Industrial manufacturers are always on the lookout for ways to improve efficiencies and optimize processes to speed up manufacturing time and get their products to market faster. To meet these ends, manufacturers need to continually innovate, adopting techniques that will enhance productivity and help reduce operational costs.

Kitting and sequencing are two advanced solutions we use at Arrow Off-Road to help our customers meet their production goals. We also encourage our suppliers to utilize these techniques to help keep our production processes streamlined and cost-effective for our customers.

Most businesses want to get their products to market as soon as possible to help them stay competitive, especially in an era when consumer demand drives innovation.

Although many metalworking suppliers can provide design and fabrication services, assembly is the critical missing link most suppliers lack the capacity to fulfill. Arrow Off-Road fills that gap.

The manufacturing industry is currently going through what’s been called the 4th Industrial Revolution, which, like steam power engines and assembly lines before it, is improving how we build things.

At the heart of this transformation is automation technology, which uses robots to fabricate products faster and optimize workplace processes, enabling goods to be delivered to customers more efficiently.

As part of our consultative process at Arrow Off-Road, our technicians recommend the most appropriate fabrication techniques to yield the highest quality results. These recommendations are based on various factors, including the customer’s design specifications and the end product’s application.

Metalworking is one of the oldest industries in history, with some historians dating its roots back to 8700 BC. Of course, there have been significant tech-based advancements over the last 10,000 years, with most of them introduced in the previous few decades.

Over the last few years, the metalworking industry has experienced several threats or outright stoppages to the global supply chain. Public health concerns, lockdowns, overseas

Arrow Off-Road’s roots in the metalworking and fabrication industry go back to 1923. Since then, we’ve seen new technology transform our sector, improving efficiency, enhancing quality, and saving our OEM customers time and money.

Industry 4.0 is the latest tech revolution, marking a new era in metal manufacturing.

Our company has roots in the metalworking industry going back to 1923, and when we think of how our forefathers used manual processes to fabricate precise metal parts, their efforts and commitment seem nothing less than heroic.

That’s because today’s fabrication facilities are outfitted with modern technology that helps projects get completed in much less time, far less labour, and at a much more attractive price point.

Traditionally, many large businesses operated with a single-minded purpose: to maximize profits, whether by cutting costs, raising prices, or strategically hiring. 

However, it’s now much more commonplace for business leaders to look beyond profits, using their resources to help create a better society today while contributing to a more sustainable world for future generations. This is call corporate social responsibility.

An integral part of our daily operations at Arrow Off-Road is implementing several procedures and protocols that foster a culture of safety in all of our facilities. Although protecting our team members who work with heavy equipment and hazardous chemicals is critical to our business, we also apply safety practices to protect non-production personnel and site visitors.
