Not Just Joining Metal — Improving How Equipment Operates

Most welding companies focus on joining metal. Gear Heads focuses on how equipment operates within the production line. Our fabrication work is driven by real maintenance experience — identifying weak points, recurring failures, and access limitations, then fabricating solutions that improve reliability, sanitation, and serviceability.

Fabrication That Solves Real Equipment Problems

Our fabrication and modification services are often used to correct design issues, strengthen weak points, and improve how equipment integrates into the production line.

Redesigning components that repeatedly fail

Adding guards and supports to improve safety

Reinforcing equipment subject to vibration or load

Improving access for maintenance and cleaning

Modifying conveyors and material flow paths

Why Fabrication & Modifications Matter

Well-designed fabrication reduces downtime, improves safety, and extends equipment life. By addressing root causes instead of temporary fixes, facilities gain more reliable and maintainable systems.

Improved equipment reliability

Reduced repeat failures

Enhanced safety and compliance

Better maintenance access

Increased production efficiency

Safety in Regulated Environments

Fabrication and welding activities are executed with controls in place to protect personnel, equipment, and surrounding operations. All work is planned and coordinated to meet safety, hygiene, and operational requirements in regulated industrial and food & beverage facilities.

Hot work controls

Equipment & process protection

Area isolation & coordination

Fabrication as Part of a Complete Maintenance Strategy

Fabrication and equipment modifications often support preventive, corrective, and emergency maintenance efforts. Our work is designed to integrate seamlessly with ongoing maintenance programs to improve long-term reliability.
