Capabilities
Amerequip's integrated manufacturing capabilities focus on flexibility and finished product quality.

Amerequip’s vertically integrated manufacturing capability consists of three manufacturing facilities which provide a wide range of manufacturing processes to support the production of a large variety of finished products. Amerequip's attachments are typically shipped directly into our customers’ distribution system, reflecting confidence in the quality of the products manufactured. (top)

Paint and Final Assembly
Components and sub-assemblies manufactured by our supplying plants, plus purchased components, are painted and assembled into a wide range of finished goods.

Our e-coat base and electrostatic top coat paint systems meet the highest quality standards required by our customers.

Each part receives several cleanings before a tough undercoating is applied and then baked on. After the undercoating cools, each part is then coated for a second time with an electrostatic top coat. The part is then baked for a second time.

After painting, all products are assembled on one of our seven assembly lines, functionally tested and shipped. As many as 300 different products can be assembled within this facility. (top) 

Fabrication, Laser, Machining and Welding
Amerequip fabricates and machines various piece parts for use in weldments and assemblies. Processes include shearing, sawing, blanking, and forming, bending, and machining. Amerequip manufactures hydraulic cylinders and other machined components for use in finished products. The machining facility consists of CNC turning equipment and vertical machining centers.

Our press capabilities, ranging from 15 to 500 tons, support the manufacture of parts from the smallest clip to large parts utilizing dies up to 64 inches x 26 inches. Secondary machining operations on fabricated parts is provided by equipment such as our vertical machining center. Vertical machining centers are used for drilling, milling and tapping. Weldments range in size from one pound to 500 pounds. This includes weldments for mower decks, backhoes, loaders and a range of other products. Modular weld table fixturing is utilized for lower volume weldments.

Welding capabilities include robot welding of part sizes up to 72 inches. The balance of our welding area consists of approximately 20 workstations with wire-feed pulse welding equipment. This technology enables a better quality product and improved environmental conditions. Modular weld fixturing is utilized for lower volume weldments that do not justify investment in dedicated weld fixtures.(top)

Hydraulic Cylinder Manufacturing
Amerequip manufactures hydraulic cylinders and other machined components for use in finished products with equipment consisting of CNC turning equipment and vertical machining centers. This CNC equipment has downloading capabilities from the manufacturing engineering department. Present capacity for the turning equipment ranges from 3-inch bar stock to a 15-inch chucking capacity. The majority of this equipment is used to manufacture hydraulic cylinder components, which requires a high degree of accuracy. New vertical machining equipment has provided additional capability and capacity. Hydraulic cylinders are assembled and tested in a clean room, after which they are painted at this facility prior to delivery to final assembly. (top)

Contract Manufacturing
Taking advantage of opportunities with a significant OEM account, Amerequip added a Contract Manufacturing Service to its design and build offerings. This resulted in building product designed by others, which included 60" and 72" mower decks along with smaller service decks.

Under this arrangement, Amerequip has manufactured a variety of self-propelled golf course mowers and commercial walk-behind product.

We remain a strong design and build organization with emphasis on the backhoe product. This is evidenced by our current product line, which has been vigorously accepted by our current OEM accounts. (top)
