MLS Systems retrofitted a refrigerator cabinet line where weld
joints were replaced with BTM lance joints. As with many retrofit
projects that MLS Systems performs, this retrofit was performed over a
holiday shut down when production had stopped. The components were
thoroughly tested on our floor then shipped and installed on the
main production line at the customer's facility.

The machine above incorporated a four station dial table where
automotive components were manually loaded and staked into place.
MLS Systems has built many machines which utilize custom metal
joining operations such as staking.

MLS Systems has designed many machines which incorporate metal
clinching like the machine above which performs Tox joints to oven
cook tops. This machine operated at a 9 second cycle time and
performed approximately 12 Tox joints to the cook tops attaching
stiffening brackets to the corners and underneath side.

MLS Systems has designed many machines which incorporate metal
clinching like the machine above which performs Tox joints to vent
assemblies. This machine operated at a 8.5 second cycle time and
performs approximately 18 Tox joints to the vent assemblies. |
