Challenge - A customer installed a new stopper feed system and had issues with stoppers getting stuck and shutting production lines down.

Tompkins Solutions - We helped our customer troubleshoot the system and discovered that a tightly controlled amount of silicone oil was required on the stoppers to keep them from sticking.

Final Result - Tompkins was able to add a special process to limit the amount of silicone on each stopper. Our customer's new stopper feed system runs smoothly, and without interruption.

Challenge - Ever been faced with a supplier deciding to discontinue a product line? For one of our customers, this was reality and they were left with no supplier and very short notice.

Tompkins Solution - We had all the existing tooling and fixtures sent to our facility where we quickly evaluated each tools condition and what modifications were necessary to get them back into production quickly.

Final Result - Tompkins performed all the necessary repairs, installed tooling and dies, and revalidated the parts quickly and cost effectively.
