Growing demand doesn’t always mean growing capacity.

For data centre and IT infrastructure programmes, that gap is becoming more common.

Alpha Manufacturing supports teams by acting as a true extension of internal manufacturing capability, whether that’s scaling production during peak demand or delivering complete turnkey projects.

Working alongside suppliers and global technology brands, we manufacture, assemble and integrate cabinets and enclosures across a range of technical requirements, from high-volume repeat builds to complex, fully integrated systems.

Our capability spans the full process, from design and engineering to fabrication, assembly, integration, testing, and final delivery.

Supported by a dedicated assembly facility and in-house quality teams, every stage is controlled to ensure consistency, accuracy and reliable outcomes.

If you’re planning upcoming projects and capacity is a constraint, it’s worth a conversation.

We recently had the pleasure of hosting a customer open day at Alpha Manufacturing, alongside customers from our sister company, HEX Living.

The day was designed to showcase our capabilities and facilities, beginning with a full site tour. Guests were able to explore our machinery and processes in detail, gaining a deeper understanding of how we operate and what sets us apart.

It was a great opportunity for customers to see first-hand the care, precision, and quality that goes into every product we produce, as well as view a range of completed products up close.
The day concluded at Eaton Hall with clay pigeon shooting, offering a relaxed environment to continue conversations and build relationships.

Overall, it was a fantastic opportunity for collaboration and engagement, and we were delighted to receive such positive feedback from everyone who attended.

From Prototype to Production: First Self-Scanner Units Completed

Alpha Manufacturing has completed the first units of a new Self-Scanner design, fully manufactured, coated, and assembled in-house before being shipped to their final home in Europe by our customer.

These multi unit builds mark the start of a wider production run and reflect our ability to progress smoothly from prototype to scalable manufacturing. The project brings together a broad range of processes, including laser cutting, folding, component insertion, and stud and TIG welding of stainless steel parts.

The finished units feature a durable powder-coated structure with a grained and polished stainless-steel top section. Custom mounting components were also produced to accommodate the customer’s external fittings and wiring requirements.

From fabrication through to final assembly, this project highlights Alpha Manufacturing’s end to end capabilities and attention to detail on a first of its kind design.

👉 From first-off builds to full production runs.

What if smarter design could reduce costs before manufacturing even begins?

At Alpha Manufacturing, flexibility is built into our approach through Design for Manufacturing (DFM), helping customers optimise designs early for efficient, reliable, and cost-effective production.

DFM focuses on key manufacturability factors such as material selection and dimensional tolerances. Addressing these early enables lower production costs, improved product quality, and reduced material waste, while also supporting faster product delivery.

By proactively resolving manufacturability challenges during the design stage, customers benefit from higher yields and a reduced risk of redesigns, all while keeping manufacturing costs under control.

The result is greater flexibility throughout the production process and stronger outcomes for our customers.
