METAL FABRICATION
Turret Presses and Lasers
Turret punching and/or laser cutting is the first step in the fabrication process. The speed and accuracy of EVS Metal’s turret presses and lasers help us maintain a competitive edge on part cost and result in consistent quality. The ability to run unattended and the large capacity provided by our sixteen fabricators allows us to meet our customers’ ever-increasing demands. A comprehensive, on-site training program guarantees the exceptional skill level of EVS operators.
Forming
Our forming and bending department is equipped with the latest technology. We utilize European-style press brake tooling for greater accuracy, longer tool life, flexibility and faster set-up time. EVS Metal’s twenty-seven press brakes are networked to accurately store programs and speed set-up of repeat jobs. EVS utilizes Amada’s Bendcad software to program our brakes offline, further minimizing set-up 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.
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 finishing need.
MACHINING
Our ISO 9001:2015-certified CNC machining facilities in Texas (ITAR-registered) and New Jersey are equipped with state-of-the-art technology. Our staff of engineers imports 3D files (.sldprt, .prt, stp, iges, x_t) using the most recent version of SolidWorks, allowing our experienced craftsmen to use these 3D models to program the equipment using MasterCam X. EVS is able to perform secondary operations to sheet metal fabrications more efficiently, as well as full-blown turnkey machining to serve our customers various needs.

Additional Finishing Services
EVS Metal utilizes the expertise of several certified local sources for finishing, including services such as plating and anodizing. These additional capabilities reinforce our commitment to being an and-to-end provider, ensuring quality and consistency while simplifying our customers’ purchasing process.
ASSEMBLY / INTEGRATION
EVS Metal may be best known as a top fabricator of custom sheet metal, but as a vertically-integrated manufacturer, we also provide a number of other services, including many different types of assembly and integration:
- Mechanical Assembly: Assembling custom-fabricated parts into subassemblies and chassis by mechanical means such as fasteners or rivets, or welded means such as spot welding or arc welding.
- Assembly and Integration of UL-Certified Products: EVS currently builds many products that have been previously UL Certified by our customers in their own shops. Our engineers and production supervisors work with UL to ensure our New Jersey remains certified to build and label all products as our customers would do in their own facilities, including UL-Certified Type 1 508A enclosures.
- Active Electronics and Software Installation: Adds active circuit boards, hardware and software to the electromechanical assembly. Full functionality, performance and diagnostic testing can be completed. EVS can also perform all electrical safety testing including: AC/DC hipot, insulation resistance, ground continuity and leakage testing.
- Electromechanical Assembly: Joining of electrical components into the mechanical assembly, including the installation of fans, cables, wire harnesses and power supplies.
- Box Build and Logistics: Complete build-to-order assembly and/or integration with test processes that build a finished product for an OEM customer or end user. All logistical support and supply chain management services are provided including direct shipment to the end customer.
