Solutions: Spanning from Bespoke Prototypes to Production Runs
From prototype creation through continuous production, FireFoxxAuto LLC scales your metal fabrication with the same rigor at every stage. You get a structured workflow: requirements capture, DFM review, CAD/CAM programming, material validation, and controlled fabrication. Our rapid prototyping reduces turnaround times with in-house cutting, forming, and CNC machining, so you can modify designs without compromising dimensional accuracy.
When you're ready for low volume production, we establish specifications with revision control, determine process parameters, and implement copyright checks to ensure stable throughput. We handle BOMs, traceability, and lot-level documentation to maintain consistency across subsequent runs. For volume production, we establish standard fixtures and tooling, balance cycle times, and coordinate with your release cadence, delivering reliable delivery, predictable pricing, and reliable, compliant parts.
Accurate Welding and Strict-Tolerance Performance
You've finalized specifications and secured consistent throughput; now the joints must meet the same rigor. You demand welds that maintain dimensional accuracy under heat, load, and inspection. We deliver by controlling arc energy, travel speed, and bead geometry to preserve flatness, squareness, and parallelism across assemblies.
We combine robotic alignment with fixture repeatability and micro-tolerance calibration at every setup. Computer vision-based seam tracking corrects path drift in real time, while pulsed parameters limit distortion and HAZ. For thin-gauge parts, we balance penetration against heat input to eliminate warping; for thick sections, we oversee multi-pass sequencing to preserve tolerances.
Each weldment is verified with CMM checks, profilometry, and dye penetrant as necessary. You get reliable, tight-tolerance results that fit seamlessly downstream eliminating rework needs.
Materials and Finishes That Stand Up to Real-World Use
Longevity depends on the right alloy and the appropriate surface system for the environment. You select materials based on load, exposure, and maintenance limitations. For coastal or deicing-salt conditions, specify 316 for excellent stainless steel corrosion resistance; for interiors or mild exposure, 304 performs well. When weight is a concern, select 6061-T6 aluminum and hardcoat anodize to enhance wear resistance. For carbon steel structures, prioritize galvanizing for sacrificial protection, then apply a high-build topcoat.
You manage coating durability by pairing coating chemistry to service class. Powder coat longevity relies on substrate prep: SSPC-SP 10 near-white blast, a zinc-rich primer, and a TGIC-polyester topcoat cured to spec. Verify with DFT readings, crosshatch adhesion, and salt-spray testing. Record callouts on drawings to secure repeatable performance.
Fast Turnarounds Without Cutting Corners
Even under tight deadlines, you maintain schedules by systematizing procedures, not omitting procedures. You prioritize upfront planning: determine tolerances, select alloys, secure tooling, and create CAM paths that reduce tool changes and travel. You stage raw stock, fixtures, and consumables so machines operate without interruption. For speed prototyping, you regularize material thicknesses and bend radii, helping you reuse tested setups and efficiently nest parts. You laser-process blanks, then shift to CNC forming and TIG/MIG fusion with established WPS parameters that preserve strength and finish.
For emergency repair work, you diagnose the breakdown, evaluate worn surfaces, and reconstruct the replacement geometry with coordinate measuring machines or laser scanning. You start with machining the critical faces, confirm using in-process metrology, then complete assembly and finishing. The result: quick cycle times without compromising durability or fit.
Honest Pricing and Direct Communication
Although scope evolves, pricing remains fixed. You get line-by-line estimates linked to engineering drawings, tolerance classes, and material specs, so pricing transparency is built into your RFQ. We secure quoted rates to defined revision levels; any change initiates a documented delta with unit, setup, and finish costs separated. No hidden surcharges—production time, consumables, and outside processes are enumerated.
We employ communication protocols designed to keep you informed while eliminating noise. We provide milestone-based updates: purchase order approval, material receipt, first-article approval, in-process inspection findings, and ship confirmation including traceable heat lots. A single point of contact, response SLAs, and change-control tickets documenting approvals and timestamps are maintained. CAD markups, weld maps, and CMM reports are available upon request. Precise data, stable prices, and methodical coordination avoid unexpected issues and rework.
