Contract Manufacturing and Fabrication

In manufacturing, it's easy to stick to what you know. But for designers and engineers facing truly challenging fabrication problems, thinking beyond conventional methods is key.
At Conard Corp., we've seen countless projects where traditional stamping or laser cutting simply couldn't achieve the required precision or detail. That's where photochemical machining (PCM) comes in as an... Read more...

At INSACO, we’ve built our reputation on doing the hard work after the material reaches full density and hardness. That means no guesswork. Just submicron tolerances and confidence that what you spec is what you get. Read more...

We work closely with customers to understand their needs and develop effective solutions at every stage of the design process, from prototypes to production, offering everything from off-the-shelf products to fully customized designs. Read more...

During a recent trade show, someone asked a thoughtful and surprisingly common question:
“What are diffusion-bonded parts with internal structures actually used for?”

This technology plays a key role in high-tech manufacturing, yet many people overlook its potential. Let’s explore it in more detail.

What Is Diffusion Bonding?

Dif... Read more...

The semiconductor industry pushes both design and materials science to the limit. Every tool — from etch systems to deposition modules — relies on components that can survive high heat, strong plasma, and mechanical stress. At the same time, equipment makers need prototypes delivered quickly to keep pace with new architectures and packaging methods.

Bending tubing changes more than shape—it thins walls, alters flow, and affects pressure. In sensitive systems, even small shifts can impact performance, compliance, and long-term reliability. Details matter. Read more...

As regulatory scrutiny tightens and radiation shielding demands evolve, Canada’s nuclear sector needs more than off-the-shelf solutions. That’s why MarShield’s recognition as an official ambassador for the Canadians for CANDU campaign marks a critical milestone for the future of radiation protection and Canadian-engineered nuclear solutions.

Modern solid modeling systems offer very direct paths for outputting data files for laser cutting (and its cousins: water jet and plasma), Wire EDM and even die design for both progressive and single strike die-stamping. But for sheet metal fabricating’s “best-kept secret,” CAD consideration for photo chemical machining (PCM) is an afterthought.

PCM, though, offe... Read more...

The Benefits of Photo Chemical Machining for Metal Filtration Devices

Metal filtration devices play a crucial role in industries ranging from aerospace and automotive to medical, chemical processing, and energy production. These components often require intricate, high-precision perforations and complex geometries to meet functional and performance demands. For manufacturer... Read more...
