ACS - Manufacturing / Custom Equipment
Our custom equipment process design engineers and in-house fabrication staff, including electricians, machinists and welders are experts at creating custom components that precisely meet recommended specifications and tolerances. Our manufacturing facility is staffed with engineering and production personnel who work side-by-side. The facility offers full machining capabilities, complete metal fabrication, space for equipment prototypes and facility mockups, software integration and a UL listed electrical and control panel build shop. Our in-house capabilities allow us to meet the schedule, budget and operational requirements of the most demanding applications.
With a strong background in product testing (both in-line and end-of-line), test sequence configuration, Safety Instruments System (SIS) monitoring and systems integration, ACS designs and builds stand-alone test stands and stations as well as test enclosures and systems that are integrated into an overall manufacturing plant. Increasing throughput and improving efficiency, we have designed and built fully automated test and test article transportation systems including test pallets, carts, and control systems fully integrated with a conveying system.
Where modifications to the building infrastructure are required to support the new test processes, ACS’ experience and expertise in engineering and fabricating custom processing equipment and systems, as well as our ability to hold construction contracts and manage the onsite installation and commissioning, is what sets us apart.
ACS can handle individual pieces of equipment or the entire testing system for you. From potato chips to gensets and diesel engine assembly and testing, we have streamlined processes in facility renovation and new construction environments.

All of FRIWO's standard devices are delivered with a 1.83-meter secondary cable. At the end of this cable there is a coupling for the proven secondary adapter system. A range of easy-to-mount coaxial and jack connectors makes the system extremely flexible for use in a wide range of applications. The required polarity can be achieved by reversing the secondary connector. Custom cables can also be installed. Our experts are always happy to help you choose what you need.
