What is hardware insertion?

Hardware insertion is one aspect of the precision sheet metal fabrication process. It uses pre-cut holes to precisely attach fasteners and other hardware to metal components. This process uses compression force and ensures precision placement. It is an essential step prior to assembling a product.

Northstar’s hardware insertion machinery offers consistency and accuracy. This ensures the highest quality standards and conformance for each and every product and leads to reduced costs and improved efficiency for our customers.

Further, Northstar understands that an effective and efficient hardware insertion program requires highly trained and skilled team members. To that end, Northstar is proud to employ a hardware insertion team with exhaustive fabrication experience and knowledge, with a focus on continuous improvement and training.
