Most importantly, we know exactly what it takes to consistently deliver sheet metal parts on tight deadlines:
- Investing in the right software to get orders onto the shop floor faster. Our secure quoting platform enables us to provide fast and accurate quoting so we can get started on your order quickly. Additionally, our custom ERP technology uses artificial intelligence to track material inventory and manage operational schedules for optimal efficiency.

Training everyone to understand new machines and workflows not only boosts our company’s value, but it also gives our employees a sense of fulfillment and achievement.
- Awesome laser capabilities.
A typical CO2 laser can cut .059″ aluminum or steel at just 60 inches per minute. But our new AMADA 3kW ENSIS 3015 RI Fiber Laser can cut these same materials at an impressive 866 inches per minute! This capability empowers us to complete production parts faster than ever before.

We never sacrifice quality for speed. Our in-house Timesavers machine allows us to sand, grind, and debur your flat parts quickly and effectively. Premium operations are also available to round and smooth edges.
- Stocking common materials at our warehouse.
Don’t worry about sourcing your own material. We’ve already anticipated your needs and stocked up on the most popular gauges for steel (including stainless and galvanized) and aluminum. If for any reason we don’t have the material you need in-house, we’ll find it for you as quickly as possible.
