Why this solution for industrial environments
Able Hardware designs and manufactures welded frames and heavy-duty carts purpose-built for industrial equipment. Our approach combines automatic/robotic MIG welding for throughput and repeatability with CNC machining on critical datums to ensure precise mounting, smooth alignment, and reliable service life in harsh factory conditions. With structural carbon steels (Q235/S235, Q355/S355) as the baseline and optional 304/316 stainless or 6061/6082 aluminum for corrosion resistance or weight reduction, we deliver robust, export-ready assemblies at scale.

Typical applications in industrial equipment
- Machine base and skid frames with milled datum pads, anchor holes, Gabeltaschen, and leveling pads.
- Handling carts and tugger chassis for moving sub-assemblies between workstations; tuned for manual or tugged duty cycles.
- WIP racks and process fixtures with stiffness targets, shock/vibration considerations, and secure load restraint.
- Test/maintenance dollies with jack points, precision bores, and guarded casters for safe shop movement.

- Coating systems: Powder coat to RAL with typical DFT 70–100 μm, zinc plating for hardware-heavy geometries, e-coat or industrial paint systems for complex layouts.
- Selection method: Coatings recommended using ISO 12944 by environment category (C2–C5) and durability target; DFT verified to ISO 2808. Where hygiene or chemical exposure is critical, 304/316 stainless or hybrid paint systems are considered.
Fertigungsoptionen
Automatische/Robotermig (und TIG, wenn angegeben), Vorrichtungen & Vorrichtungen, Wiederholbarkeit
Automatic/robotic MIG is our primary process for consistent bead profile, controlled heat input, and repeatable distortion management. TIG is available for stainless and cosmetic joints or thin-gauge features. We design custom jigs and fixtures to lock geometry, sequence welds for minimal warp, and hit takt. WPS/PQR are prepared when applicable, with trial coupons to validate parameter windows before serial build. Sehen automatisches Schweißen und engineering resources.
Sekundäre Ops: Laserschnitt, biegen, Bearbeitung; Beschichtung & Verpackung
Laser-cut blanks and formed components ensure tight fit-ups pre-weld. Post-weld CNC-Bearbeitung establishes precision datum pads, bearing bores, and alignment faces. Finishing includes powder coat, Zinkbeschichtung, E-Coat, or paint per ISO 12944. Export packaging uses Paletten/Kisten with protective wrap, Eckwächter, and printed labels; a defined pcs per pallet plan improves unloading and line-side replenishment.

Q235/S235 and Q355/S355 are standard for strength and value; 304/316 stainless is chosen for corrosive or hygiene-critical areas; 6061/6082 aluminum is used where weight saving matters.
Q2. Can you hold tight datum and hole position tolerances on welded frames?
Ja. We machine datum pads and bores post-weld; typical guidance is pad flatness ≤1.0–2.0 mm and squareness ≤1.5 mm/m, with hole positions to drawing per ISO 13920/ISO 2768.
Q3. What weld class should I call out?
ISO 5817 Klasse c fits most internal joints; specify Klasse b for visible or critical joints. We can reference AWS D1.1 when requested.
Q4. How do you choose a coating system?
Based on ISO 12944 environment category (C2–C5) and durability target. Powder coat 70–100 μm is common; zinc plating or e-coat suit complex assemblies; stainless or hybrid paint used for demanding conditions.
Q5. What are typical MOQs and lead times?
MOQs generally 50–100 pcs; prototypes in 7–15 working days; production 25–45 days depending on fixtures, Bearbeitung, and coating capacity.
Q6. Can you support stainless cosmetic joints?
Ja. TIG is available for stainless or appearance-critical features; MIG remains primary for throughput and consistency.
Q7. What do you need to quote accurately?
2D/3D drawings with ISO 2553 Schweißsymbole, ISO 13920/ISO 2768 Toleranzen, target loads and duty cycle (manual/tugged), coating system and DFT, and packaging plan (pcs/pallet).
