What does Kannon Manufacturing specialize in?+
Kannon is a manufacturing partner that specializes in welding, assembly and machining with full fabrication capabilities. Welding is first, then assembly, then machining. The work is long-term repeating programs, not one-off job-shop traffic.
Where is Kannon Manufacturing located?+
Our primary shop is at 5129 Vesta Farley Rd, Fort Worth, TX 76119. Welding, assembly, and machining run across two Fort Worth locations totaling more than 100,000 square feet. Call 817-563-1251.
What weld qualifications does Kannon hold?+
The shop holds AWS D1.1, AWS D1.3, 80K, and 100K material weld qualifications. Additional weld certifications are available upon request.
What industries does Kannon support?+
Kannon builds for heavy equipment manufacturing, boom trucks, aerial lift platforms, trailers, oil and gas, data centers, power engines, and warehouse automation. Programs run from two Fort Worth shops.
Is Kannon ISO certified?+
Kannon operates a thorough, ISO-compliant quality system built around drawing review, in-process and final inspection, traceability, and AWS D1.1, D1.3, 80K, and 100K weld qualifications. We can share our quality documentation for your program.
Do you offer powder coating or painting?+
Kannon coordinates powder coating, paint, and e-coating through outside finishing partners, so customers get finished parts with one point of contact.
What goes in a quote request?+
Drawings, materials, quantities or annual volume, weld certifications if any, and the date you need parts. A sketch or photo works if that is what you have.
Do you take short runs?+
Short runs are fine when they fit the floor. The work we want is repeating programs — long-term, annual-volume welding, assembly, and machining partnerships, not one-off job-shop traffic.
What does a repeating production program look like?+
The same weldments, assemblies, or machined parts running year over year with one project owner — from the first unit through the annual volume. Welding is first, then assembly, then machining. That is the partnership we build toward.
Can Kannon build full assemblies?+
Yes. Cutting, machining, forming, welding, tube bending, rolling, inspection, and assembly run in-house across two Fort Worth buildings.
Looking for a repeating production program?
Short runs are fine when they fit the floor. Send drawings, materials, annual volume, weld qualifications, and timing for a long-term welding, assembly, and machining partnership.
