Engineering Your Drum
Utilizing the most advanced design and engineering tools available.
Leveraging the most advanced computer software available, our expert designers and engineers will provide 3-D renderings of your customized drums. With the added capability to provide comprehensive finite element analysis (FEA), our engineering team can apply real world simulations that accurately identify load, stress and deflection points before starting the fabrication and machining process.

Quality Control
“To us, quality assurance is a process, not an event.”
Each stage of the design and manufacturing process requires constant quality management and process control. We believe a quality product is a safe product; that is why we are dedicated to using step-to-step monitoring protocols to ensure every custom hoist drum is free of defects and safe for long-term operation.
K&N is committed to Total Quality Management and we are constantly working to improve our processes. Even our best quality control practices are regularly evaluated with changes made as needed to increase safety, accuracy and efficiency. This continual improvement philosophy is what guarantees your cable drum will meet or exceed the highest industrial manufacturing standards.
