Contract manufacturing
We make our departments' experience available to companies and craftspeople working to bespoke drawings.
We provide tube laser cutting and V-groove folding as contract manufacturing services, working from the client's drawing. Our technical office assesses feasibility according to the material and the geometry of the piece.
Work we have been doing since 1972
Working for other companies is part of our origins. In 1972, the artisan workshop in Carimate made metal products for the furniture industry: that experience laid the foundations for the collaborative relationships we continue to build with those who entrust us with a commission.
Today we support other companies in manufacturing products and in processes such as 3D tube laser cutting and V-groove folding. We work iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass and copper for furniture and industrial sectors including automotive, chemicals, lighting and mechanical engineering. The stages entrusted to our departments are agreed for each project.
V-groove folding and tube laser cutting for your production
Explore the materials, applications and features of our contract manufacturing processes.
3D tube laser cutting
We work tubes and profiles in iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass and copper. Holes, slots, shaped cut-outs, interlocking joints and angled cuts are made in a single processing cycle.
V-groove folding
With the VIVO METALFOLDING® system developed by YDF, we fold sheet metal along a V-groove to achieve sharp edges, generally at 90°, without mechanical joints.
Tubular metal structures
Tubular metal structures are a versatile solution for components used in furniture, architecture, retail and industry. Tube laser cutting produces highly precise elements, reducing subsequent operations and optimising the entire production process.
From drawing to finished component
Sending the drawing
Send us the file (DWG, DXF, STEP or PDF), specifying the material, thickness, quantity and required finish.
Technical review
The technical office checks the drawing, confirms that the component is within our capabilities and highlights any useful changes.
Quotation
We respond with a quotation for the processes and finish requested.
Production and delivery
We machine, inspect and pack the pieces; we can also arrange transport on request.
Tubes, profiles and semi-finished products
Contract-manufactured furniture and cladding
Alongside our contract manufacturing services, our completed projects demonstrate YDF's expertise.
Contract manufacturing: frequently asked questions
Do you accept small batches?
Yes: we also consider small-batch production. Feasibility is assessed according to the process, the complexity of the piece and the quantities required, to identify the most suitable solution for the project.
How are delivery times determined?
Lead times depend on the process, material and quantity. They are agreed when the order is finalised.
Do you work to the client's drawings?
Yes: we start with the client's file (DWG, DXF, STEP or PDF), review it in our technical office and manufacture the component to the drawing, highlighting any useful changes.
Do you also finish the pieces?
Yes: we can also finish the piece directly in our dedicated department.
Do you have a manufacturing task for us?
Send us your file in DWG, DXF, STEP or PDF format and specify the material, thickness, quantity and finish. We will define the processes and prepare a proposal.
