| | At Pentaflex, we have designed our 123,000 square foot facility with the most capable stamping presses, value-added equipment and support machinery in order to offer our account partners a complete range of manufacturing solutions.
Three of our presses - 200 ton to 300 ton - are used primarily for progressive die work. Two other 500 ton presses are used for progressive die work and heavy forming. Lot sizes for these machines are from 5,000 - 40,000 pieces per run.
Five major presses are straight side hydraulic machines for very heavy gauge blanking, drawing and forming. Tonnage capacity of these machines is up to 2,300 tons pressure with up to 500 tons of die cushion available.
Other presses include a new 1200 ton mechanical press with a large bed for larger progressive dies, single point and double crank presses, which are typically used for secondary operations for parts made on the hydraulic machines and also for press assembly work. For a closer look at our press list, see the equipment page on our website.
We offer production machining and assembly on standard and CNC machines, assembly stations, and automated equipment using both manufactured and purchased components. Production welding is performed on press welders and automated gas metal ARC welders.
Our in-house tool and die department enables us to design, manufacture and maintain all of our customers' tooling requirements.
Pentaflex toolmakers are skilled craftspeople who, with the help of CAD, Pro-E technology and other state of the art equipment, produce and maintain tooling to exacting standards.
The Pentaflex Quality Laboratory is equipped with two coordinate measuring machines and many other pieces of quality control equipment. All are calibrated on a regular basis. Just as importantly, our quality control personnel are highly skilled and receive continuing education in quality related fields.
The majority of Pentaflex's customers are in the heavy truck industry. They include companies who design and manufacture transmissions, axles, clutches, brakes, wheel and drive line components for trucks up to and including Class 7 and 8 vehicles. The balance of our valued account partners include Tier II suppliers in the automotive, agriculture, lawn & garden and the industrial marketplace.
