OFM Metal Works is more than just a custom Metal Fabricator. Our Engineering Department is a vital asset when it comes to lowering production cost, material selection, production scheduling, and final product performance. The engineering team at OFM can expedite any project from R&D to fast prototyping in a reliable and cost-efficient manner. Aside from our state-of-the-art fully equipped ISO 9001:2015 Certified facility, our teams’ extensive manufacturing knowledge is the best benefit we can offer you.

Customers who manufacture with us can count on our full-time design professionals with computer-assisted design software to deliver production-ready mechanical drawings, designs, CNC files, and a viable engineering solution. Vertically integrating this department does away with any familiarity issues that often occur when the CAD person is not familiar with the given capabilities of a specific machine or material. The ability of our Engineering Department personnel of being able to walk onto the production floor to see their design in production or a Production Manager to come to our Engineering Department to fine tune a manufacturing process is a time saving and cost saving step many other Metal Fabrication shops are unable to offer.

From a concept and then CAD mechanical drawing, our fast prototype production processes provide you with certainty that you can count on. OFM Metal Works’ 55 years of experience can deliver a high precision, mechanically sound and cost-effective Metal Fabrication solution for any size project you may have.

Custom-engineered steel solutions for solar installations offered by OFM are designed and manufactured according to site-specific conditions. These solar support structures are delivered as galvanized and/or painted and are an optimal solution for parking garages, solar farms, carports, canopies, charging stations, ground mounts, and roof mounts.

Structures are adaptable for all kinds of PV modules, different tilt angles, and designed according to Eurocode, ASCE, or required national standards with high reliability.

Process

Our experienced engineering team provides a professional design review at the start of every project to reduce overall build time and enhance results.

Manufacturing Feasibility

We draw on our deep expertise and experience in parts manufacturing to determine your ideal manufacturing solution before we quote it to ensure we’ve considered all cost, material, and quality factors.

Part Processing

Once we determine the most effective method for producing your requested part, we’ll select the best-fit manufacturing process and manage the entire project to ensure everything is produced as specified.

Design Optimization

The design isn’t always right the first time around. Our engineers collaborate with your team to optimize the design for your particular project and ensure the final product matches the initial vision.

Cost Reduction Support

To provide you with the most cost-effective solution, our engineering team will work with you to suggest alternative materials, processes, or capabilities for your metal parts.

At OFM Metal Works, we take pride in delivering innovative and reliable solutions to meet our customers' needs. We aim to achieve success together with you.
