Who you'll be working with

Jacob Stock
Founder and President

Jacob Stock, Manufacturing Engineer, has spent 25+ years solving complex automation challenges for Fortune 500 manufacturers throughout the United States. His expertise spans concept development, system engineering, and installation of advanced manufacturing systems.

Major clients include:

  • Boeing and Lockheed Martin (aerospace and defense)
  • Caterpillar and John Deere (heavy equipment)
  • Ford, GM and Chrysler (automotive)
  • Mercury Marine and Polaris (marine and recreational)
  • GE Aviation, Kraft and Baker Hughes

He takes on the applications that don't have an off-the-shelf answer.

At M6 that range has kept going. The team has put equipment on floors in aerospace and space, semiconductor and electronics, medical and dental devices, food and beverage, consumer products, automotive and EV, metals and foundry work, building products, lumber, and irrigation.

In the last two years we've delivered a lot of projects across the Northwest, at every size from a single component to a full cell. A sample of the range:

  • Controls upgrades and PLC retrofits on aging lines
  • Pick-and-place and machine-tending cells
  • Flexible feeding with vision, including multi-part systems
  • Conveyor systems, from food lines to lumber grading to lab benches
  • Custom sensing systems built from scratch
  • Rotary indexing and linear transfer
  • Presses, forming, and two-hand safety stations
  • Vacuum tooling and end-of-arm tooling
  • Stackers and material handling upgrades
  • Safety light curtains, fencing, and guarding to the risk assessment
  • Panel builds, wiring, and as-built documentation

We also supply the resource itself, so a good share of our work is an engineer on site for a week or a month when your own team is stretched.

The projects change from job to job, and the questions stay about the same. What the cycle time has to be, where the real constraint is, and what happens when it goes down.

How we work

We represent sixteen technology lines, and a few of them are what we get called about most. Parts feeding, presses and forming, screwdriving, robots and mobile robots, grippers and vacuum tooling, conveying, and the sensing, safety, and controls around a cell. Tell us about the project, the rate you need, and where it is constrained, and we size the equipment to it.

 

Most of that work sits alongside somebody else's build. A plant automating one step at a time with its own maintenance and engineering people, or an integrator who needs the right feeder and a straight answer about it. We come in at the equipment and the engineering around it, and when a project runs bigger than that we can hand it to an integrator who builds at that scale. Whoever builds the machine, if it runs our equipment we support it.

 

We would rather talk you out of the wrong machine than sell it to you. Automate the step that is actually the constraint, prove it on your own project before you spend anything, and keep the first change small enough that it pays for itself.

What customers say

Jacob is a unique resource as a supplier as he can visualize your concepts while on the phone and speak to them intelligently. I often find many people require images on a screen to communicate effectively. This ability is invaluable during the early stages of project development.
