We have over 25 years of experience in creating components for OEMs across globally recognised sectors.
Successfully manufacturing components for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) is rooted in versatility and partnership. At Yorkshire Laser we work closely with our customers to deliver what is needed on time and on budget.
The definition of an OEM is a company that designs and produces unique parts or systems, for which they own the Intellectual Property (IP), that another business then uses within its own product and sells under its own branding.
A fundamental part in the supply chain of many critical industries, OEMs are often highly specialised, providing high-performance parts and systems, ensuring consistency and quality to meet stringent manufacturing standards.
In designing and assembling their part or product, OEMs often call on the service of other specialists to manufacture bespoke components for them. This is where Yorkshire Laser comes in. We work in partnership with hundreds of OEMs to provide sheet metal expertise, helping develop the precise metal parts required to make-up the overall product and then fabricating them to exact tolerances.
Yorkshire Laser is versatile enough to tackle any job, no matter the scale or complexity. We have worked on projects for smaller companies plus larger multi-national organisations in globally recognised sectors and everything in between. The industries they represent are as diverse as our service offering, ranging from electronic companies to furniture suppliers. We’ve helped them all!
Our reputation for consistency, quality and compatibility ensures our customers keep coming back time and time again. We work closely with our customers to define their requirements and have a proven track record of delivering affordable and timely components within strict deadlines.
The extent of our involvement is in our customers’ hands. We can provide profiled and pressed parts that customers’ own engineering departments can fabricate themselves or comprehensive sheet metal fabrications supplied complete, even down to the finish of choice. Whatever works best for you, we’ll make sure the solution is cost-effective and delivered on time.
We have the experience, expertise and technology to be your metal work fabrication specialist. Contact us today on 01924 220236 or click here to get in touch.
Mild steel is relatively cheap, easy to work, and very durable, it’s the go to option for the vast majority of enclosures. Mild steel's one weakness is its lack of resistance to corrosion; for this reason it tends to be used predominantly on enclosures that are being sited indoors.
Stainless steel is Ideally suited for use in the most demanding industrial environments and the preferred choice for use in all external settings. 304 grade stainless is effective in all outdoor environments except coastal or if in contact with corrosive chemicals. In these instances, 316 is used instead.Stainless steel enclosures are manufactured to meet the most demanding industrial and hazardous area environmental applications. Stainless steel is the premier choice of enclosure for instrumentation and electrical appliances.
Lightweight and good corrosion-resistance are aluminium’s strengths, however the material’s reduction in hardness compared to steel and stainless steel and the cost of working and finishing it which is higher than steel, mean it’s used primarily where weight is the overriding issue.
