Typical needs
- Complete bills of materials delivered as kits or assembled
- Prototypes and pre-series before industrialisation
- Welded frames and guards
- Design and build of special machines
Machine builders and integrators need a supplier able to deliver a whole bill of materials: machined parts, sheet metal, castings, catalogue components and assembled sub-assemblies. DSSF CONNECT consolidates these needs under a single contract and one engineering point of contact.
For special machines and test benches, CONNECT Engineering handles design from the specification, then manufacturing and assembly in the network.
