Mechanical fasteners and hardware insertion to assemble sheet metal parts with strength and efficiency and to ensure dependable sheet metal connections.
Versatility • Reliability • Rigorous Quality Control
Hardware Insertion for Strength & Precision in Sheet Metal Parts
At FTI Manufacturing, we utilize multiple hardware insertion machines to ensure accurate, efficient, and consistent assembly of sheet metal components, including rivet and fastener insertion. Our process reduces production costs while enhancing durability and product reliability. By integrating fasteners directly into sheet metal, FTI Manufacturing enables seamless assembly, disassembly, and maintenance of components, improving versatility and long-term performance.
Our expertise lies in precisely creating openings, holes, and custom features to accommodate hardware. This ensures strong structural integrity while simplifying the assembly process

Engineering & Design Support
At FTI Manufacturing, our dedicated engineering team goes beyond fabrication; we partner with you to bring smarter, more efficient solutions to life. From concept development and design improvements to product enhancements and reverse engineering, we work closely with your team to ensure your parts are delivered with precision, speed, and cost-efficiency.
With decades of collective experience across diverse industries, our sales, management, and engineering experts understand the evolving challenges of modern manufacturing. We collaborate with clients at every stage, refining product designs, optimizing production processes, and simplifying manufacturing steps, to reduce complexity and unlock cost savings for your final product.
We have the capability to import and unfold your 3D models (.dwg, .step, .iges, .sldasm, .ldprt, .dxf) built in SolidWorks, Pro/E, and other modelling software . Once imported, the models are unfolded and downloaded directly into our CAM process, reducing manual errors, accelerating lead times, and ensuring consistent, high-quality sheet metal components.
JIT / KANBAN for Smarter Manufacturing
At FTI Manufacturing, we leverage the Just-In-Time (JIT) inventory strategy to align production precisely with your ordering needs. This reduces idle inventory, optimizes costs, and ensures you receive a high-quality product delivered on time, every time, at a competitive price.
We pair JIT with the Kanban system to streamline our lean production practices. By setting clear minimum and maximum stock levels, we maintain a highly responsive pull-based system that adapts to your demand without unnecessary waste.
Our approach not only reduces excess inventory for both customers and suppliers but also ensures seamless production flow and faster lead times. With full pipeline visibility through our tracking systems, FTI keeps your supply chain running smoothly, reliably, and efficiently.
