Contract manufacturing services provide parts and equipment on behalf of original equipment manufacturers (OEM). The design and brand name remain the property of the OEM. Contract manufacturing may involve a complete range of services from design and prototyping to final production, assembly, and quality assurance for complete products.
Plastic fabrication services provide custom machining, bending, forming and assembly of plastic parts. Companies may use any of several types of joining techniques in assembly such as fasteners, welding and gluing.
Rapid prototyping automates the fabrication of a prototype part from a three-dimensional (3-D) CAD drawing. These physical models convey more complete information about the product earlier in the development cycle.
Research and development services perform original investigation to gain new knowledge (research) and/or apply research findings to create or improve products and processes (development).
Welding and fabrication services weld and fabricate a variety of materials. They may also perform services such as machining, CAD support, and field welding.
