Our Fabrication Solutions
Precision Fabrication for Customized Solutions
Expert fabrication services for precision and efficiency. We specialize in transforming raw materials into high-quality, customized components through advanced techniques and state-of-the-art equipment. Our skilled team ensures meticulous attention to detail, from initial design to final production, delivering robust solutions tailored to your specific needs.
Welding
Our welders possess the expertise to execute various types of welds, including TIG/ GTAW, GMAW/MIG, and stick as well as sanitary welds in food-grade sanitary pipe installations. A select group of skilled welders are certified by Arc Tech for SMAW DCEP Manual Welding. From precise welds on intricate parts to robust joints for heavy-duty machinery, they manage a wide range of tasks. We construct a variety of products aside from our Custom Automated Machinery such as conveyors, and platforms, and overhead rail to be able to seamlessly integrate into an existing facility. Each piece is tailor-made to suit your needs. Our experienced crew is available for onsite welding, fabrication, and equipment installation.
Water Jet
Our cutting capabilities extend to materials as large as 5 ' x 10' and 6" thick! Our water jet system employs a high-pressure pump to generate a pressurized stream of water. This stream mixes with abrasive materials like garnet, passing through a nozzle to create a coherent flow of abrasive particles moving at high speed. From intricate designs to large-scale parts, we cut materials such as steel, aluminum, granite, and rubber with precision. Originally acquired to meet specific shop needs, our exploration and experimentation with this machine have revealed countless applications and allowed us to produce a wide range of products, including custom metal signs.
Laser Engraving
Unlock the power of precision and personalization with our laser engraving services. Our state-of-the-art laser engraving technology ensures unparalleled quality and detail. From intricate designs to crisp text and logos, we transform your ideas into enduring impressions. Elevate your brand and leave a lasting mark with our expert laser engraving services.
Metal Finishing
Metal finishing enhances metal properties and offers key benefits that improve the durability, appearance, and ease of maintenance of metal products. By smoothing the surface, it is easier to clean and makes it more resistant to wear, corrosion, rust, and abrasion, which can help extend the lifespan. We offer polishing and dustless media blasting to help with your metal preservation.
Brake and Shear
We offer precision and efficiency in every bend and cut, tailored to your specific requirements. These versatile machines are used in many different industries and perform tasks such as; sheet metal bending and cutting, creating structural components such as beams and supports, fabricating custom machines parts, and custom projects from stainless steel counter tops to specialized industrial equipment.
