Engineering Services
Our engineers use 3D solid modeling using SolidWorks and have the ability to open just about any CAD files you have.
Design & New Part Engineering
We can assist your engineers with new product development and aid your company with the process of taking a product from concept to carton.
- We can preprogram and nest most parts for yield optimization.
- We can run bend simulations in our advanced software to make sure formed parts can be achieved with existing tooling and equipment.
- Minimum flange lengths, holes pulling when forming, minimum edge to centerline for installed hardware & close looks at complex assemblies and weldments are some key elements that we have a keen eye on. Oftentimes we can offer suggestions and solutions in part size, formed dimensions and spot welding/welding designations for easier more cost-effective solutions and always passing those cost savings on to the customer.
At CSM we’ll even assist you with the design of sheet metal parts to enhance cost savings and ease of manufacturing. We have our own in house engineer who will work hand in hand with your engineers to understand your manufacturing requirements and bring our years of experience with sheet metal to all of your parts.
Engineering / Reverse Engineering / Reengineering
Don’t have a new product or blue prints for existing product? No problem, we can reverse engineer any of your current parts and assemblies to accommodate your needs.
We have been part of the Central Sheet Metal family for many years and the biggest reason is they are customer focused. Their knowledge in the processes have helped reduce cost, improve delivery, and improve design of both existing products as well as new products. I do not hesitate in recommending CSM to our customers because I know the service they will receive.

CSM is a family run business with an emphasis on "family." They don't let the fact that they "have a business to run" get in the way of treating you like your are part of the family too. Rob, Ron, and Pete are some of the most genuinely nice people that you'll meet in life and certainly in business. Which also means they give me the feeling that I'm the last person they want to send less than perfect work to. That attitude clearly shows up in the work they do for me.

The team at Central Sheet Metal understands our business inside and out, and they are incredibly responsive to our changing needs and priorities. We have worked together for more than 25 years and the current generation of leadership is proactive, forward-thinking, and their contributions really do make our products better. We continue to be a proud customer of Central Sheet Metal.
