Equipment and tooling for the work you do.

Your team may need a cleaning unit for a particular component, a fixture to hold a part, or a tool that makes maintenance easier. We work with your manufacturing, engineering, and maintenance teams to develop equipment that fits the job.

We also help improve existing components and develop tooling for repair and reuse. The examples below show where we can help.

01

Custom Equipment and Tooling

Equipment That Fits the Job

Firelands designs and builds customized equipment, tooling, and fixtures for cleaning, testing, inspection, and assembly. We work with your team on one-off equipment that fits your parts and the way you work.

The situation

Your team needs equipment for cleaning, testing, or inspection that is not available off the shelf.

Firelands response

Review the part, how the equipment will be used, and the space and safety requirements. Develop custom equipment or tooling around those needs.

Typical work

  • 01Pressure transducer cleaning equipment
  • 02Custom test fixtures
  • 03Assembly and inspection fixtures
  • 04Dedicated component cleaning and flushing equipment
  • 05Special tooling and maintenance equipment

02

Product Improvement and Redesign

Make the Existing Product Better

When a component repeatedly creates reliability, durability, assembly, or service problems, Firelands can help redesign the weak point.

The situation

A component or assembly repeatedly creates reliability, service, manufacturing, or field-performance problems.

Firelands response

Find out why the component fails and improve its design while maintaining fit with the existing equipment.

Typical work

  • 01Y-strainer screen redesign
  • 02Improved filtration assemblies
  • 03Material and structural changes
  • 04Improved support structures
  • 05Design changes for easier assembly or service

03

Rework and Repair

Recover Components Instead of Scrapping Them

Firelands develops dedicated equipment, repair tooling, and inspection fixtures to help manufacturing teams clean, rework, and check components for reuse.

The situation

A valuable component could be recovered, but the team lacks suitable cleaning, repair, or inspection tooling.

Firelands response

Develop dedicated cleaning equipment, repair tooling, or inspection fixtures that help the team recover and check the component.

Typical work

  • 01Pressure transducer cleaning
  • 02Component reconditioning
  • 03Repair tooling and inspection fixtures
  • 04Validation after repair
  • 05Component recovery fixtures

Manufacturing Support Tooling

Tools That Make the Work Easier

A part is difficult to hold. An inspection needs a dedicated fixture. A maintenance task needs a special tool. Firelands works with your manufacturing team to develop the tooling or component improvement you need.

The situation

An awkward assembly, inspection, or maintenance task needs a tool or fixture that is not available off the shelf.

Firelands response

Work with the people using the equipment to develop a fixture, tool, or component improvement that makes the job easier.

Typical work

  • 01Part protection and handling aids
  • 02Dedicated test and inspection fixtures
  • 03Special maintenance tools
  • 04Assembly and alignment aids
  • 05Component improvements for reliability

Support for the people doing the work

Built for your team.

We start by understanding how your team does the work and where they need help. The equipment should be easy to load, use, clean, and maintain. Available space, operator access, safety, and the parts being handled all shape the design.
