Small Arms Manufacturing

Recognizing an opportunity in the market due to a shortage in ammunition, a new client contracted the Highwood Engineering team to develop automated machinery to mass produce primers for small arms cartridges. Our team of experienced engineers utilized an eight phased product development approach to develop primer manufacturing processes and to design and manufacture machinery that meets our client’s production rates. The product produced is of the same high quality as the other major manufacturers of the same product at a comparable sales price.

Continued collaboration with this client is underway for the development of machinery to mass produce small arms cartridges, with the possibility of developing machinery for the manufacture of the complete ammunition.

Highwood’s expertise in machine design allows us to work within numerous industries and provide effective solutions for all product development.
