Every process, what it is for, and where it happens.
A scannable list of what Kimbrell Manufacturing Corporation does in its own Garland shop and what it coordinates through partners. Anything not listed here, such as tolerances or maximum part size, is confirmed on your specific job.

How fast, and how to start.
Kimbrell does not publish a blanket turnaround number. Timing depends on the job, and you get a realistic read before you commit.
Emergency repair
Available for qualifying industrial machining, fabrication and repair needs. Call (214) 227-5633 first so availability, access and timing can be confirmed. The shop is open weekdays from 7:30 AM.
Lead times
Lead time depends on the part, material availability, scope, any outside processes and current shop load. Call or send a drawing, photo or sample and Kimbrell will give a realistic timeline before work begins.
Prototype to production
One-off parts and prototypes are central to the work, and there is no minimum quantity to get a quote. After a part is proven, drawings, programs, tooling and inspection requirements are retained to support repeat production runs and critical spares.
Pickup, delivery, onsite and shipping
Depending on the part, location and timing, Kimbrell can arrange pickup of a failed component and delivery of the finished part. Plant walk-downs and onsite support may be available depending on the project and availability. Completed CNC-machined and waterjet-cut or formed parts ship across the United States.
Tolerances, maximum part size and material traceability are confirmed job by job. Kimbrell does not hold formal quality-system certifications, so if your part needs a certified process or documented material traceability, say so up front and you will get an honest answer on fit.

Quick answers about what Kimbrell can make.
What can Kimbrell Manufacturing do in-house?
Kimbrell runs 3-axis and 4-axis CNC milling, live-tool CNC turning, manual milling and turning, and long-shaft turning up to roughly 160 inches. On the fabrication side it has MIG, TIG and laser welding, a 90,000 PSI waterjet, a 5 x 10 CNC router and press-brake forming. A mechanical engineer and CNC programmers are on staff, so programming and process decisions are made in-house.
Can you make a part if I have no drawing?
Yes. A broken part, worn sample, rough sketch, photo or plant walk-down can be enough to start. Kimbrell evaluates the component, measures the critical features and determines whether repair, reverse engineering or a redesigned replacement is the best path.
Do you offer emergency repair?
Kimbrell offers emergency repair for qualifying industrial machining, fabrication and repair needs. Call (214) 227-5633 first so availability, access and timing can be confirmed. The emergency service is built around a roughly 15-mile radius from the Garland shop.
What materials do you work with?
Metals include carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, tool steels, brass, bronze and other common industrial alloys, subject to project requirements.
