Power Engines
Skids, guards, mounts, and frames for power-engine OEM programs.
Power-engine work here is production welding first — then assembly, then machining — on skids, guards, mounts, and structural frames in Fort Worth and DFW. Kannon does not build engines. We quote repeating OEM programs around the engine package, not one-off job-shop work.
Power engine frames
Powder-coated structural steel frames for power-engine programs — production weldment proof from the Fort Worth shops. Kannon fabricates the frame, not the engine.
Fabrication around the engine, not the engine
Power-engine fabrication at Kannon is steel work around the package: production welding, then assembly, then the machining that locates the weldment. Skids, guards, mounts, and structural frames run on the same Fort Worth floor. Kannon does not build engines. Buyers see weld qualifications, bay and robot counts, and inspection before a plant visit — the same evidence used to qualify a repeating manufacturing partner.
Skids, guards, mounts, and frames
RFQs we can run look like engine skids, guards, mounts, and structural frames — cut, formed, welded, and machined in-house. Shop-floor proof for this market is the Power engine frames photo on this page and on the work gallery. That build is production welding evidence. Kannon fabricates the frame, not the engine.
Repeating power-engine programs in Fort Worth
Power-engine manufacturing here is partnership work, not a one-off job shop. The first skid, guard, or frame sets the fixture, weld, and inspection sequence so the next units run the same way for Dallas–Fort Worth and national OEM releases. Fort Worth capacity is 30 manual MIG/TIG bays and 3 OTC welding robots (including a 16 ft slider). Send drawings, materials, volume, and timing when you are ready to qualify the shop.
What to send in a power-engine RFQ
Drawings or a model, material and weld spec, annual or release volume, and the date the first units have to ship. Call out fixture or inspection requirements if they are already set. Structural steel programs are quoted against AWS D1.1, D1.3, 80K, and 100K where those apply. We will tell you if the work fits the floor.
Welding, assembly, fabrication, and frame proof
Production welding
Robotic and manual welding is the primary capacity behind power-engine skids and frames — 30 manual MIG/TIG bays and 3 OTC welding robots (including a 16 ft slider).

How Kannon runs power-engine production
Welding-first power-engine fabrication: 30 manual MIG/TIG bays and 3 OTC welding robots (including a 16 ft slider)
In-house assembly and CNC for skids, guards, mounts, and structural frames
AWS D1.1, D1.3, 80K, and 100K weld qualifications for structural steel
The first unit sets the fixture, weld, and inspection sequence so the next run matches
