliminating the need for external mechanical fasteners. We conceived the
bonding concept built tooling, manufactured samples and tested components showing an
85% strength retention of parent composite material. Customer US Army Benet
Laboratories
■ Armour of America
• Designed and built custom tooling to produce body armor for police and military use.
• Designed and built custom tooling for producing light weight composite armor for aircraft,
Helicopters and ground vehicles. Example C-130 transports planes, CH-46 & 47, Erucopter
EC-135 Sikorsky SH-3 and other helicopters and HMMWV – M998/966/1025,
MTV- M1083 and other vehicles.
