Find Help for the Work in Front of You.
A part you cannot buy anymore
Start with the existing part, a photo, or a drawing. We review the material, dimensions, and fit needed to make a fabricated replacement.
A first build or a small batch
Bring prototypes, pilot builds, and bridge quantities through the cutting, forming, welding, and finishing operations the part needs.
An assembly with several operations
Coordinate fabricated components, weldments, finish, hardware, and assembly in one manufacturing review.
More work than your shop can handle
Define the backlog or repeat release you need help with. We review the process scope, quantities, and required delivery window.
Real fabrication from the Ahner shop
Precision Sheet Metal. Cut and formed components for a first build or repeat release.
Heavy Fabrication. Large weldments and tanks, with handling and delivery considered.
Turnkey Systems. Fabricated structures, components, and complete assemblies.
Documented Fabrication Stories
Repeat Weldments, Built Around Production Releases
A repeat welding program connected customer-supplied material, recurring releases, and a separate coating handoff. One documented production job recorded 1,000 completed units.
Industrial Ductwork, Prepared for the Truck Handoff
Large coated, flanged duct sections were prepared for transport with matching packing lists. Shipping correspondence and photographs document two truckloads prepared for transport at Ahner's shop.
A 33-Piece Bracket Batch, Cut, Formed, and Shipped
A small production batch of 10-gauge hot-rolled steel brackets moved through laser cutting and press-brake forming. Production and shipping records confirm all 33 pieces were completed and shipped.
