Material handling operations require equipment and components that can support consistent movement, positioning, and processing of materials. PDF Process Development & Fabrication, Inc. provides custom manufacturing and fabrication services for material handling applications, including equipment, conveyor systems, machined components, and structural assemblies. Our capabilities cover CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, welding, assembly, and engineering support, giving you access to multiple manufacturing services for projects ranging from individual components to larger equipment and systems.
Custom Material Handling Equipment and Systems
PDF designs and fabricates custom material handling equipment based on your equipment and building requirements. This approach allows components and systems to fit the available space and support the intended workflow. Our capabilities include automated conveyor systems and other fabricated equipment used to move goods and materials through industrial operations.
Whether your project requires individual fabricated components or a larger equipment assembly, PDF can support the manufacturing process from fabrication through assembly. Our team works with your project requirements to produce equipment suited to the application, facility layout, and production needs.
CNC Material Handling Components
CNC material handling components require accurate machining for proper fit and reliable operation within larger equipment and assemblies. PDF provides CNC machining capabilities for producing parts with specific dimensions, holes, mounting features, and other machining requirements.
Our machine shop supports milling, drilling, and other CNC operations for material handling components and equipment. This service can be applied to individual parts, replacement components, prototypes, and production requirements. By combining machining with our fabrication and assembly capabilities, PDF can support more of the manufacturing process through one source.
Sheet Metal Fabrication for Material Handling
Sheet metal fabrication for material handling applications can include equipment structures, panels, brackets, supports, guards, and other fabricated components based on project requirements. PDF provides laser cutting, forming, rolling, CNC punching, shearing, and assembly services to produce sheet metal components in a range of configurations.
These capabilities allow our team to move from raw sheet metal to fabricated and assembled components while maintaining control over the manufacturing process. If your material handling project requires fabricated metal parts alongside machined or welded components, PDF can combine these services within the same project.
Conveyor Systems and Structural Assemblies
Conveyor systems require properly fabricated components and structural assemblies to support the movement of goods through a facility. PDF manufactures automated conveyor systems as well as rollers, conveyor components, and structural assemblies for material handling applications.
Our fabrication, machining, welding, and assembly capabilities can be combined based on your equipment requirements. This provides a practical manufacturing resource for projects involving conveyor equipment and supporting structures.
From Fabrication to Complete Equipment
PDF can combine engineering, CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, welding, assembly, controls, and system integration based on your project requirements. This range of capabilities supports projects that require more than individual components.
For larger material handling projects, our turnkey services can cover engineering, fabrication, assembly, integration, testing, and delivery. You can work with one manufacturing partner for multiple stages of the project instead of coordinating each process separately.
Material handling capabilities include:
- Custom material handling equipment
- Automated conveyor systems
- CNC-machined components
- Sheet metal fabrication
- Welding and structural assemblies
- Equipment assembly and integration
Quality and Manufacturing Support
PDF maintains an ISO 9001:2015-certified quality system and provides manufacturing support across fabrication, machining, and assembly. Our capabilities accommodate projects ranging from individual parts and prototypes to larger production and equipment requirements.
