Subcontract Machining and
Fabrication Services

Machining is a manufacturing method which involves the removal of material from a larger raw piece to create a specific shape. This process is commonly used with metal materials and is known as subtractive manufacturing. Unlike additive manufacturing methods such as 3D printing, which add material to create a shape, machining relies on cutting tools and machine tools to carve out the desired form. 

By utilising various tools and techniques, we are trusted to produce intricate and accurate components for various industries, reliably and efficiently crafting high-quality parts with tight tolerances and complex geometries.

Here at Link Business, we provide a range of commonly used machining methods to meet various needs. These include:

• CNC Turing: This involves rotating a workpiece against a stationary cutting tool to create cylindrical shapes.
• CNC Milling: This utilises rotating cutters to remove material and achieve complex shapes.
• CNC Laser Cutting: To which we use a focused fiber beam to cut through materials with high precision.

Dealing with ferrous, non-ferrous and exotic materials, we offer customised and complex machining services for most requirements. Get in touch today to discuss your needs.

A fabrication service is a specialised process that involves the creation of metal structures through cutting, bending, and assembling techniques. This value-added service transforms raw materials into machines, parts, and structures tailored to specific requirements. 

By utilising cutting-edge technology and expertise, our fabrication services can produce a wide range of customised components for various industries. Whether it's producing intricate parts or large-scale structures, we provide tailored solutions to meet a diverse range of manufacturing needs. Get in touch today to find out more.

Manufacturing transforms raw materials into finished products through a series of processes. It focuses on mass production from start to finish. Fabrication, on the other hand, involves assembling parts to create a final product with attention to detail and precision. Fabrication often includes customisation or small-scale production. 

Manufacturing creates new products, while fabrication assembles or customises existing components.

Here at Link Business, the main types of fabrication services we offer include Tube Bending, Welding, and Press Braking;

• Our tube bending allows for the shaping and manipulation of metal tubes to exact design requirements.  We can provide +-0.2 degrees of precision, with a 10mm-90mm od capacity.
• Fabrication welding is essential for joining metals together, creating strong and durable structures. We have both TIG and MIG welding capabilities to meet any project requirement.
• Press braking is integral for bending and shaping metal sheets accurately and with precision. We can fold a range of components, with an 80-tonne capacity machinery, and the ability to handle material up to 2.5m in length.

Beyond this, we also offer Metal Finishing, along with Assembly and Packaging, to ensure a comprehensive end-to-end and efficient solution for your projects.

A subcontracting service involves the outsourcing of specific parts of your project to an external company, like Link Business.

This practice is common when you face a task or challenge that you lack the internal capacity, equipment, or expertise to handle. By subcontracting, you can complete that part of the project cost-effectively, without the expensive upfront costs of training or new equipment.

This collaborative approach enables our clients to streamline their operations, enhance their project outcomes, and meet their requirements with precision. To find out more, get in touch today to discuss your requirements and needs.
