Metal Fabrication Solutions
Turret Punch Presses and Cutting Lasers
EVS performs precision sheet metal fabrication processes on a range of materials including steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and brass. Turret punching and/or laser cutting is the first step in the fabrication process with any of these metals in order to produce a finished part or product. The speed and accuracy of EVS Metal’s turret presses and lasers, including CNC-enabled machines, helps us maintain a competitive edge on part cost, and results in consistently high levels of quality. The ability to run unattended and the large capacity provided by our sixteen machines allows us to meet and exceed our customers’ requirements. A comprehensive, on-site training program guarantees the exceptional skill level of EVS’s machine operators.
Metal Forming and Bending
Our metal forming and bending department is equipped with the latest fabrication technology, including CNC-operated machines and those with automated bending robots. We utilize European-style press brake tooling for greater accuracy, longer tool life, flexibility and faster set-up time. EVS Metal’s 27 press brakes are networked to accurately store programs and speed setup of repeat jobs, utilizing Amada’s Bendcad software to program the brakes offline, further minimizing machine downtime and lead times.
Hardware Insertion
Our hardware insertion capabilities feature massive capacity, including 33 Haeger insertion presses, most of which are equipped with automated feeds to increase efficiency.
Metal Polishing, Graining and Deburring
To provide EVS customers with scratch and burr-free parts, we utilize state-of-the-art Timesaver© graining/deburring machines and an extensive array of tumbling and grinding equipment. From grained finishes to #8 mirror stainless, our highly-skilled techs can handle every surface metal finishing need.
CNC MACHINING / MACHINE SHOPS
Our ISO 9001:2015-certified machine shops in Austin, Texas (ITAR-registered) and Stroudsburg, PA are equipped with automated, state-of-the-art CNC machining technology for metals & plastics, including steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Our staff of engineers imports 3D files (.sldprt, .prt, stp, iges, x_t) using the most recent version of SolidWorks, allowing our experienced machine operators to use these 3D models to program the equipment using MasterCam X.
As a result of the company’s investment in advanced machining technology, EVS is also able to perform secondary operations on precision sheet metal fabrications more efficiently to better serve our customers’ needs.
