Our Product

Michigan Wall Panel can provide a number of advantages over conventional site framing.  The panels can be built even before the site is ready, therefore reducing start-up delays.  The rough-in stage takes much less time to complete as walls arrive at the site numbered and ready to stand up.  Material and time waste are greatly reduced in our automated facility where consistent precision panels are produced allowing us to save you both time and money.

In our Design Engineering Dept we carefully review the Architectural, Structural and Mechanical Plans for special conditions that may affect the assembly of the panels and also the field installation by our customers.  We then create a computer generated layout of the customer’s plan for the proposed structure to be panelized in our facility.
 

This information is then sent to our Virtek saw, via wireless technology, the wall plates are then marked by laser, a computer monitor tells our set up man where to place the components which are then sent to the framing table.
 

The framing table clamps the components to eliminate movement of the studs while six P.L.C. driven guns nail the top and bottom plates simultaneously.  The panel then moves to the next station where its computer calculated double top plate is installed.
 

The panels then move from the top plate station where they are mechanically squared and clamped before sheathing is fastened to the exterior walls.
 

Exterior walls can be sheeted with Densglass, exterior Gypsum, OSB and CDX plywood.
 

The Bridge with its 24 staple guns attach the sheathing.
 

The Auto Stacker removes the panel from the Bridge to create the panel stack which is now ready to be loaded on the semi trailer.
 

The metal framing table clamps the top and bottom tracks tightly to the studs holding them on layout.  The studs are then fastened to each track with a 4 head automated screw driving system which screws both sides of top and bottom track simultaneously.  Air actuated rollers then allow the panels to be moved down the line to the next station. 
 

The computer not only generates the panel designs to be built, but it also generates a panel stacking list which will reduce shipping costs and provide for the customer a sequence that will allow them to efficiently unstack and assemble the panels for a more efficient building time in the field.
