Oscillator Design
An oscillator designed by TWG and fabricated by Central Material Handling Systems. Utilizing Solidworks, TWG designed the machine in 3D, then developed fabrication drawings for Central MHS to build off of. Each design done for Central MHS is client-specific and custom-made to order.

Scroll Wheel Modification
A scroll wheel that needed modifications done in order to ensure proper functionality and increase longevity. Metrology instruments were used to verify the dimensional accuracy of the scroll wheel. These dimensions were then used to reverse-engineer the wheel in Solidworks for use in design modification. Jeff Joos, owner of Joos Fabrication and located in Washington…

Ferrous Sorting System
This is a ferrous sorting system that Central Manufacturing built for United Iron & Metal. Central Manufacturing was contacted to replace an old system that had been running for 25+ years and saw opportunity to improve upon the old design in a few areas. The system was designed in SolidWorks where fabrication drawings were also…

Formula 1 Screen Bezel
This screen bezel was designed for use in a Formula 1 Racing Simulator. The steering wheel was a purchased part brought to us where we reverse engineered the wheel in Autodesk Inventor. The screen bezel was then designed to fit the contours of the steering wheel and house a 3.5″ screen. The bezel was 3D…

Welding Fixtures
This case study explores the implementation of 3D rendering technology in the design and development of welding fixtures. By leveraging advanced 3D modeling software, the team was able to create highly accurate virtual representations of the fixtures before physical production began. This approach not only facilitated comprehensive design reviews and optimizations but also enabled seamless…

Dewatering Wheel
The dewatering wheel serves a critical role in separating a mixture comprising water, sand, and gravel. Loos Service & Supply, Inc. approached TWG with a pressing need: to develop comprehensive documentation from scratch, owing to the unavailability of original documents. This initiative aims to create a detailed model that includes every facet of the dewatering…

Dynamic Rotary Trommel
We had the opportunity to create a 3D rendering and fabrication drawings of a trommel used to separate and classify different sizes of materials based on their physical size. Utilizing SolidWorks, TWG was able to generate extremely precise 3D models & fabrication drawings for Central MHS to fabricate. With over 50 years in the scrap…
