Northern's batch engineering program automatically creates prints, unfolds sheet metal parts, and programs CNC machines. This eliminates tedious work and allows our engineers to focus on customer problems.
 

Engineering
Northern is ready to assist you with fabrications, both big and small. We have the CAD/CAM capabilities to create detailed designs and reduce manufacturing costs. Northern's engineering role depends on our customers requirements, however our services typically fall into the following categories:

Design for Manufacturability

  

Turn your CAD drawing into sheet metal sub-assemblies and then into CNC code. Much of this work can be done automatically with our knowledge based engineering software. Our engineering team focuses on designing the most complex parts or assemblies.

 
   

Design Revisions

  
Using our experience to improve designs and reduce manufacturing costs. If we understand your design intent, we may be able to make small changes to your products for large savings.  

 

  

Ongoing Process Improvements

 
Improving the fabrication process specifically for your parts to reduce costs. For repeat business, these ongoing improvement efforts allow us to share cost savings with our customers.  
 

CAD/CAM Technology

  
Northern is constantly reviewing the latest in CAD/CAM software to give our engineers the best tools for reducing product development times. In addition to helping with our customers' designs, we also use our CAD software to develop custom manufacturing solutions such as part fixtures, work cell layouts, and custom tooling.

Northern prefers to work with DWG, IGES and DXF files. If you have CAD files with other extensions, please contact us. Northern will work with you to solve any software incompatibilities.
