When Uptime Matters,
We Deliver Fast

OEMs operate on tight schedules, structured production cycles, and customer commitments that can’t slip. When a part is delayed, a design changes, or a production run scales unexpectedly, you need a fabrication partner who responds quickly and communicates clearly. At LMI, we combine smart quoting technology with efficient, in-house processes to reduce turnaround times and keep your production moving.

Fast quoting keeps your projects on schedule:

  • Same-day or 24-hour quote acknowledgment
  • Smart quoting system for fast, accurate pricing
  • Two-business-day turnaround on quotes with SolidWorks files
  • Clear communication so you always know what’s next

Reliable production keeps your line running:

  • Rapid prototyping for design validation
  • Consistent, repeatable quality across all runs
  • Scalable capacity for mid-sized batches or long-term production
  • In-house workflows that minimize handoffs and delays

Whether you’re launching a new product, updating an existing design, or managing steady production volumes, our team delivers the speed, consistency, and dependability OEMs rely on.

Why OEMs Trust LMI

OEMs need fabrication partners who can deliver consistent quality—every part, every batch, every time. That consistency is reinforced by LMI’s ISO 9001 certification, which formalizes our commitment to process control, traceability, and continuous improvement.

With decades of experience and a vertically integrated production floor, LMI provides the precision, reliability, and communication OEMs depend on to keep their products performing and their schedules on track
