Memorial Day Weekend

We hope you have a great weekend with family & friends. Please take some time to remember those who gave their lives for our country and our freedoms. Just a reminder that LJ Fabricators will be closed on Monday, May 31st in honor of all those that served our great country.
Armed Forces Day 2021

While Veterans’ Day celebrates the service of all U.S. military veterans, and Memorial Day honors those who had died while in military, Saturday, May 15th is Armed Forces Day. President Truman led the effort for this national holiday that honors those currently serving in the U.S. military. LJ Fabricators recognizes all of you and thanks you for your service. You are appreciated more than you know.
Happy Mother’s Day!

This weekend we celebrate the special women in all of our lives. Thank you for all you do. Wishing you all a very warm & happy Mother’s Day!
Bending Metal Every Day

LJ Fabricators is equipped to help you with your next bending project. Our bending technology allows us to fabricate parts with a simple 90° bend or complex with 20+ bends. We have (6) press brakes in-house with capabilities up to 352 ton and 13′ lengths. In addition, we utilize offline programming. This minimizes errors and allows the operator to efficiently pull up the bending program and get to work immediately. Watch VIDEO on our website learn more. CONTACT us today for your next project!
Thank You Admins!

Happy Administrative Professionals’ Day! It takes the entire team to make a business run, but a special thanks to all of you that hold everything together and keep it running smoothly. Know that you are appreciated.
MIG Welding Technology

At LJ Fabricators, we take pride in keeping up with technology in both our techniques as well as our equipment. Watch this short video to see our MIG welding technology in action. The piece being welded is 1/4″ A36 steel. Notice that there is no weld splatter. In addition, grinding is kept to a minimum (nearly entire weld was cleaned up using only a wire brush). When you look closely, you will also see the consistency in the weld bead and minimal weld distortion.

Happy Easter!

LJ Fabricators will be closed today in observance of Good Friday. We are thankful for Easter Sunday and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful weekend! #ljfabricators #ljfab #Easter #metalfabrication #rockfordil #usa
Live Virtual Tours!

They say hindsight is 20/20… and we’re glad 2020 is in our hindsight! We have missed our regular face-to-face visits with existing customers and the opportunity to meet new customers in person. However, challenges bring innovation – LJ Fabricators is excited to share that we are now offering Live Virtual Tours! Our doors are always open, but if you are unable to make it to our facility due to proximity, company protocol, or just limited time, contact us to schedule a virtual visit. We will sit down together via video conference and then walk with you through our shop LIVE where you can see our latest technology, ask specific product/project related questions, or get visual updates on existing projects in progress. Contact our Sales Engineer Michael Riley today to schedule your visit. Looking forward to meeting with you soon!
Happy First Day of Spring!

Saturday, March 20th marks the first day of Spring 2021. And just like everyone else, all of us at LJ Fabricators are excited for warmer weather, leaves on the trees, and new metal projects. Have a great weekend and we look forward to working with you on your next project!
From Start to “Finish”

During the laser cutting or punching process, a burr may form along the edge of the material and need to be removed. LJ Fabricators offers a number of in-house processes to put the finishing touch on the edges of your products. This removal process is achieved with either manual deburr tools or deburring equipment. Watch a short FINISHING PROCESSES VIDEO on our website to learn more. Just another important detail that we provide on every piece every day. If you have questions, CONTACT us today.
