For most projects, once your components are fabricated or machined, the next step is product assembly services. The question is, do you put the parts together yourself or move them to a third party to be constructed? Handling product assembly in house is time consuming, and you may not have the expertise to do it correctly, but transporting them to a third party can be costly, and it can be a challenge to deal with multiple vendors.
That’s why we offer a third option at Highland Machine: value added assembly services. Our team goes above and beyond supplying parts to deliver a fully put together, tested, and ready to use product.
Avoid an expensive in house team
Developing an assembly team can be a daunting task. You have to take the time and expend the resources to hire, train, and manage new employees; plus, you may need to expand or take up valuable space in your facility in order to build an assembly area. At Highland Machine, we already have an experienced team in place, the necessary space, and all the equipment required for the project. Leverage our expertise and qualified workforce to minimize your timeline and costs needed to create your sheet metal product.
One vendor for your entire job
Dealing with more than one provider for the same sheet metal project can be a headache. It forces you to have numerous points of contact, pay to move your product from vendor to vendor, and work with varying quality standards. By consolidating all the different aspects of the job at one location, the work will get done faster, you have a single point of contact, and you can better control and keep tabs on standards and overall quality.
Our value added assembly services
Instead of building an in house team or using a third party vendor, you can rely on Highland Machine for product assembly services. Here is what we offer:
- Mechanical assembly – Whether it’s a simple bracket or a complex sheet metal enclosure, we ensure precise assembly using advanced fastening methods and quality hardware to bring your components together correctly.
- Electrical assembly – Our team expertly integrates electrical elements into your sheet metal enclosures or other products, delivering a perfect fit and reliable performance, every time.
- Electronic enclosure assembly – We build custom sheet metal enclosures that shield sensitive electronics while providing easy access to components and proper airflow. We install panels, doors, and internal mounts as part of the product assembly process.
- Custom packaging – We offer packaging solutions tailored to your specific sheet metal product, delivering adequate protection during storage and shipping.
- UL inspection and certification – Once your product is complete and fully assembled, we will certify that it meets the standards for safety and compliance set by Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
