As explained by Gary Miles, our MD the Rocfast Assembly and Logistics service is an important service tool in the armoury of specialist panel builders – for hardware required to suit enclosures and cabinets. Knowing which components can work together and how to assemble them can be a significant stumbling block in correctly specifying and equipping a custom panel.
With much experience in this area, the team here at FDB Panel Fittings are capable of guiding design engineers and supply chain managers, through the complex choices of components and then arranging delivery of the items required in batches to suit production numbers and to the location of choice – whether workshop or installation site. Thus, saving time and money while ensuring enhanced customer service to the end user.
The system allows specifying engineers to call the Rocfast team and discuss the project hardware needs e.g. type and size of quarter turn lock or latch coupled and sealing requirement, with hinge type and gasket section. – body length, insert, sealing gasket, tab length and offset, tab closure options, earthing washer, key type etc. thus saving a great deal of shop floor time. We also offer data sheets to help engineers through this process on their own.
Once the specification is concluded the logistics side of Rocfast can manage supply batches and production kits in alignment with manufacturing and/or installation requirements to workshop or on-site on a global basis if needed.
