From design to delivery, find out how we maintain the highest standards in our production work.
Cutting-Edge Equipment to Maximize Efficiency
Our advanced equipment allows us to deliver precise, consistent, and cost-effective metal fabrication at production scale. Key assets in our shop include CNC lasers and press brakes.
CNC Lasers
Laser cutting strikes the perfect balance between speed and accuracy, offering the versatility to handle a range of materials and thicknesses. Unlike slower methods like waterjet cutting or less precise plasma cutting, our CNC lasers help keep production efficient and cost-effective for you.
CNC Press Brakes
Our CNC press brakes ensure accurate and repeatable bends, critical to consistency within large production runs. To properly leverage these tools, a shop needs expert CAD modeling services to adjust existing customer drawings when necessary to create precision flat patterns. We have also developed K factors specific to our equipment, ensuring accuracy across various material thicknesses. Many shops rely on generic K factors, which limits accuracy as materials reach ¼” or more in thickness.
Accelerate Production With Our Expert Team and Streamlined Processes
While cutting-edge equipment is the foundation of our production capabilities, our skilled personnel truly set us apart. Our operators are experts in programming our machinery for maximum efficiency, leveraging nesting software to keep costs down by utilizing material to its fullest. We offer end-to-end fabrication solutions, with expertise that spans the entire production process:
Expert Welders
Welding is often a time-consuming aspect of a sheet metal project, but our talented welders help to prevent a bottleneck. Our welding services incorporate extensive fixturing to minimize distortion and reduce setup times between parts, ensuring consistency across large production runs. This approach significantly reduces production time and costs, particularly for complex or repeated welds.
In-House Polishing
To maintain control over quality and lead times, we offer in-house polishing capabilities. By managing the polishing ourselves, we maintain strict quality control over the entire production process, significantly reducing turnaround times while remaining flexible to quickly address any issues that may arise.
Trusted Partner Network
Over our 25 years in sheet metal fabrication, we've built a large network of partnerships to ensure customers have access to everything their project requires. We collaborate with trusted powder coating specialists to offer a wide range of finishing options, and we've established relationships with several high-quality machine shops for projects requiring additional machining. Our network of partners allows us to optimize scheduling and quickly deliver complete solutions.
Design Expertise to Prevent Production Delays
Our design expertise and optimization services play a crucial role in ensuring that your components are optimized for efficiency, quality, and cost-effectiveness in production.
Our team of experienced designers reviews customer designs for manufacturability. Common issues that may slow production include tight tolerances or challenging bend radiuses. Our designers discuss feature changes with clients, ensuring they're optimized for rapid production without compromising the part's functionality or integrity.
