05Markets

Built for demanding industries.

OEM customers in medical, automotive, military and industrial markets, plus architectural and decorative metalwork. Each has different requirements, and here is how Right's processes meet them.

Medical

Precision fabrication for products where quality cannot be an afterthought.

Medical equipment lives in front of clinicians and patients. Frames have to be straight and repeatable, welds clean, and exterior finishes durable and environmentally clean. Right combines tube bending, sheet metal forming, TIG welding and assembly with APC finishing, so structures arrive complete.
