In the manufacturing and fabrication sector, companies get to choose where they make their products. Some choose to outsource, while many consider manufacturing products in-house. We take pride in making our products because we aim at delivering the most superior form of services to all our clients. In-house products and abilities add to our operational efficiency which has made us one of the leading medium voltage switchgear & low voltage controls manufacturers in the industrial sector. We have a team of amazing talent and expertise on board with us and equipment that helps our services be cost-effective and reliable. This would not have been possible by outsourcing or depending on third-party contract services.
Our In-House Services And Abilities
Instrumental And Electrical
We have an experienced team of professionals who have a wide area of expertise in the fields of common industry requirements and manufacturer installations. Based on our clients’ project requirements, our experienced team will deliver an outcome beyond expectations. Be it the tube bending and installation processes for Parker, Swagelok, and other tubings, safe and certified electric installations, or work associated with marine shipboard cables- we have it all!
Sheet Metal Fabrication
Sheet metal fabrication is the process of converting a metal sheet into various metal structures. This process requires extensive knowledge and expertise, which we have. Sheet metal fabrication is often required in many industrial sectors. So, we offer custom and smart solutions to sheet metal fabrication.
Structural Fabrication
We have the best in-house ability to provide comprehensive engineering designs for our clients’ various industrial structures. We specialize in the fabrication of both heavy and oversized structures, and our in-house expert team will be happy to assist in your project requirements.
CNC Machining
CNC Machines or numerical control machines are a vital requirement for many industries. We offer a range of CNC milling and turning services that will be customized to suit your industrial and business preferences. Our CNC machining services include a wide range of options and technological solutions. Modern CNC machining should be productive, flexible, and easy to operate and we deliver each one of them.
Custom Enclosures
Our in-house abilities also include the production and development of custom stainless steel, aluminum, and power coated steel enclosures. Our sheet metal fabrication capabilities allow us to build custom sized Switchgear Enclosures, Control Panel Enclosures, Switchboard Enclosures, & various busway systems for transformer connection.
Welding
We employ certified welders and have certified welding procedures. This helps ensure quality metal fabrication. During the welding process, our team of welders will comply with all the regulations and will deliver an output that is synonymous and reliable. Our welders provide the best quality structural steel & sheet metal fabrication for both light and heavy-duty projects. We use advanced welding technology to deliver turnkey solutions- be it for making repairs, fabricating switchracks, skids, low voltage electrical equipment enclosures, and medium voltage enclosures.
Powder Coating
Powder coating as we all know is an advanced method of applying a heavy duty and a protective finish to any kind of metal. Powder coating increases the life span of industrial equipment and steelwork and makes them more durable. Standard coating processes may not do the job for you. Hence as part of our in-house abilities, we provide advanced powder coating services that will give your equipment resistance from corrosion and abrasion, and a uniform surface finish.
Testing Electrical Equipment
Frequent testing of your electrical equipment is crucial to ensure the safety of your industrial plant or facility. We provide testing services for short circuit breakers, switch gears, transformers, motors, and all other electrical equipment. Testing of electrical equipment helps us to analyse their functionality and avoid failures and malfunctions. We use a wide range of testing techniques and make a proper diagnosis of the root cause of the faulty electric equipment. Spike can test voltages up to 38kV.
Why In-House Abilities Reduce Risks
In-house manufacturing is better than outsourcing for a variety of reasons. Consider the following:
- Flexibility: There is a broad scope to change the product and be flexible to suit the clients’ requirements. If we outsource and the product needs a last-minute change, the implementation will be time-consuming and challenging. Our in-house abilities will ensure you of all the flexibility you will need.
- Enhanced Quality: We can control the quality of the product in a better way with in-house production. Our team will be constantly keeping track of the product and also of all the design and installation processes related to it.
- Lower Management Costs: We believe in offering cost-effective industrial solutions to our clients. Foreign outsourcing will cost you more whereas in-house services will offer you the same tasks and management at an affordable price. Your company will be in less overhead while building the product.
- Control Of Production: Our in-house abilities will ensure that you have complete control over the product output. Additionally, by utilizing resource planning, you get to have a production spike by increasing the labor and required equipment to get the project done. Outsourcing will make all of these complications.
Our In-House abilities make us the best choice for industrial solutions. So, get in touch with us soon and make us a part of your upcoming project.
