Discover how Decked Out Factory eliminated production bottlenecks and increased output with the MultiCam Apex3R Evo

Decked Out Factory is a U.S.-based EVA foam manufacturer producing 100% custom parts: cooler tops, truck steps, off-road and side-by-side accessories, Jeep accessories, laptop pads, and dog mats. As custom orders grew, the company's aging equipment became the constraint standing between the shop floor and the volume its customers were asking for.

A workflow held together by guesswork

Before the Apex3R Evo, Decked Out Factory ran production on two older machines, with no reliable path to parts or manufacturer support. Every rush order or one-off custom piece added risk instead of routine. "Literally, before the Apex3R Evo, it was hell. "- Ashley Kirchner, Owner, Decked Out Factory.
Proximity to support was a deciding factor in what came next: having a supplier based in the U.S., with fast access to parts and shipping, was non-negotiable going into the purchase.

To have someone right here in the U.S., not that far away from us. Shipping is very quick if we need anything."

The MultiCam Apex3R Evo: automatic tool changing changes everything

For Decked Out Factory, automatic tool changing was the single biggest reason to upgrade. The difference against their older equipment wasn't incremental, it was transformative.

The ability to have the automatic tool changing compared to our older machines that we have is insane.

Speed and cut quality closed the case. The shop can now fit fast, single-unit rush orders directly into the schedule. Work that used to compete for machine time now runs alongside standard production.

Less downtime, less stress, a team ready to grow

The impact showed up immediately, not just in output, but in how the team felt about coming to work. Stress tied to the two older machines dropped sharply once the Apex3R Evo was running. The learning curve was the one thing Asha expected to be a problem. It wasn't: training took about a week or two, and the team now feels comfortable bringing on new people.
