Chute Blocker Components
For OEM partners, consistency matters just as much as capability. That’s exactly what this program delivers. We manufacture metal components for the chute blocker system used by a lawn industry company — a product designed to improve safety and control for lawn care customers. This is not a one-off job. It’s a structured contract manufacturing […]
Custom Locking Brackets
This project began with customer-provided drawings and finished with production-ready components. Our team managed the entire process in-house—combining fabrication and precision machining on our horizontal line boring machine, followed by sandblasting and powder coating. The result: durable locking brackets built to perform in demanding manufacturing environments. Click Now to Explore Fabrication Capabilities Meet Lance Allen: […]
Custom Tooling Fixture Boosts Multi-Size Machining Efficiency
For this project, our team was tasked with designing and building a custom tooling fixture to support high-mix production on a horizontal machining center. Working from the customer’s design package, we reviewed part geometry, tolerances, and machining requirements to develop a fixture that would maximize rigidity, repeatability, and ease of changeover. The finished fixture was […]
Full Roof Restoration
Our Field Coatings team recently completed a full roof restoration for a manufacturer, improving durability and long-term weather protection for the facility. Scope of Work: Pressure washed the existing roof to remove all contaminants and ensure proper adhesion Applied a rust-inhibitor primer to protect against corrosion Inspected and tightened all screw heads Caulked and sealed […]
Ejector Plate Repair Using Liquid Nitrogen
This ejector plate came from a high-volume injection molding machine that had been in service for many years. Over time, the guide rod bores wore beyond functional limits, threatening production uptime. Rather than replace the unit, our engineering and machining teams designed a cost-effective repair solution that restored the equipment to full performance. Key project […]
Custom Fabricated Platforms, Hoppers, Chutes
Forged for performance. Finished for durability. Overview: We’re working with an industrial manufacturer on their new facility, designing and fabricating platforms, hoppers, and chutes built to handle the load. These heavy-duty structures support conveyors built to move tons of aggregate across the plant. The project spans nearly a year, with our team delivering each section in […]
Internal Spline Cut Gears
Internal Spline Cutting on Wire EDMWe completed a project for a customer in the manufacturing industry, producing internal splines on a set of gears using our Wire EDM capabilities for accuracy and a fine surface finish—without inducing stress or distortion in the material. This method was ideal for tight tolerances and hard-to-machine areas, especially where […]
Laser Cut Mower Components
Laser Cut Mower Components Laser-cutting precision components at our Louisville, KY region facility for a lawn mower chute stopper. Our Bystronic laser processes material up to 72″ x 144″ and delivers clean, high-accuracy cuts on mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. This advanced capability ensures efficiency and consistency, making it ideal for both prototyping and […]
Damaged Shaft Repair
Rush Breakdown Repair – Shaft Restoration We recently completed an urgent shaft repair for a customer experiencing gearbox failure. The damaged shaft required immediate attention to minimize downtime. Our process included: Cleaning and preparing the damaged areas for welding Welding the shaft to restore its integrity Machining the welded areas to precise dimensions Cutting new […]
Safety Pins & Counterweights
Nix Industrial recently completed a custom fabrication project for a battery plant, delivering 96 counterweight safety pins designed to operate as essential safety lock mechanisms. This project showcased the collaboration and expertise across our Custom Fabrication, Advanced Machining, and Coatings teams. Scope of Work:The safety pins were engineered to meet the plant’s strict safety and […]
