Our Manufacturing Process

From Drawing Review to Export Dispatch

A successful manufacturing project depends on clear technical communication and coordination at every stage. Our process is designed to provide a structured path from initial engineering requirement through manufacturing and dispatch.

Drawing & Requirement Review

We begin by understanding the requirement.

We review, where applicable:

  • Drawing
  • Drawing revision
  • Part number
  • Material
  • Quantity
  • Annual quantity
  • Tolerances
  • Threads
  • Surface finish
  • Welding requirements
  • Coating / plating
  • Inspection requirements
  • Delivery location
  • Required date
  • Special documentation

Manufacturing Assessment

We identify the most appropriate manufacturing process based on the component.

Examples:

CNC turning → finishing → inspection

CNC milling → surface treatment → inspection

Laser cutting → folding → welding → finishing

Casting → machining → inspection

The final process depends on the actual component and customer requirements.

Supplier Selection

Suitable manufacturing partners are identified based on:

  • Technical capability
  • Process capability
  • Material
  • Quantity
  • Component size
  • Tolerance requirements
  • Quality requirements
  • Finishing requirements
  • Production requirements

Where practical, alternative supplier options may be considered.

Quotation & Technical Confirmation

Supplier quotations are reviewed for more than price.

Considerations can include:

  • Manufacturing price
  • Tooling
  • Material
  • Lead time
  • Quantity
  • Process
  • Finish
  • Quality requirements
  • Packaging
  • Communication
  • Other project-specific requirements

The selected quotation should reflect the actual project requirements.

Prototype / Sample Approval

Where a prototype or sample is required, the sample can be coordinated and reviewed before production.

This stage may be used to confirm:

  • Dimensions
  • Fit
  • Finish
  • Material
  • Manufacturing feasibility
  • Customer requirements

Do not guarantee prototype approval times on the website.

Production Coordination

Once requirements are confirmed, production is coordinated with the selected manufacturing partner.

This can include:

  • Technical clarification
  • Production follow-up
  • Progress communication
  • Quantity coordination
  • Manufacturing updates

Resolution of technical questions

Quality Inspection

Where required, inspection and verification are coordinated before dispatch.

Potential checks include:

  • Dimensions
  • Critical tolerances
  • Quantity
  • Material
  • Surface finish
  • Visual condition
  • Documentation

Packing & Export Dispatch

After production and quality requirements are completed, packaging and dispatch are coordinated.

This may include:

  • Packaging
  • Labelling
  • Documentation
  • Freight coordination
  • Export preparation
  • Dispatch communication
