SMT is a
company that has been specializing in custom-built
assembly machines for 27 years. Each machine is custom designed
by our experienced engineering department and built to meet
the specifications of our customers. SMT can start with
a print and build to suit production requirements and customer
machine specifications.
PROTOTYPE ASSEMBLY
Call SMT for prototype assembly
as well as low and high volume assembly. SMT can machine prototype
tooling in house for speedy turnaround for your customer's demanding
needs. We have a large fabrication department, supported by outstanding
engineering and experienced fabrication / assembly technicians.
MANUAL ASSEMBLY FIXTURES
SMT can also provide you with high
quality manual assembly fixtures. Designed, fabricated and build
in house!
AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY FUEL CUPS
SMT
designed this machine to assemble cups to fuel tubes
for the automotive
industry. The first machine station pressed two
fuel tubes into a pre-assembled cup. After the tubes
were pressed to specification, the machine welded a cross
bracket as well
as a mounting bracket to the tube / cup assembly. SMT
Industries utilized high frequency DC welding for bracket
fastening. Our
welding system can weld thin wall stainless materials with very
strong pre-braze welds and no discoloration!
FUEL RAIL ASSEMBLY
SMT designed a
machine to assemble and inlet assembly to a
main fuel rail for the automotive industry. Tge
first machine station pressed the inlet / outlet
tube assembly into
the main fuel rail. SMT Industries also built the cup
assembly equipment as well as a restrike machine that tweaked
the entire fuel rail assembly to specification after the
braze operation!
INLET ASSEMBLY
Here is another high
volume automotive assembly machine. SMT designed and
built this
machine to assemble a block to an inlet assembly to an
inlet tube. This machine did the bending of the inlet
tube as well. SMT Industries will completely automate
the system if your EAV's require. Load the tubes and
blocks into hopper, press cycle start and walk away!
FLANGE ASSEMBLY
SMT designed and
built this
automotive assembly machine to crimp tubes into
a fuel sending flange assembly. SMT
Industries also designed and built the flange welding machine. The
welding criteria was very demanding, but easily done with SMT
Industries engineering and component selections.
TRUCK MOTOR ASSEMBLY
SMT designed and built a
machine to press
a piston cooler tube into a mounting
flange. This
machine also bent the tube after the braze operation, which
was put through an automatic target and pressure test. This
part had to spray liquid and hit a target 13 inches
away within a .375 inch target hole, as well as meet the
specified pressure. The
part sprays the hot spot on the bottom side of a diesel motor
piston. Also,
we incorporated an additional leak testing station (pre bend)
to check the braze.
APPLIANCE COMPONENT ASSEMBLY
SMT
designed and built this
machine to press a rivet into the stove hinge assembly. The
rivet is automatically fed into a ram unit and opened up
on the opposite side. A vibratory bowl fed the rivets
to the assembly. Super
fast cycle for demanding production numbers.
INJECTOR CUP ASSEMLBLY
SMT
designed and built this
machine to
stake all four injector cups into both the right and left hand
main fuel rails. Solid holding until the assembly was brazed.
DUAL TORQUE GUN ASSEMBLY
SMT
designed and built this
machine to
attached an fuel sensing unit to a bracket that is welded
to a fuel rail. The torque gun system monitored the torque,
watching for the correct criteria. It the proper criteria
was not met, the machine would hold the rejected part until a
fail tag was placed on the part.
