Case Study: Hitch Redesign for Agriculture Equipment

Manufacturing Challenge
Our customer had a unique design for hitching their tillage implement to the industry tractors that incorporated a patented Articulate Ball Hitch design. However, they could not find a unique design to suit their needs in the available market.
Our Customized Solution
Our supplying partner for the Articulated Ball Hitch was willing to modify the existing vertical-orientated design and tooling to a custom horizontal design for the customer. Our engineers worked with the customer and implemented a design change with custom tooling to produce a horizontal mount hitch with an Articulated Ball feature that met their unique requirements.
The design is such a success we are manufacturing similar components for other customers.
