TEMPERATURE-
SETTING KNOB


 

K&B was recently approached by an appliance manufacturer that required a unique temperature-setting knob for use on commercial oven models.

THE
PROBLEM


Due to the complex nature of its design, the temperature selection knob required a number of different manufacturing processes, including both molding and ultrasonic welding.

Few manufacturers can offer the range of processes this knob required, especially at a cost-effective rate. The client approached K&B because of our renowned turnkey manufacturing abilities.

We offered every capability the client required, offering them a true one-stop solution for their knob.
