Capabilities
Parts, Weldments, and More
Since 1992, LCNW has been committed to leading in precision parts manufacturing. We do this by integrating advanced technology — from automated material handling to high-speed cutting systems — to streamline production and elevate quality.
Laser Cutting: Our high-power lasers can cut steel up to 1.75″ thick, and aluminum or stainless up to 1.5″, on sheets as large as 96″ x 240″. With automated handling, we maintain tight tolerances and handle high volumes with ease.
Bending: Our press brakes form light to heavy gauge material with precision and consistency. Backed by a deep tooling library and material expertise, we deliver clean, accurate results — getting parts right the first time, with no rework needed.
CNC Milling: CNC milling at LCNW delivers tight-tolerance, high-complexity parts with repeatable accuracy. We support both prototyping and large-scale production across a range of materials — always with efficiency, flexibility, and precision.
Welding: From laser welding to MIG and TIG, our team delivers precise, clean welds on steel, stainless, aluminum, and more. Our four robotic welders — including a 62-foot, three-cell system – provide quality throughput on high-volume and complex parts.
Finishing: From in-house finishing services such as deburring, edge breaking, and linear polishing to managing outsourced surface treatments and coatings, LCNW provides a true one-stop shop through our network of trusted finishing partners.
Assembly: We offer full assembly support — from mechanical fastening and labeling to complex subassemblies and kits boxed for distribution. Our team ensures your product is ready to use, saving time, reducing labor, and simplifying your workflow.

LCNW partners with agricultural manufacturers and OEMs to deliver rugged, production-ready metal parts for farm machinery, implements, storage systems, and enclosures. From heavy-duty brackets to formed panels and welded assemblies, we offer a one-stop solution for cutting, forming, and finishing metal components that stand up to real-world abuse.
What should you look for in a contract manufacturer for agricultural equipment?
When choosing a contract manufacturer for agricultural equipment, it’s important to look for a partner who understands the demands of farming environments and the performance requirements of heavy-duty machinery. The ideal fabrication partner should offer:
- Full-service capabilities, including cutting, forming, welding, and finishing—so you’re not coordinating multiple vendors.
- Experience with durable materials like mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum that can withstand exposure to moisture, dust, and vibration.
- Tight quality control and repeatability, especially for OEMs who need parts that perform consistently across large production runs.
- Flexibility for prototypes and short runs, since ag equipment often requires custom adaptations or low-volume parts.
- Lead time reliability, because delays can affect seasonal operations and equipment readiness.
- Clear communication and support, from quoting through delivery.
LCNW meets these needs by offering turnkey metal part production tailored to agricultural applications—ensuring rugged performance, fast turnaround, and simplified supply chains for equipment manufacturers and repair operations alike.

FAQs
Agricultural metal fabrication refers to the process of cutting, forming, and assembling metal parts used in farming equipment, implements, and structures. These components must withstand harsh environments, heavy use, and exposure to the elements. Common applications include brackets, frames, panels, housings, and custom enclosures for machinery and storage systems.
Why outsource fabrication for ag equipment?
Many agricultural OEMs and suppliers outsource metal fabrication to reduce costs, increase capacity, and streamline production. A trusted fabrication partner like LCNW provides precision cutting, forming, and finishing services—all under one roof—so manufacturers can focus on design and assembly while maintaining high quality and on-time delivery.
What types of agricultural parts do you fabricate?
We produce structural brackets, mounting plates, enclosures, guards, panels, and custom components for farm equipment, implements, and storage systems. If it’s metal and needs to hold up in the field, we can make it.
Yes. A large extent of agricultural equipment is by definition heavy machinery. We regularly cut and form thick sheet and plate steel, stainless, and aluminum for load-bearing parts used in agricultural environments.
What industries overlap with agricultural fabrication?
Agricultural metal fabrication overlaps with construction, heavy equipment, and commercial machinery. LCNW serves clients across these sectors, offering broad experience with structural parts, enclosures, and welded assemblies for both indoor and outdoor applications.
The more detail you provide upfront, the smoother the process — and the better the outcome. To ensure accuracy and avoid delays, your shop drawing should include:
– Part name or drawing number
– Revision level
– Material type
– Dimensions and tolerances
– Hole placements and bend details
– Secondary processes (e.g., tapping, machining, countersinking)
– Weld symbols and locations
– Hardware callouts
– Bill of Materials (BOM) for assemblies
– Finish requirements (e.g., powder coating, plating)
– Notes or flags for any critical features or inspection points
