Super-Bolt Tool
Custom Machining and Production

Our customer was experiencing fatigue while removing Supernuts (SuperBolts) after loosening the nuts, they still had to spin them off manually over multiple threads.

Our Solution:
We developed a custom tool that attaches to an impact driver, allowing quick and efficient removal of the nuts without manual effort.

Work Completed

  • 3D design and modeling based on customer requirements

  • In-house engineering collaboration to address ergonomic fatigue

  • Development of an impact-driver attachment for quick Supernut removal

  • CNC machining, precision drilling, and dimensional finishing

  • Prototyping and field testing with the customer

  • Production of multiple identical tools

Results

A safer, faster, and more ergonomic maintenance process for our customer.

4140 Steel Lugs
for a Marine Customer

Our machine shop produced a run of precision machined 4140 steel lugs for a marine industry customer. These components were designed to withstand high load conditions and demanding operating environments that are common in marine applications.

Work Completed

  • Material selection and preparation using 4140 alloy steel

  • Precision CNC Turning of each lug to the required dimensions

  • Finishing of contact surfaces for smooth installation

  • Quality inspection for consistency across the full production batch

Purpose and Applications

4140 steel lugs are used in heavy marine assemblies that require strength, durability, and resistance to wear. These parts are often integrated into lifting systems, mounting hardware, structural connections, and vibration resistant assemblies.

Results

The completed lugs were delivered with a polished finish, tight dimensional accuracy, and consistent quality across the entire batch. The components were ready for immediate use in a marine environment.

Pizza Dough Docker Handle
Redesign for Improved Safety and Performance

A commercial kitchen client needed a more efficient and ergonomic way to dimple pizza dough. Their staff were manually dimpling the dough, causing wrist strain and requiring multiple employees per day to keep up with production.

The customer brought our team a rough prototype that we re-engineered into a full product and food-safe design.

The redesigned handheld docker had better ergonomics, an easy to clean toolless design and a simplified integrated handle to reduce cost.

What We Did

  • Identified stress points and expensive fabrication in the original handheld tool

  • Designed a more ergonomic 3D-modeled handle

  • Strengthened the roller attachment for heavy-duty use

  • Produced prototypes and finalized food-safe production units

RESULTS

In high-volume kitchens, repetitive dough preparation can lead to strain and slowdowns.
The improved handheld design reduced fatigue, while the dough docker eliminated manual dimpling and increased daily throughput.
