Midwest Engineered Systems to Exhibit at 3M Automation Technology EXPO

Midwest Engineered Systems Inc. will be exhibiting at the 3M Automation Technology Expo on October 13, 2015.

Midwest Engineered Systems Inc., an innovative provider of premier custom machines and integrated systems, is proud to announce that they will be exhibiting at the 3M Automation Technology EXPO.


On Tuesday, October 13, 2015, approximately 32 suppliers will showcase their industry expertise in the areas of robotics, ultrasonic welding, design and build, build to print, feeding, and packaging. The show will be held near the 3M Center in St. Paul and will only be open to 3M employees.

The 3M Automation Technology EXPO is designed to bring awareness to technologies, suppliers, and processes for assembly automation. The show was proposed after a 3M special interest group, the Automated Assembly Engineering Technology Chapter, noticed a need for a better understanding of the marketplaces availability for this industry.

Midwest Engineered Systems will be displaying its vast capabilities in automated assembly lines, packaging systems, palletizing/depalletizing, and full production line solutions.

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.
