Services: Ranging 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 structured workflow: 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 compromising dimensional accuracy.
When you reach the low volume production stage, we lock specifications with revision control, establish process parameters, and introduce copyright checks to ensure stable throughput. We control BOMs, traceability, and lot-level documentation to maintain consistency across repeat orders. For full production runs, we implement standard fixtures and tooling, calibrate cycle times, and schedule to your release cadence, delivering reliable delivery, predictable costs, and reliable, compliant parts.
Exact Welding and Close-Tolerance Outcomes
Specifications are locked and throughput is stabilized; now the joints must meet the same rigor. You expect welds that hold dimension 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 combine robotic alignment with fixture repeatability and precise calibration at every setup. Vision-guided 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 oversee multi-pass sequencing to preserve tolerances.
All weldments undergo verification with CMM checks, profilometry, and dye penetrant when needed. You obtain consistent, tight-tolerance results that merge smoothly downstream without requiring rework.
Materials and Finishes Built for Real-World Use
Longevity depends on the right alloy and the correct surface system for the environment. You select materials based on load, exposure, and maintenance constraints. For coastal or deicing-salt conditions, specify 316 for excellent Stainless corrosion resistance; for interiors or mild exposure, 304 performs effectively. When weight matters, 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 surface finish longevity by aligning coating chemistry to service class. Powder coat longevity hinges on substrate prep: SSPC-SP 10 near-white blast, a zinc-rich primer, and a TGIC-polyester topcoat cured to spec. Validate with DFT readings, crosshatch adhesion, and salt-spray testing. Note callouts on drawings to secure repeatable performance.
Rapid Service Without Sacrificing Standards
Under pressure from tight schedules, you achieve milestones by optimizing workflows, not taking shortcuts. You load planning at the start: determine tolerances, pick alloys, finalize tooling, and build CAM paths that minimize tool changes and travel. You prepare raw stock, fixtures, and consumables so machines operate without interruption. For fast prototyping, you normalize material thicknesses and bend radii, helping you reuse validated setups and nest components effectively. You precision-cut blanks, then shift to CNC forming and TIG/MIG weld processes with documented WPS parameters that maintain strength and finish.
When handling urgent repairs, you assess the failure point, measure wear surfaces, and reconstruct the replacement geometry with coordinate measuring machines or laser scanning. You begin by machining critical surfaces, confirm using in-process metrology, then complete assembly and finishing. The result: fast cycle times without reducing durability or fit.
Transparent Pricing and Open Communication
Even as scope evolves, pricing should remain stable. You get line-by-line 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 prompts a documented delta with unit, setup, and finish costs separated. No hidden surcharges—shop time, consumables, and outside processes are enumerated.
Our communication protocols keep you informed without noise. You'll receive milestone updates: 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 have access to CAD markups, weld maps, and coordinate measuring machine reports. Clear data, predictable prices, and disciplined coordination prevent surprises and rework.
