Manufacturing in America
Jaypro Sports is committed to the “Made in America”
philosophy and has been manufacturing Institutional Sports Equipment from our
Waterford Connecticut facility since 1953.
As part of our manufacturing commitment to
maintain our competitive advantage and cost effectiveness in the United States
we continue to invest heavily in machinery and equipment to maintain the most
state of the art manufacturing facility in our industry.
Included in our philosophy is our commitment to have Jaypro do its part
to keep our planet clean and safe for our children’s future by minimizing our
environmental impact.
Below we would like to share with some of over two million
dollars in investments Jaypro Sports has made in our manufacturing facility
during the past two years.
See how we are minimizing our global impact with our
110,000 square foot rooftop Advanced Energy solar panel system by logging on to
Inverter Monitoring Tool
Our new State of the art Powder Coating and Wash System
design specially for our unique mix of products.
No one in our industry can color finish and protect your outdoor sports
equipment as effectively as Jaypro Sports.
Environment Friendly utilizes 25% less energy to run than
standard powder coating systems with zero environmental impact.
So advanced we are coating for high end automotive part
manufacturers, electrical companies, custom machine shops and yes competitors.
The Edge-Max plasma-cutting table is equipped with the
HP$260XD plasma torch, capable of operating with 260 amps of current at speeds
of greater than 50 inches per minute.
The torch is controlled by a 2-axis CNC (Computer Numerical Control)
servomechanism with a touch screen graphical user interface (GUI), which allows
it to a) cut complicated geometries that would be impossible to do manually and
b) import patterns directly from CAD (design/engineering software).
This all means repeatable, error free translation from computer models to
fabricated parts with an accuracy of ±0.010”
at unprecedented levels of throughput (both in terms of volume and efficiency),
all at the press of a button!
Big picture, all these features and capabilities of the
Edge-Max allow Jaypro to:
1.
Improve part quality
2.
Improve part performance
3.
Improve part aesthetics
4.
Decrease part cost
In house
break press guarantees parts are made on time and to specification without the
added cost.
