LGS shop design

What it includes

Shop design	Member-by-member panel drawings, position numbering, take-offs.
Machine program	A file for the line controller, tailored to that machine’s parameters.
Machine survey	For an unknown machine: what it can do, where it punches, the maximum length.
Trial production	Accompanying the first run and refining the program.
Structural note	Optional — if verification is needed.

Machine-independent

The line does not get a drawing but a file. Practically every line works from CSV — the exception is FRAMECAD, which uses its own RFY format.

So the same design work can be issued to any compatible machine: the brand of the machine does not limit which projects we take on. Machine independence in practice · The logic of machine program formats.

Geometry is not a limit

Curves, skewed planes, bespoke forms. The machine cuts the trusses and the bracing systems, so angles and web layouts can be designed that would be disproportionately expensive to cut and weld by hand in hot-rolled steel. Trusses.

The narrow input

This service builds on the result of a closed detailed design, so its input criteria are the narrowest of our four services. Input data.

If the project is not there yet, that is not a problem — you just have to know which step we join at. The three steps.

With or without structural work

You can ask for the shop design alone. If verification is needed we supply a structural calculation and note alongside it — we do not sell you what you do not need. Optional structural note.

The point

Shop design is not an island but the end of a process. We can join at any step — but you have to know which one you are at.
