Products / Services

Powder coating

Products are finished in our automated powder coating paint plant where epoxy powder is applied to all surfaces to give a robust wear resistant finish. Our final assembly area is fully equipped to finish/pack the products/goods ready for despatch.

                                                                    

Metal Forming

The RAS bending centres produce a finished component automatically. These machines produce up, down, radius and partial bends all to the highest accuracy. With laser technology to measure each blank, the panels are produced with unerring constancy. Automatic tool changing enables us to provide a huge variation of bends to suit a multitude of applications. We have 10 CNC controlled press brakes bending upto 3m long including the latest Amada HFE, 7 Axis press brake.                              

Welding Services

We have a full range of welding facilities. These include TIG - MIG - Spot welding and cleaning and polishing in both mild and stainless steel, using jigs to maintain high accuracy. We  have a Panasonic robot welding cell, producing high quality stainless steel enclosures which incoporates  an automatic rotating table to speed up welding and loading times.                              

Sheetmetal Punching

CD Sheetmetal have the latest Amada punching cell capable of processing 6 ton of material automatically with load and unload (part stacking and scrap removal) with speeds of up to 860 hits per minute and this machine has a 58 station turret. We also have 3 CNC controlled “stand alone” punching machines.

Office Furniture

We design and manufacture an extensive range of quality office furniture, both standard and bespoke units, comprising of double door cupboards, side opening tambours, side filers and personal lockers. These products have been supplied to office dealers and blue chip companies throughout the UK.                

All units are fully welded for a strong construction and have self levellers fitted, finished in epoxy paint for a strong durable finish.

These can all be supplied with a range of internal fitments.

Museum Quality Cabinets & Storage Solutions

We  produce a range of Museum quality cabinets and storage for all uses, including Herbarium, Entomology and Geology sample storage.

These comprise units which are fully welded and sealed against the ingress of dust and pests such as museum beetle, using inert seals such as plastizote, and finished in high quality epoxy powder paint.

We also design innovative bespoke storage solutions to meet our customer’s requirements.

Deck Panels

With the flexible machinery we have, we can manufacture any size or style of deck panel very competitively.

With the wealth of experience in manufacturing racking solutions we will have a solution for you, this includes pallet support bars, dividers, rack protectors etc.
