Stainless Steel Tray and Carrier for Clipper Blades
Stainless Steel Tray and Carrier for Clipper Blades
Our customer manufactures clipper blades and needed a stainless steel tray and carrier system to hold the blades through a full rotation cleaning process, a heat treating process, and a chemical dip. The system needed to be easy to load to keep up with their high volume production lines, the system had to secure the parts so they couldn’t fall out or get damaged in the full rotation cleaning process, and the design had robust enough to withstand rough handling in the various different processes.
