We commence modern steelwork fabrication factories with computer-aided design and detailing (CAD) which is linked directly to factory floor computer numerically controlled (CNC) machinery creating a genuine CAD/CAM environment.
The accuracy of the computer-generated details being transmitted directly to the computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) machinery increases the quality standards of production. The fact that machinery has taken over from the tape measure means that the frame is produced to high-quality standards which are reflected in the speed and accuracy of steel erection on site.
This results in significant benefits both to the client and main contractor.
