Sourcing Heavy-Duty OEM Components: Eliminating Year End Delays

Late-Q3 often sees major manufacturing crunches, especially when you’re trying to fabricate complex sub-components in-house. Handling raw processing in the same space where you do final assembly can put significant strain on your factory floor space, labor capacity, and Q4 delivery schedules.

With Gerber Wood Products as your OEM wood parts manufacturer partner, you can avoid these and other issues. As an established industrial wood parts supplier USA manufacturers trust, our high-capacity bulk wood component production is perfectly suited to streamline your own production processes and ensure your Q4 deliveries go smoothly. Here’s how.

The Hidden Cost of In-House Sub-Assembly

Your own facility already has a lot of work going on to complete final product assembly. If you’re trying to run manufacturing activities like primary cutting, beam sawing, and routing operations, your facility can become cramped and inefficient, with different processes getting in each other’s way. Shifting your raw material preparation offsite frees up valuable square footage and labor for assembling your core products.

Precision Engineering Across Diverse Substrates

At Gerber Wood Products, we provide the capability to machine solid hardwoods, softwoods, engineered sheet goods, and even industrial plastics (ABS, HDPE). Our precision CNC equipment enables strict adherence to tight dimensional tolerances as small as +/-0.005″, even across high-volume production runs. This ensures that piece 10,000 will be the same dimensions and quality as the first piece.

Collaborative Engineering for Unit Cost Reduction

We believe in a collaborative approach to get the results you need for your project. Our engineering team works directly with your CAD teams to optimize material yield and component geometry. This collaborative approach is then combined with computerized nesting and high-speed processing, which helps eliminate material waste during manufacturing to further lower your overall unit costs.

Supply Chain Security and Domestic Reliability

Finally, as a domestic partner, working with Geber Wood ensures you don’t have to worry about the volatility, long lead times, and shipping delays that can come when sourcing imported components. A USA-based precision CNC wood parts partner provides the rapid turnaround and dependable scheduling you need for your OEM component sourcing.

By outsourcing your OEM wood components before peak Q4 demands arrive, you can ensure everything goes smoothly with your year-end projects. Submit your engineering drawings to Gerber Wood Products today to learn how we can optimize your Q4 production line.
