Fabrication that starts with the problem

Custom work is rarely served by generic answers. Schmelzle MechFab works from the part, equipment, measurements, and intended use to evaluate a sensible way to repair or build it.

Steel and aluminum welding

Welding and fabrication capabilities include steel and aluminum work for appropriate projects. Material, access, contamination, loading, and existing damage all affect whether and how a component can be repaired.

Repair and custom fabrication

The shop handles repair fabrication as well as custom components and modifications. Truck- and equipment-related work can combine cutting, fit-up, welding, and finishing around the actual application.

Machining-supported fabrication

In-shop machining capability supports projects that need more than welded fit-up alone. It can help create or modify parts, establish accurate interfaces, and solve repair problems that cross traditional service categories.
