Commercial

Components and assemblies machined or produced by TCS are used in a variety of commercial applications, including pneumatic tools, hand tools, and lawn and garden equipment.

Typical Manufacturing Challenges

Built for volume, priced for the market.

Commercial tools and equipment compete on durability and cost as much as performance. Components have to hold up to repeated use in the field while being manufactured efficiently enough to meet production-volume pricing.

That combination — consistent quality at the volumes commercial manufacturers need, without a premium price tag — is where many outside machine shops struggle, particularly when a component has to move through several distinct processes before it's finished.

How TCS Helps

One facility, every process a commercial part needs.

Components and assemblies machined or produced by TCS are used in a variety of commercial applications, including pneumatic tools, hand tools, and lawn and garden equipment.

TCS runs more than 32 manufacturing processes fully integrated in-house at its Rock Valley facility, so commercial components can move through machining, grinding, and finishing operations without being shipped between outside suppliers — keeping cost, lead time, and quality under one roof.

Relevant Capabilities

Capabilities suited to commercial components

Example Component Types

Where these components are used.

Pneumatic Tools

Precision-machined components for pneumatic tool applications.

Hand Tools

Components and assemblies produced for hand tool manufacturers.

Lawn & Garden Equipment

Components machined for use in lawn and garden equipment.

Engineering Considerations

Value-engineered from the first drawing.

TCS's dedicated, full-service internal engineering staff works to bring value-engineered solutions to market rapidly, cost-effectively, and with outstanding quality — a fit for commercial products where cost and speed to market matter as much as precision.

Using AutoCAD and Mastercam® software, TCS's engineers simulate tool paths and machining sequences for optimum efficiency and accuracy before the first chip is cut, and the engineering team can help source, test, and qualify materials for a specific commercial application.

Quality Considerations

Consistent quality at production volume.

TCS is an ISO 9001:2015 registered manufacturer, registered by NSF-ISR under certificate C0098313-IS3. In-house quality systems include Vision and CMM measurement systems, an SPC network, a metallurgy lab, spline and gear checking capabilities, and micro-hardness testing — helping keep commercial-volume components consistent from the first part to the last.
