Po zahájení činnosti v roce 1947 vznikla široká zákaznická základna. Rádi posloucháme příběhy našich zákazníků: tak poznáváme problémy, kterým čelí. Tyto výzvy ukazují, kde je třeba dalšího vývoje a rozšíření sortimentu. Naši zákazníci pocházejí z různých průmyslových odvětví, proto musíme neustále aktualizovat specifické oborové znalosti. To se promítá do našeho sortimentu: znalosti specifické pro dané odvětví obohacují nabídku produktů Fabory a udržují ji relevantní.
Přístup specifický pro dané odvětví odpovídá potřebám zákazníků. Může jít o zákazníky z oblasti strojírenství, kteří se zaměřují na potravinářský průmysl. Nebo zákazníci z polovodičového a zdravotnického průmyslu. Dalšími příklady odvětví, ve kterých specifikujeme sortiment Fabory, jsou výroba nákladních automobilů, přívěsů a autobusů, petrochemie a energetika.
Upozorňujeme na dvě odvětví:
Odvětví výroby nákladních automobilů, přívěsů a autobusů je pro společnost Fabory již desítky let klíčovým odvětvím. Jako zákazníkům v tomto odvětví vám nyní sloužíme také na základě skladového principu.
Jedná se o nejčastěji objednávané spojovací prvky ze sortimentu Fabory zákazníky v tomto odvětví:
Ocelové matice jsme vám jako zákazníkovi již dodali, ale dobrým příkladem specifické průmyslové práce je dodávka ocelových matic s povrchovou úpravou zinkovými vločkami. Potřeba tohoto výrobku rostla, a protože výroba v oboru výroby nákladních automobilů, přívěsů a autobusů nesmí nikdy stagnovat, dodává společnost Fabory 2 000 výrobků s povrchovou úpravou zinkovou vločkou ze skladu. Tam, kde jiné vrstvy zinku často příliš ztloustnou, má povlak ze zinkových vloček tenkou tloušťku vrstvy s vysokou odolností proti korozi.
Knapen Trailers from Deurne in Brabant uses 60 unique zinc flake fasteners from Fabory. On the shop floor of the producer of moving floor trailers, employees reach for many thousands of Fabory articles with a zinc flake treatment every week. Johan van Hommelen, a strategic purchaser at Knapen Trailers, explains that the corrosion resistance of the fasteners is an crucial factor for the company. “Our trailers, and therefore also the fastening materials used, are exposed to wind and weather year after year. The influence of the weather on the materials is significant.”
Hundreds of zinc flake fasteners disappear in every trailer: the chassis, the floor frame, the superstructure and various trailer components. The stock management of the zinc flake fasteners remains stable thanks to an RFID solution. “The complete ordering process, including that of the zinc flake fasteners, is taken care of”
Blind riveting is a commonly used fastening technique within the Truck, Trailer & Coachbuilding industry. A solution used in almost every bus, truck or trailer. The front to the back and everything in-between the cab, seats, chassis, roof rails, safety structures, floor systems and more.
Depending on the application, a standard blind rivet or blind rivet nut can get the job done. For the more critical applications in this industry, Fabory has structural blind rivets and lockbolts available for you, among other things.
In the Food Industry industry, customers need to be able to work efficiently with fasteners that comply with strict laws and regulations. The corrosion-resistance of the material makes stainless steel fasteners ideal in this industry, where hygiene is paramount. The stainless steel tap bolt is a commonly used fastener with the hexagon nut.
When using stainless steel fasteners, often the inner and outer threads get stuck together and the fastener can no longer be loosened. Producers in the food industry sector often prevent this cold welding (settling) of stainless steel material by using an assembly paste. Unfortunately, there are drawbacks to this: assembly takes extra time and workpieces and hands must be cleaned after use. We found a solution especially for this industry: a pre-applied lubrication that prevents the screw thread from seizing. The Fabory Lubrinox fasteners are bolts, nuts and screws made of stainless steel with a specially developed coating that provides durable lubrication in the threaded connection. Here are the biggest benefits:
The design and production company Geelen Counterflow from Haelen is one of the companies allowed to take the lead in testing Lubrinox. The fasteners provided with lubrication disappear in coolers and dryers for the food industry. Several copies of these coolers and dryers are sent out at Geelen Counterflow weekly. They leave for places all over the world.
Due to the intensive use of stainless steel fasteners, the company was looking for a cost-effective alternative to lubrication on bolts. René Derckx, the technical purchaser at Geelen Counterflow: "We were curious whether the solution devised by Fabory would also meet our wishes. The main premise was that threads do not get stuck. You don't want to have to cut or drill out a screw."
Another coating that employees use in the workplace is a lot thicker. Fabory's Lubrinox fasteners do not need such a thick layer. "A thick layer makes it more difficult to drive screws by hand. They get very greasy. If you need to use force, slide your fingers over the hex. You do not have that with Lubrinox. The reactions on the shop floor are positive during this test"
In addition to the extensive and specified range, customers from the various industries are supported with logistics solutions and technical advice and research. Fabory supplies specific fasteners to, among others, the sectors below:
If you cannot find a fastener, we will ensure that it can still be delivered. If another manufacturer does not have the item or if it is a non-existing item, we design it ourselves or have it made.
