Fox Precision Tooling has invested in new equipment for stainless steel fabrication, bringing more of the manufacturing process in house and strengthening the company's ability to deliver for customers on both speed and quality.
The investment is a direct response to what customers need most: faster turnaround and consistent, verifiable quality on every part that leaves the workshop. By expanding in house fabrication capability, Fox Precision Tooling reduces reliance on external suppliers, tightens control over lead times, and keeps quality checks where they belong, close to the build.
Bringing more of the fabrication process in house - what it means for the build, and for the customer.
Stainless fabrication sits at the heart of a huge amount of what Fox Precision Tooling builds, from frames and guarding to bespoke components within robot cells and conveyor systems. Bringing more of that work in house means fewer handoffs, fewer delays waiting on third parties, and a shorter, tighter path from design to finished part.
It also means quality control happens on Fox Precision Tooling's own terms. Every stainless component can now be checked, verified, and signed off in house before it becomes part of a wider system, giving customers confidence that what arrives on their production line has been built and inspected to the same standard throughout.
This latest investment continues a pattern that's defined Fox Precision Tooling since it was founded in 2023: reinvesting in the business to keep pace with the ambition of the projects it takes on. From a converted cattle shed in Ashbourne to a growing Derby facility now approaching 11,000 square feet, every step has been about building the capability to give customers exactly what they need.
New stainless fabrication equipment is the latest piece of that, and it's one that customers will feel directly, in shorter lead times and in the quality of every part that comes off the shop floor.
