Mechanical Assembly & Sub-Assembly Services in Oldham

Fabrication and Assembly Services in Oldham, Manchester and across the UK

Kaizen Engineering provides sub-contract mechanical assembly from our works on Thomas Street, Shaw, Oldham, alongside our laser cutting, press braking and steel fabrication. Adding another contractor to your production process usually means extra cost and a longer delivery time. Because we can make the parts and assemble them on the same site, assembly can start as soon as your components are ready, with no transport or storage between suppliers. We take on assembly work for large UK manufacturers and small local businesses alike, from a single prototype to high-volume production.

Need a price? We offer same-day quotes. Email your drawings to sales@kaizen-eng.com or call 01706 847 172 and we’ll quote the whole job, from cutting and folding to welding and assembly.

What Our Assembly Service Covers

Sometimes a project needs more than a set of loose parts. Our team can assist with your assembly requirements, building the parts we make into finished units or sub-assemblies to your drawing. Typical work includes:

  • Mechanical sub-assembly: bolting and fixing laser cut, folded and welded parts together into a finished unit
  • Fabrication and assembly: welded frames, brackets and housings built up into finished units before they leave us
  • Guards, covers and enclosures: fabricated sheet metal assemblies such as machine guards and fan housings, ready to fit
  • Kitting: parts grouped, labelled and packed per job or kit, ready for your line.

Tell us how you want the parts supplied, fully assembled, as sub-assemblies or as kits, and we’ll include it in the quote.

Why Use One Supplier to Make and Assemble?

Less Transport and Storage

When cutting, folding, welding and assembly happen in one place, parts don’t need to be shipped to another contractor or stored while they wait. That saves you money and handling.

Shorter Lead Times

Fewer hand-offs mean fewer delays. Assembly starts as soon as the parts come off our own production line, rather than waiting for deliveries from several suppliers.

One Point of Contact

You deal with one team from quote to delivery. If something on the drawing needs checking, the people who cut, fold, weld and assemble the parts are all on the same site.

A Finished Standard You Can Rely On

Our highly skilled workforce and in-house computer and design facilities let us check your drawing, plan the build and finish it to a high standard in one place.

Cut, Fold, Fabricate and Assemble Under One Roof

Assembly is the final step of our one-stop service. A typical job runs like this:

  1. Laser cut the blanks on our 8kW Trumpf fibre laser, with same-day laser cutting available, in mild and stainless steel up to 25mm and aluminium up to 12mm.
  2. Fold them on our CNC press brake, up to 3.5m wide and 20mm thick.
  3. Weld them in our 11,000 sq ft fabrication facility, using MIG or TIG.
  4. Assemble them into the finished unit or sub-assembly you need.

We hold a large stock of material on site, including S275 and S355 carbon steel, wear plate, and 304 and 316 stainless steel, which helps keep lead times short. You can see our full range of engineering services or read more about Kaizen Engineering.
