C&D (Sheet Metal) Engineering Ltd

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.

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.                              

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.                              

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.

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.

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.

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.

We produce museum quality plan chests in various standard sizes, drawer configuration and styles. Special & bespoke units can be manufactured to order. Bespoke storage solutions can be designed & manufactured to incorporate shelves, drawers, doors etc. to suit our customer's individual requirements.

CDS manufacture many different styles of high quality electrical enclosures for various clients, these are used in many different applications and have a range of test levels to suit the customer requirements.

We have a wide range of tooling for a multitude of knockout sizes and special electrical inputs to suit any requirement, enclosures range in size from 114mm x 270mm x 80mm to upwards of 1800mm x 900mm x 200mm.

These are used in many industries such as Petrochemical, oil, domestic and industrial buildings.

Computer-aided prototyping revolutionizes design by allowing us and our clients to visualize and improve on their ideas rapidly. Using software tools, our designers can build 3D models, create simulations, and test functionalities without huge material costs. This accelerates the innovation process, enabling our team to refine concepts and gather feedback, which ultimately leads to more effective and efficient solutions.

Metal work assembly refers to the process of assembling metal parts through various methods such as welding, riveting and bolting. The choice of assembly technique depends the design of the product, and the intended application.
