Time can be saved right from the start when it comes to choosing the proper assembly components by working with a knowledgeable supplier that can guide the designer towards the component best suited for the given application. The application engineers at Rotor Clip are experts when it comes to helping customers find the ring, spring, or clamp that best meets fit, function, and budget. Clear and open communication, combined with expert knowledge and experience saves time from the outset. Design engineers won’t have to search long on their own or even consider a custom part. Many times a suitable standard catalog item can be found in a short order due to Rotor Clip’s very broad product range of standard circlips, snap rings, wave springs, and hose clamps that are stocked and ready to ship.
If a custom part is the only viable option for the given application demands and constraints, the Rotor Clip team works closely with each customer to develop, test, and adjust the custom design until it is deemed ready for series production. Rotor Clip utilizes 3D printing technology to create models of the actual applications in which a circlip, snap ring, or wave spring is to operate and test it for fit and function right in their own facilities. This significantly shortens development timelines because individual iterations of prototypes do not need to be shipped to and tested at the customer’s facility. If design changes are needed, adjustments can be made on the spot at the place of production. The results are near series ready prototypes and samples that can be quickly placed into the hands of the customer.
Rotor Clip employs state of the art measuring instruments on its production floors and utilizes its in-house metrology lab to ensure the continuous and expedient production of precision parts with tight tolerances for the end user.
