Replacement Flighting Supply (R.F.S.) has been in business in Aurora, NE since 1980. We manufacture and supply auger flighting. We have our warehouse well stocked with over 1000 sizes of flighting. With our central location in Nebraska shipping is quick and easy in all directions.
We have access to the latest technologies for the rolling of auger flighting. This can be seen by the newest innovation, SuperEdge (TM).
We handle most sizes of flighting in 5 ft. lengths, there is no minimum to purchase from any of our stock sizes. Special sizes can be ordered.
Our experienced employees take pride in their work to make a quality product for all your flighting needs.
Consulting Services in Plastics Extrusion
Over the last 40 years, I have served as a technical consultant in many ways. I don't represent any makers of materials or equipment, so my service is unbiased and independent. I've done some equipment development, such as screw and die design, but mostly I work with existing equipment, helping their users understand them better, to get the most quality and output from them. Some examples, in addition to training personnel, include:
1. Direct problem solving -- raise production rate, reduce thickness variation or scrap factor, find out why the product failed in service.
2. Materials management -- suggest quality tests for incoming resins and additives, scrap reduction and more economical re-use, propose additives to improve product performance.
3. New product development -- product testing, analysis of competition, suggesting appropriate raw materials, equipment adaptations.
4. Legal Services -- This is often called "expert witness" work, but we rarely go to court as witnesses, as most cases are settled privately without a full trial. I do not charge for initial phone conversations. Sometimes, I am asked to read materials or visit a location on a fee-for-service basis. In other cases, we sign an agreement: the lawyers can name me as an expert and I agree to keep everything confidential and not work for the other side. From then on, the work varies as all cases are different. Most of my legal work has been for defendants in patent infringement, accidents with extrusion machinery, and failure of extruded products.
If you would like to discuss any of the above services, or if there is some other way I may be of help, please call, fax or e-mail the addresses above.
