At Munro we all know the criticality of joints in design. When a
joint can not be eliminated through design, special attention needs to be paid
to its application and manufacturing processes. Munro has been a world leader in
fastening and joint technology since 1988. To understand how all variables of a
joint affect its functionality and manufacture, it is important to apply the
correct validation and testing to your design. That’s why we have chosen to work
with ArchetypeJoint as a virtual partner in the application development of our
customers’ joints. ArchetypeJoint specializes in joint development and testing
and works with the latest and most advanced technology. For more information
