Our latest machine is the VTC-300 CII which is a highly versatile vertical machining centre with a large 2000 mm table cross dimension and high-speed rapid traverse of up to 36 m/min. Productivity and efficiency are greatly improved as the machine work envelope is separated into 2 work areas. This allows the machine to be in cycle, in one work area, while a part is being set up in the other work area.

Our plant is fully automated and employs industry leading pre-treatment process OXSILAN®. OXSILAN® is a new metal pre-treatment technology that is free from hazardous chemicals and provides superior corrosion resistance for a wide range of metal substrates. OXSILAN® replaces traditional iron and zinc phosphate products. The products provide a superior ecological profile. OXSILAN® is suitable for metal surface treatment, e.g. cold rolled steel, aluminium, zinc coated steels, as well as multi-metal applications.

With a versatile punch/ laser combination service, Alpha are able to offer complete flexibility to produce punch details such as louvres and ribs alongside complex lasered profiles and etches in one process. The benefits of Punch/ Laser combination are that production time is dramatically reduced by combining the two processes. Costs savings are also made as complex and costly tooling is not required.

Alpha offer a range of folding solutions depending on the needs of our customers including manual, automated and robot folding machines. Our manual folding line consists of 6 manned Amada press brakes capable of folding mild steel, coated steels, stainless steel, aluminium and alloys upto 4100mm in length. Automated folding offers optimised machine cycle times through automated tool selection and simultaneous component load and unload. Parts are programmed offline allowing the machine to run components whilst the next is programmed ready for production. We currently operate an automated TBZ panel folding line as well as completely automated robot folder.

Alpha Manufacturing utilise the latest Pullmax and Trumpf punching machinery to offer unbeatable productivity, reliability and flexibility as well as ultimate efficiency through automated “lights out” production. We are able to perform 24-hour operation of unmanned CNC Punching machines which gives us greatly improved productivity with considerable quality improvements. Customers benefit from outstanding process consistency, offering industry leading punching standards.

Alpha Manufacturing have an experienced design team who are dedicated to working closely with our customers to ensure that every part we manufacture is exactly to clients' requirements. Using the CAD software and design techniques, our NPI (New product introduction) department ensure that all parts are manufactured in the most efficient and cost effective way, without compromising on quality through the manufacturing process.

Alpha Manufacturing offers a range of welding solutions including MIG welding, TIG welding, robotic welding, projection welding and spot welding for aluminium, mild steel and stainless steels. Our highly trained weld team are some of the best in the industry and our quality is second to none. Robotic Welding Alpha Manufacturing's installation of a robotic welding has increased our capacity to offer high accuracy weld detail in volume as well as 100% product repeatability. Robotic Welding is the perfect solution for customers who require high volume, highly accurate, repeatable products. Alpha's robot welder boasts high-end features such as Cold Metal Transfer technology to eradicate spatter and reduce burn-through and distortion. The Robot also comes equipped with Seam Finding technology to ensure the robot always welds true to joining parts.
