Expert metal fabricators
JC Metalworks is known for its expertise in metal fabrication. Our advanced CNC machinery and carefully programmed processes allow us to achieve precise cuts and bends, resulting in high-quality metal components.
Our skilled team of engineers and operatives follows strict quality control measures to guarantee that each component for vending and dispensing machines is crafted to exact specifications for seamless integration and optimal performance.
Prototyping and value engineering
Our commitment to value engineering boosts the efficiency of our solutions. We analyse and optimise designs to maximise functionality and cost-effectiveness while maintaining high quality. Our expertise in designing metal components to meet unique requirements is a critical aspect of our capabilities.
Our design engineers use advanced software to create precise 3D models, enabling accurate manufacturing. This includes adapting to various dimensions, load capacities, and specific functional specifications, ensuring seamless alignment with the intended machine design.
To ensure that our metal components meet and exceed expectations in real-world applications, we produce prototypes and conduct thorough testing and refinement before final production.
Metal components with enhanced reliability through engineering
JC Metalworks prioritises reliability in every component we produce. This involves our engineers conducting a thorough analysis of stress points, material properties, and environmental factors during the design phase.
We also use various test procedures to simulate real-world conditions, ensuring that each metal component is not only functional but has the necessary structural integrity to withstand prolonged use and environmental stressors.
Experts in precision metal cutting for vending and dispensing systems
Our advanced equipment and skilled technicians ensure accuracy and quality in every metal component we produce. Whether it’s intricate shapes or delicate features, our state-of-the-art fibre laser cutting capabilities can handle it all with high precision.
In addition, our automatic turret punch machine is perfect for producing clean, consistent holes in various thicknesses of metal, making it ideal for frames, housings, and structural components.
We have two Amada fibre laser cutting Machines and two Amada punch machines, capable of processing large amounts of material per week including stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminium up to 4 meters in length. The latest technology allows the machines to run for days with full automation, selecting materials and stacking finished parts without manual intervention.
Unmatched design flexibility
Our bending and forming capabilities enable us to create custom shapes and structures to meet specific metalworks required for vending or dispensing systems.
- Precise bends minimise friction and wear, leading to longer-lasting vending and dispensing systems.
- Accurate forming ensures smooth product flow, reducing jams and malfunctions.
- Consistent bending allows for faster production and reduced waste and enhances production efficiency.
We utilise advanced metal bending technology, including three Amada Press Brakes, LVD Ultimate Panel Bending, Salvagini PX4 machines, and an automatic HRB-ATC Amada Press Brake.
We produce a variety of finished metal components for vending and dispensing systems involving different bends, curves, and shapes.
Welding for flawless vending and dispensing systems
Our skilled welders use a range of welding techniques – TIG, MIG, and spot welding – to ensure that every seam is as strong as possible. We offer TIG welding for precise and accurate welds, MIG welding for strong and consistent welds, and spot welding for attaching small components.
Our linishers meticulously grind, blend and polish each join to ensure that the welds for your vending and dispensing systems are not only strong but also visually flawless. This attention to detail ensures that our metal components not only function optimally but also have a professional finish.

Long-lasting finishing for vending and dispensing systems
Our powder coating process offers more than just an attractive finish; it also acts as a protective shield against everyday wear and tear. Powder coats are resistant to scratches, chips, and fading, meaning your vending and dispensing systems will remain vibrant and eye-catching for years to come.
Our cutting-edge ITW Gema Powder Coating System ensures a consistent, high-quality, and scratch-resistant finish. We offer a wide range of colours, textures, and patterns to match your vision, and our coatings are designed to be long-lasting and durable, ensuring your vending and dispensing systems stay beautiful for an extended period.
15,000 sq. feet exclusive assembly area
JC Metalworks offers comprehensive assembly capabilities that synergise with our metal fabrication expertise, resulting in cutting-edge vending and dispensing systems. We not only produce precision metal components but also seamlessly integrate a diverse range of non-metal parts, including electrical components, glass, plastic elements, joinery, vinyl graphics, and innovative lighting solutions. This results in heightened functionality, reliability, and aesthetic appeal.
Entrusting us with the assembly of your project guarantees a streamlined and efficient process, minimising lead times and ensuring a cohesive final product.
Seamless integration for vending and dispensing systems
Achieving seamless integration requires a comprehensive understanding of both mechanical and electronic systems. Our engineers work collaboratively to ensure that metal components, such as hoppers and access panels, integrate seamlessly with the entire machine assembly. This involves precision machining, alignment checks, and iterative testing to guarantee smooth functionality within the overall system.
Forward-thinking design considerations
Anticipating future technological advancements is a cornerstone of our design approach. We incorporate modular design principles and consider potential technological upgrades during the initial design phase. This forward-thinking strategy ensures that your vending and dispensing machine components are adaptable to emerging innovations, extending the lifespan and relevance of your equipment.
Safety at the core
Safety is a paramount consideration in our fabrication process. Metal components undergo rigorous testing, including stress testing, load capacity assessments, and compliance checks with industry safety standards. Our commitment to safety extends to incorporating features like tamper-resistant locking mechanisms and impact-resistant materials into vending and dispensing machines to enhance user and product security.
