Custom cable-management fabrication for Ireland
LIFA coordinated fabrication from engineering drawings for an Irish project, halving the quoted lead time and achieving installation without rework.
- The buyer
- A Dublin, Ireland integrator supplying cable management for data center fit-outs.
- The product scope
- Custom steel cable trays and baskets; 40,000 pieces, powder-coated RAL-matched.
What needed to change?
Local fabricators quoted 14-week lead times; previous imports arrived with inconsistent hole patterns that broke assembly jigs.
How LIFA managed the work
We converted engineering drawings into a production-ready spec sheet with tolerances.
We verified 4 fabricators on CNC capability and coating quality.
We produced first-article samples for jig fitting before mass production.
We managed staged delivery to match the site installation schedule.
Lead time 7 weeks; first-article fit confirmed; zero rework on site; installation completed 2 weeks ahead of program.
From our company project database, with the work, approvals and results shown together.
What this project shows
The first article had to fit the buyer's assembly jig. Tolerances, hole patterns and staged deliveries made the drawings useful on the factory floor.
