Warehouse Automation
Welded frames, guards, and maintenance carts for warehouse automation OEMs.
Warehouse automation work here is production welding first — then assembly, then machining — on frames, guards, aluminum bridges, and maintenance carts in Fort Worth and DFW. We quote repeating OEM programs, not one-off job-shop work.

Aluminum bridges
Fabricated aluminum bridge structures staged on a pallet — shop-floor welding and fabrication proof for warehouse automation OEM programs.

Maintenance Carts
Maintenance Carts — welded shop-floor carts built as repeating warehouse automation hardware, not a one-off job-shop sample.
Fabricated frames for warehouse automation OEMs
Warehouse automation fabrication at Kannon is steel and aluminum work: production welding, then assembly, then the machining that locates the weldment. Frames, guards, bridges, and cart structures run on the same Fort Worth floor. Buyers see weld qualifications, bay and robot counts, and inspection before a plant visit — the same evidence used to qualify a repeating manufacturing partner.
Guards, bridges, and maintenance carts
RFQs we can run look like welded frames, guards, aluminum bridges, and maintenance carts — cut, formed, welded, and fit up in-house. Shop-floor proof for this market is the aluminum bridge and maintenance cart photos on this page and on the work gallery. Those builds are production welding evidence for a repeating program.
Repeating automation programs in Fort Worth
Warehouse automation manufacturing here is partnership work, not a one-off job shop. The first frame, guard, or cart 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 warehouse automation 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.
