SAKOR TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES MOVE TO LARGER, UPDATED FACILITY

COMPANY'S ACCELERATING SALES GROWTH HAS CREATED A NEED FOR EXPANDED FACILITIES





SAKOR Technologies, Inc., a recognized leader in the area of high-performance dynamometer systems, announces that it has moved from its previous facility in Okemos, Michigan to a much larger facility in Owosso, Michigan. The company has grown rapidly in the past several years, and the new building better supports SAKORs current and future growth.

The new facility, which will house the companys administrative, engineering, and manufacturing operations all together, formerly housed Baker Colleges Auto/Diesel Institute of Michigan. As such, the buildings design and facilities are ideal for SAKORs needs: it currently measures 20,000 sq. ft., has ample high-voltage electrical power, and is laid out in a way that is exceptionally convenient for SAKORs manufacturing needs.

"We look forward to the opportunity to work with Baker College that the move to this new facility will allow, and hope that our proximity will foster a sustained, mutually beneficial relationship," said Randal Beattie, President of SAKOR. "Taking over their facility, which was already set up in way that is highly conducive to our companys manufacturing needs, was truly an ideal solution."

The new facilitys production bays are large enough to accommodate manufacturing more products at one time and manufacturing much larger, more sophisticated projects on-site than were previously possible. These building features will play a part in sustaining the companys accelerating growth curve into the future.

"Weve been growing for quite some time, and since our growth rate has been accelerating dramatically in recent years, we felt that it was time to find a new facility that is better suited to both our current and future production needs. Fortunately, this building was available and is a prime location for the next phase of SAKORs growth," Beattie added. "Our team is excited for this next stage, and was motivated to move into the new building quickly in order to continue manufacturing without delays."

While SAKOR will likely undertake renovations to the new building in the near future, the company was able to move into the new space quickly, thereby allowing them to keep up with a busy production schedule and meet all promised delivery dates.

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
