Manufacture industrial chemical tank stands for onsite usage. The stands vary in sizes, and there are multiple designs for material alloy choices.
TMCO reviewed this customer’s supplied prints and provided feedback or alterations based on our current capabilities. Once approved, we set-up parts internally to provide an accurate quote. This process included department review to develop production times and current material pricing, as well as to design fixtures and tooling needed for this project.
After the stands were developed and a pricing quote was accepted, we immediately developed fixturing that would be required for production. In the meantime, material was ordered so we could start cutting and developing stands to print. This process included cutting tubes to length, forming to the needed dimensions, and welding to the final structure. The last step was to powder the stands to the required paint spec, then either deliver locally or ship to the needed destination.
While this is an ongoing project, the customer continues to trust the processes we developed with them, and we’ve become a long-time supplier.
We are in constant communication with customer in regard to pricing for both new and existing products, and we continually shop the material market to ensure we are giving the best competitive pricing.
TMCO replenishes tank stand inventory, so this manufacturer can quickly stock their customers for their commercial needs and farm land uses.
OEM supply chain strategy in 2026 requires more than lower prices or fewer suppliers. Learn how total-cost analysis, selective consolidation, regional sourcing, reliable data, supplier-risk planning, and early engineering collaboration can improve resilience without creating new concentration risks.
Consistent powder coating depends on a controlled system-not appearance alone. Learn how surface preparation, powder selection, application, cure validation, film-thickness measurement, and project-specific inspection standards affect finish quality and rework risk.
The term turnkey does not explain which processes are performed internally, how capacity is planned, or what the quoted price includes. Use this practical checklist to evaluate process scope, quality, engineering support, accountability, and total program cost before choosing a manufacturing partner.
Precision sheet metal forming at production volume requires more than capable equipment. Learn how material controls, repeatable setups, tooling management, springback compensation, and in-process inspection produce consistent results.
A strong OEM procurement strategy does more than reduce purchase prices. It lowers supplier risk, improves production consistency, and builds a supply chain that continues performing when disruptions occur.
Aluminum fabrication services can vary significantly in material knowledge, production capabilities, and quality consistency. Learn what OEMs should demand from a fabrication partner before committing to production.
Choosing a turnkey manufacturer for complex OEM production requires more than comparing quotes. Learn which criteria separate reliable production partners from manufacturers that may create problems as your program grows.
Choosing between metal fabrication companies in the USA requires more than comparing prices. Learn how to evaluate capabilities, quality, experience, capacity, and communication.
Unit price does not reveal the complete cost of metal manufacturing. Compare full-service manufacturing with piecemeal sourcing across freight, quality, coordination, and lead time.
