Product Management

Every product has a life-cycle. Products begin as an idea. That idea is transformed into a design on a computer. The product design is estimated and volumes are forecasted. Our facility is laid out to build and deliver the product. Etc. Altogether these and other steps make up a product life-cycle. From start to finish we can guide the development and delivery of your product manufacturing needs.

Product Design

Turning an idea into a computer modeled product with exacting requirements is done in-house. We know our equipment, tooling, skills, and capabilities. This empowers us to efficiently translate your product ideas into realistic designs we know we can produce. This reduces waste and increases value delivery for our customers.

Process Analysis

Process refinement is a lower-level yet crucial exercise performed by the doers on the manufacturing floor. Every time a part, sub-assembly, or final-assembly is produced there are opportunities to reduce waste and improve quality. Measurement tools are built into our processes so they can be managed and improved upon. It's one way we get better.

Procurement

Supply chains have experienced many challenges in recent years. To mitigate delays we work closely with a number of affiliates to procure materials. This ranges from metals to fasteners. Our supplier affiliates have a proven track-record for delivering high-quality materials quickly and at competitive prices.

Life-Cycle Planning

Planning a product is more complex than designing it. We guide our customers through the product life-cycle. Products evolve over time. Parts are redesigned, assembly processes are refactored, different materials are considered, new versions are imagnined, cost-reduction exercises are implemented. Risk is mitigated by knowing what we're doing.

Manufacturing Services

Solvers Manufacturing can either directly or through its affiliate network provide the following services.

0625-Laser_Cutting-1
CNC Plasma Cutting

We CNC Plasma Cut parts from a variety of conductive materials. Tolerances vary depending on the thickness and material. Materials we cut include mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.

0854-Press_Maschine
CNC Braking

We brake sheet and plate to form channel, angle, stiffeners, to bend boxes, and more. Our CNC press brake forms material up to 10 feet long in a various materials and thicknesses.

0045-Assembly
Final Assembly

We employ precision ground fixture tables and fixturing. This tooling enables us to be flexible and precise while continuously delivering repeatable product assemblies.

Products We Make

Solvers Manufacturing focuses on serving regional businesses and trades people with light-industrial metal product design and low-volume production. We specialize working with steel sheet 24ga to 10ga as well as plate 1/8in to 1in. In house we offer 2D as well as 3D CAD modeling services in order to design parts and assemblies. Our specialized CNC thermal cutting, CNC sheet metal bending, and welding equipment empowers us to quickly and cost-competitively deliver products that keep our community working!

We work with many, reputable local affiliates to coordinate and provide services we are unable to fulfill in house. Affiliate services include machining, finishing such as wet paint or powder coating, steel erection, concrete/foundations, excavating, engineering, and roofing.
