FOD Cases

Foreign Object Damage/Debris Control (FOD) cases are critical instruments for the military, aviation and other industries where tool control is essential. These tool bags are vital to the successful function of places like airfields and shipyards where an engine, plane, ship or other vessel can be severely damaged or even rendered inoperable by debris or tools that have been inadvertently left behind. There’s no room for error in this important service work and these bags are the ideal reinforcement system for military and aviation protocol on the tarmac, in the field, at sea or on the pier.

The FOD series of soft sewn bags and clear-top inserts not only provide that all-important tool control but also reduce work time by offering an efficient system for inventory. The tool cases—which have outer pockets for quick collection of FOD—are constructed with tough ballistic nylon, a 1680 denier material, and feature reflective tape built into the webbing and self-healing zippers (that won’t rust like their metal counterparts). Rubber feet and skid-proof bottoms provide added stability for upright case positioning.

With exception of the MINI FOD (EC-7686) and the FOD 2B (EC-7333), both of which feature two built-in clear pallets, the empty FOD sewn tool cases are engineered for pairing with optional tool control pallet pouches (EC-6800). (Pallet capacity is contingent on the FOD case size.) These inserts are made for foam silhouettes that provide easy access to tools and efficient inventory visualization. They are constructed with a clear, heavy-duty vinyl top and—like the tool cases that house them—offer self-healing zippers with reflective material for safe, easy location.

Case Study:Dental Display Case

Dental Display Case
The Challenge
Representatives from a well-respected dental company found Source’s exhibit at an industry trade show. They were looking to develop an updated, dynamic and sophisticated presentation for their traditional instrumentation. The innovative tools and accessories they brought to the exhibition had been presented on a sheath of black velvet draped over a flat surface; the display didn’t make the impact they were aiming for, nor did it highlight the time-honored company’s achievements.

The Response
Considering the client’s aesthetic and functional needs, we recommended a modular system of custom wood cases outfitted with foam inserts to highlight their products’ style and diversity. Cases By Source’s wood cases have a sophisticated and polished look that provides an excellent solution for a wide range of products. The cases not only make an elegant, reusable presentation, but also offer organization and protection. Custom interiors are fabricated from wood, plastic, fabric or foam. Logos can be silk screened or laser burned, and interiors can be customized from routed wood or die-cut foam, or lined with satin or velvet.

The Solution
The client sent us tools for measurement and a set of marked photographs and layout instructions to ensure the most professionally sensible arrangement in the case’s interior. The tools were separated into three categories—slow, high speed, and accessories— each of which needed its own case. We modeled the solutions in our 3-D CAD design software, and then manufactured a series of maple wood cases with a cherry stain and lacquered finish. The top edge of the case was routed for a lift-off lid that fits into the recess, and the interior was customized with a die-cut cross-linked foam insert. Each cavity was layered to a carefully measured height so all components would rest on the same level, and we also added holes in the bottom for dowels, enabling the client to tilt the displays for better viewing angles and a more dynamic presentation.
