The Tri Tool Experience

We listen to your needs and to collaborate with your team to fully understand, and conquer, the challenges you face.

We ask about specialty alloys, hardness, coatings and cladding that may be relevant for your application.  

We will also ask about space constraints and throughput needs. We will ask about business goals and targets.  

By the end of our Collaborate phase, we understand what is going to make you a success for your customer. 

Innovation is at the core of every MissionBuilt project.  The Tri Tool Team takes the technical information about your application and goes to work.  

We evaluate your technical goals with your business goals and work with you to develop a conceptual design.  

We will perform calculations, evaluate material types, measure weight, and create electrical schematics to create your solution.

With the design complete, we will begin the build.  

Our team is transparent about your solution’s progress as we accelerate through the production process.

Most production will be completed in our Manufacturing Center of Excellence located in northern California.

During the project we continue to partner with you to address any additional scope as well as keep you informed of the project.

Customers are invited to participate in our Factory Acceptance Testing in person or through a video conference. 

Our modular equipment configurations provide for ease of installation and demobilization.

We provide innovative solutions for Ultra-Confined Spaces using Advanced internal line-up clamps for pipe, compliant machine work holding such as vacuum pads, 3D printed soft pads and custom fit contact parts.  

We will ship the solution from California directly to your project site. 

Always at your side, our team remains your partner through the entire lifecycle of your MissionBuilt solution.

As your application evolves, we work with you to develop modernizations.

We offer training for your personnel on equipment or will send our experienced Field Services team to operate on your behalf.

We continue to collaborate and begin the process again.
