Services: From Bespoke Prototypes to Manufacturing Runs
From initial prototype development to full-scale production, FireFoxxAuto LLC scales your metal fabrication with the same rigor at every stage. You get a systematic process: 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 refine designs without compromising dimensional accuracy.
When you reach the low volume production stage, we establish specifications with revision control, define process parameters, and implement copyright checks to ensure stable throughput. We manage BOMs, traceability, and lot-level documentation to preserve consistency across repeats. For volume production, we implement standard fixtures and tooling, adjust cycle times, and coordinate with your release cadence, delivering reliable delivery, predictable pricing, and repeatable, compliant parts.
Exact Welding and Close-Tolerance Outcomes
You've established specs and achieved stable 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 copyright flatness, squareness, and parallelism across assemblies.
We integrate 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 minimize distortion and HAZ. For thin-gauge parts, we balance penetration against heat input to prevent warping; for thick sections, we manage multi-pass sequencing to preserve tolerances.
Each weldment undergoes verification with CMM inspections, profilometry, and dye penetrant where required. You get dependable, high-precision results that integrate cleanly downstream without rework.
Materials and Finishes That Withstand Real-World Use
Durability starts with the right alloy and the correct surface system for the environment. You select materials based on load, exposure, and maintenance limitations. For coastal or deicing-salt conditions, specify 316 for outstanding stainless steel corrosion resistance; for interiors or mild exposure, 304 performs well. When weight is important, select 6061-T6 aluminum and hardcoat anodize to increase wear resistance. For carbon steel structures, prioritize galvanizing for sacrificial protection, then apply a high-build topcoat.
You manage finish life by aligning coating chemistry to service class. Powder coat durability depends on substrate prep: SSPC-SP 10 near-white blast, a zinc-rich primer, and a TGIC-polyester topcoat baked to spec. Verify with DFT readings, crosshatch adhesion, and salt-spray testing. Note callouts on drawings to secure repeatable performance.
Swift Turnarounds Without Taking Shortcuts
When facing strict deadlines, you maintain schedules by engineering the process, not omitting procedures. You front-load planning: verify tolerances, specify alloys, secure tooling, and produce CAM paths that decrease tool changes and travel. You position raw stock, fixtures, and consumables so machines maintain continuous operation. For fast prototyping, you unify material thicknesses and bend radii, letting you reuse proven setups and efficiently nest parts. You cut via laser blanks, then move to CNC forming and TIG/MIG fusion with established WPS parameters that preserve strength and finish.
When handling urgent repairs, you assess the failure point, gauge surface wear, 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 assemble and finish. The result: quick cycle times without sacrificing durability or fit.
Honest Pricing and Open Communication
Though scope evolves, pricing shouldn't. You get granular estimates connected to engineering drawings, tolerance classes, and material specs, so pricing transparency is integrated into your RFQ. We lock quoted rates to defined revision levels; any change generates a documented delta with unit, setup, and finish costs separated. No hidden surcharges—facility time, consumables, and outside processes are detailed.
Our communication protocols keep you informed without 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. Our system includes a single point of contact, response service level agreements, and change-control tickets recording approvals with timestamps. CAD markups, weld maps, and CMM reports are available upon request. Transparent data, consistent pricing, and structured coordination eliminate surprises and rework.
