Coverking
was founded in Southern California by an Industrial and Electrical Engineer who
worked in Southern California's Aerospace Defense industry. The experience and
knowledge acquired over decades of work on the most sophisticated defense
weapons systems was applied to the relatively backward industry of cut-and-sew
custom automotive accessories.
Advanced CAD/CAM systems which were designed for aerospace use were purchased
for making Custom Dash Covers. Overkill, perhaps, but it brought the Dash Cover
market (which was content with production times of 30 days) quite a jump in
business when Coverking began supplying a custom, one-off product in 1 day. The
accuracy and precision of the CAD and CAM systems lead to previously
unattainable levels of pattern quality, and the automation created efficiencies
which allowed Coverking to produce better fitting product, in a fraction of the
time, for less money that the competitors of the day.
