Get Clarity with our Manufacturing Insights
Frigate uses a combination of real-time spectroscopic analysis and high-resolution metallography to ensure the internal quality of each forged part. Right after forging, Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) and X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) are applied inline to verify alloy consistency down to trace elements. We also cut and examine cross-sections of random samples under 500x magnification to analyze grain flow, detect non-metallic inclusions, and validate the uniformity of phase distribution (such as ferrite, pearlite, bainite, etc.).
Yes. Frigate machines complex, asymmetric parts—like bogie crossbeams, coupler arms, and draft gear supports—using 5-axis CNC systems equipped with sub-micron thermal compensation software. These machines are fitted with sensors that monitor spindle temperature, ambient conditions, and part deformation in real time. When thermal changes are detected, the system adjusts the toolpath dynamically to hold critical features within ±10 microns. For highly sensitive zones, pre-stress clamping techniques and low-heat tool strategies are used to reduce residual stress.
Frigate relies on predictive quality systems, not just final inspections. During high-volume runs, every CNC cell feeds data into a centralized Statistical Process Control (SPC) engine that tracks tool wear, cutting force, and dimensional drift. When the system detects trends that exceed 3-sigma control limits, automatic tool recalibration or process pauses are triggered before any out-of-spec parts are made. Frigate also uses machine learning algorithms trained on historical defect patterns to anticipate failure modes before they occur.
Frigate designs every production workflow to align with dual certification requirements, especially for customers operating in both North America and Europe. Material selection, forging, welding, and machining are all done in accordance with both AAR M-1003 and EN 15085 Class 1 requirements. Each batch is supplied with automated documentation packages that include material certificates, weld qualifications (WPS/PQR/WPQ), dimensional inspection reports, and NDT logs. Welders and quality inspectors are trained and certified under both regulatory frameworks.
For large-scale or geometrically complex parts—such as side frames, traction brackets, or bolsters—Frigate uses robotic 3D metrology systems deployed right on the shop floor. These arms perform high-resolution surface scans using laser triangulation and structured light, capturing millions of data points per part. The scans are instantly compared to the original CAD model using AI-based geometric clustering, which flags even minor deformation or contour drift that traditional CMMs or gauges might miss. This system works in parallel with the machining cycle, reducing downtime and eliminating the need for post-process rework.
