Offerings: From Tailored Prototypes to Manufacturing Runs
From first-article prototypes to steady-state production, FireFoxxAuto LLC scales your metal fabrication with the same rigor at every stage. You get a organized procedure: requirements capture, DFM review, CAD/CAM programming, material validation, and controlled fabrication. Our rapid prototyping shortens delivery schedules with in-house cutting, forming, and CNC machining, so you can refine designs without sacrificing dimensional accuracy.
As you transition to low volume production, we fix specifications with revision control, define process parameters, and apply copyright checks to maintain stable throughput. We handle BOMs, traceability, and lot-level documentation to preserve consistency across production cycles. For full-scale manufacturing, we standardize fixtures and tooling, calibrate cycle times, and coordinate with your release cadence, guaranteeing reliable delivery, predictable costs, and consistent, compliant components.
Exact Welding and Close-Tolerance Outcomes
You've established specs and achieved stable throughput; now the joints must meet the same rigor. You expect welds that hold dimension under heat, load, and inspection. We deliver by regulating arc energy, travel speed, and bead geometry to ensure flatness, squareness, and parallelism across assemblies.
We combine robotic alignment with fixture repeatability and micro tolerance calibration at every setup. Vision-assisted seam tracking corrects path drift in real time, while pulsed parameters reduce distortion and HAZ. For thin-gauge parts, we balance penetration against heat input to avoid warping; for thick sections, we oversee multi-pass sequencing to protect tolerances.
Each weldment undergoes verification with CMM checks, profilometry, and dye penetrant as necessary. You receive reliable, tight-tolerance results that merge smoothly downstream eliminating rework needs.
Materials and Finishes Designed for Real-World Durability
Durability starts with the right alloy and the correct surface system for the environment. You pick 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 effectively. When weight is important, select 6061-T6 aluminum and hardcoat anodize to improve wear resistance. For carbon steel structures, prioritize galvanizing for sacrificial protection, then apply a high-build topcoat.
You manage finish durability by pairing coating chemistry to service class. Powder coat longevity depends 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 guarantee repeatable performance.
Rapid Service Without Sacrificing Standards
Even under tight deadlines, you meet deadlines by systematizing procedures, not taking shortcuts. You concentrate planning early: verify tolerances, identify alloys, fix tooling, and build CAM paths that limit tool changes and travel. You position raw stock, fixtures, and consumables so machines run continuously. For quick prototyping, you regularize material thicknesses and bend radii, letting you reuse verified setups and optimize part nesting. You precision-cut blanks, then advance to CNC forming and TIG and MIG welding with recorded WPS parameters that maintain strength and finish.
For emergency repair work, you assess the failure point, gauge surface wear, and engineer replacement components with CMM or laser scanning. You begin by machining critical surfaces, verify with in-process metrology, then assemble and finish. The result: rapid turnaround times without compromising durability or fit.
Transparent Pricing and Transparent Communication
Even as scope evolves, pricing remains fixed. You get granular estimates tied to engineering drawings, tolerance classes, and material specs, so pricing transparency is baked into your RFQ. We fix quoted rates to defined revision levels; any change initiates a documented delta with unit, setup, and finish costs separated. No hidden surcharges—facility time, consumables, and outside processes are enumerated.
We employ communication protocols designed to keep you informed while eliminating noise. Milestone updates are delivered to you: PO acceptance, materials received, first-article approval, inspection results during production, and shipment confirmation with traceable heat lots. We maintain a single point of contact, response SLAs, and change-control tickets that record approvals and timestamps. You can request CAD markups, weld maps, and CMM reports. Precise data, stable prices, and methodical coordination avoid unexpected issues and rework.
