Cambridge, ON based Todd Engineering is a design and fabrication company specializing in machinery targeting the automotive, woodworking, plastics and metal working industries. Recently, the company was approached by a customer to design a polishing machine for individual components which vary in width and length.
During the design process, Todd Engineering was able to eliminate the need for multiple machines that would normally be required to handle the polishing process by creating and fabricating a “multi-task machine”. With Trans-Quip’s aid, they were able to develop their idea and bring it to market. By adapting one Joyce® machine screw jacks (model WJ250U2S-5-STDX-STDX-X) to each of the polishing wheels, this multi-task polishing
machine is easily adjusted. The hand wheels manually raise and lower the machine screw jacks positioning the polishing wheels to match to the size each component.
