At Fabricon, precision manufacturing is about delivering results—parts that work, on time, and to your exact specifications. Every component we produce starts with your requirements and ends with a product that meets the highest quality and performance standards. Let’s walk through our process and show you why Fabricon is a trusted partner for precision machining.
Step 1: Understanding Your Requirements
It all starts with a conversation. You tell us what you need, and we listen. What’s the part’s function? What are the material requirements? What tolerances are critical? Our team works closely with you to fully grasp your goals. This collaborative approach allows us to deliver solutions that align perfectly with your expectations.
Step 2: CAM Programming and Simulation
Once the design is finalized, our CAM programmers use GibbsCAM to generate precise toolpaths for our CNC machines. Before any machining begins, we run a complete simulation of the process. This step allows us to identify potential issues, refine toolpaths, and confirm that the final part will meet your specifications. It’s our way of guaranteeing accuracy before the first cut is made.
Step 3: CNC and Manual Machining
Our shop floor has state-of-the-art machinery, including CNC lathes with live tooling, 5-axis milling centers, and a horizontal mill with a pallet changer. These tools allow us to handle parts of all sizes and complexities, from small, complex components to large, heavy-duty pieces. For prototypes or custom one-offs, our skilled machinists use manual mills and lathes to deliver quick turnarounds without compromising quality.
Step 4: Rigorous Quality Assurance
We hold tolerances as tight as ±0.0003 inches, and our quality control process is thorough and meticulous. Each component undergoes in-process inspections using advanced tools like our CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine), optical comparators, and micro height gauges. If it doesn’t meet our standards, it doesn’t leave our shop.
Step 5: Post-Processing and Value-Added Services
After machining, we add the finishing touches. Whether you need a smooth surface finish, enhanced durability, or specialized coatings, we’ve got you covered. Our partners provide heat treating, anodizing, and plating services, and we can handle light assembly or custom packaging to make sure your parts arrive ready to use. We go beyond machining to deliver a complete solution.
Step 6: On-Time Delivery
We understand that timing is critical. With 40% open capacity and the ability to add shifts as needed, we’re equipped to handle urgent orders without compromising quality. If there’s a potential delay, we communicate proactively and work with you to find a solution. Our priority is your production schedule, and we’re committed to running your operations smoothly.
