Re: Online 80/20 Supplier?

Local Distributors design the product for the client, then they send all the CAD files to 8020 (using an 8020 program inside of CAD - called Auto Quoter). 8020 then cuts, packages all hardware needed, and anything else that is needed and then ships the product to the customer directly where they do the final assembly. However, 8020 can also ship to the distributor and they will assemble the product for the client.

Thanks. I am using two identical frames made of 80/20 to connect to each other, only allowing linear motion for a linear track system. I've done the same thing before, only with spare 80/20 lying around the shop. I've never actually went out and ordered it.

How long does it take for the pieces to be manufactured and arrive?

Re: Online 80/20 Supplier?

Our local distributor in Toledo, OH can submit a design in the morning and have the parts within 2-3 business days (or less).

Re: On line 80/20 Supplier?

If ordering 8020 or other metal online, Be aware of shipping costs. If you order a piece that with packaging exceeds 96'', I believe, UPS will kill you with shipping charges. Mc Master does sell extrusions but i don't believe they are 80/20.
