As one of the Northeast’s leading manufacturers of springs, at Plymouth Spring Company, Inc., we have been working with wire since 1959. Our custom wire forms and precision pin manufacturing services highlight our ability to provide high-quality, cost-effective solutions for customers across a broad range of industries. We have provided wire forms and precision pins for applications from aerospace, automotive, and electronics to mining, plumbing, and the power distribution industries.
Being able to provide products and services to such a wide range of industries and applications requires the ability to deliver flexibility in more than just the type of products that we can manufacture. We also offer process flexibility; the diversity and the sheer number of systems we operate enable us to deliver to the most demanding production schedule and to an array of highly stringent industry standards. This includes meeting standards set by ANSI, ASME, ASTM, DFARS, ISO, various MIL-Spec, and many more.
The needs of such a broad customer base vary widely; to support such diversity, we can work with an equally diverse range of materials. These encompass various steels and steel alloys to aluminum, brass bronze, stainless steel, and much more. Our facility is geared for volume runs of 5,000 to 500,000; lead times vary by requirements, but typically run between 3 and 4 weeks.
Our years of experience have taught us that to be successful in today’s world, just being on time is not good enough. To be of superior value, the needs of the supply chain and logistical concerns must also be satisfied. To support these ever-changing needs, our value-added inventory management offerings include the setting up of Kanbans and JIT deliveries.
As a whole, our organization adheres to the tenants and methodologies of lean manufacturing, which are supported by a robust quality program and our ISO 9001:2008 certification. The combination of process diversity, schedule flexibility, and the efficiency of a world-class quality program has brought us a large number of repeat customers.
