Fabrication and Assembly
Atlas Tool Works, Inc. can fabricate nearly any type of precision sheet metal component using a variety of in house manufacturing technologies. Sheet metal includes flat and formed metal parts, multi-piece welded or mechanically fastened assemblies, housings, doors, panels, and card cages for your most demanding applications. Atlas uses many different materials in our fabrication department, and oftentimes assemblies include both metals and plastics.
Based on the design of your part, the material you choose and the quantity you need, our in-house design, engineering, tooling, and prototyping departments determine the most cost-effective production strategy. We draw on Atlas’ years of fabrication experience, its highly qualified vendor network, and its wide range of capabilities and equipment including:
- Laser Cutting
- Water jet Cutting
- CNC Turret Stamping
- Traditional Punch Press Stamping
- Press Brake Forming
- Roll Forming
- Drilling, Tapping and Countersinking / Counter boring
- Spot Welding
- Riveting
- MIG & TIG Welding
- Gluing & Structural Adhesives
- Electro-pneumatic Assembly
- Electronic Assembly & Testing
- Mechanical Assembly & Testing
- Screw/Nut & Bolt Assembly
- EMI Gasket & Label Installation
- Secondary operations finishing and deburring
Equipment
- 2 Turret presses
- 11 Precision CNC press brakes
- 4 Spot welders
- 5 Arc welders
- 4 Hardware insertion presses
- 7 Riveting machines
- 22 Punch presses
- 6 Lasers
- 2 Water Jet
- 4 Wire EDM’s
- Fully equipped tooling department
When necessary, we can follow a unique procedure, fabricating components in a centralized area then assembling them in remote customer specific locations. Separating the two operations helps control production costs and reduces delivery time, especially for those highly complex assemblies that are our specialty.
Atlas is experienced with JIT and Kanban systems and will work with you to provide innovative options to further reduce lead times while still minimizing your exposure to demand fluctuations.
