Panel Fabrication
Our UL 508a and UL 698a certified manufacturing facility guarantees exceptional quality and competitive pricing for industrial control panel fabrication. We specialize in turnkey projects and OEMs, accommodating panels of all sizes and production volumes.
Our state-of-the-art Steinhauer Modcenter 293 enables efficient, accurate production with precise panel cutouts and efficient back-panel drilling and tapping.
Upon completion, each panel undergoes a meticulous 42-point quality check, including point-to-point wiring, power testing, and cleanliness inspections. We deliver flawless control panels on time, every time.
Electrical Design Services
Our expert designers use AutoCAD Electrical to create comprehensive, professional drawing packages for a wide range of industrial control panels. We can also create loop diagrams, network diagrams, conveyor layout drawings, and other industry-specific process drawings.
Need support for a system upgrade or facility expansion? We offer on-site documentation services, working closely with technicians to accurately document existing internal and field wiring. For projects in Arizona, we also offer PE-stamped drawings for voltages up to 480VAC.

FAQs
What do I need to consider when designing a UL-508A compliant panel?
UL certifies individual components as either “UL listed” or “UL recognized.” Generally speaking, when designing a UL-508A compliant panel…
- UL-508 listed components can be used freely.
- UL-508 recognized components can be used, but only within the manufacturer’s installation specifications.
- Non-listed components or components that are listed only under different UL standards are not permitted unless followed by a specific process and procedure.

How do I implement redundant PLCs?
First, research the manufacturer and model of PLC to ensure they support full redundancy. In addition to the second PLC, you’ll need a separate rack, separate power supply, and communication cards. Make sure your maintenance staff is trained and practiced in the recovery process after a controller failure. Explore more tips here.
