Full Speed Ahead

2011 was a year filled with success and innovation for TH Industries and Full Speed Ahead (FSA). We aimed high, and achieved excellent results. Now we are ready to challenge again in 2012. We move forward with a determined spirit of competition, and a desire to deliver the best possible components to our customers.

At the end of 2009 TH industries celebrated the opening of a new, modern headquarters and factory. It features a total area of 11,620 square meters with four floors dedicated to manufacturing and another building with fours floors for offices and meeting rooms – making it one of central Taiwan’s largest and most efficient factories.

The new campus represents more than our company’s growth and commitment to the cycling industry, it allows us to more than double our manufacturing capacity and incorporates the very latest technology. We have increased automated manufacturing, testing and carbon production capacity, all of which allows us to offer the best quality and in-depth quality control for all our products. Our factory contains cutting-edge machineries and a perfect production chain to create the highest quality components with enhanced time to market, quality control, energy conservation and waste management.

For 2012, we have further enhanced our manufacturing ability, with the addition of hot press carbon rim molding machines, and 5 axis high-speed CNC machines. The hot press rim molding facility allows us to ramp up our capacity of carbon rims, with our perfected process, which produces picture perfect rims directly from the mold. These rims require no post-production cosmetic treatment, such as putty, or clear coating. The surface is perfect, and the rims can be drilled, directly from the mold.

The 5-axis CNC machine allows for many more processes to be done with one fixturing. This machine was added to enhance our ability to produce hubs in-house, for the growing FSA and Vision wheel ranges. FSA and Vision hubs feature the highest precision in the industry, and are assembled at our new wheel assembly facility.
