Build-to-Print Custom Machinery Services
IST Precision offers build-to-print custom machinery services for clients who have complete engineering documentation and need a capable, detail-driven partner to bring their equipment to life. Our team specializes in assembling complex machines from provided CAD files, mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, and part lists, executed with precision, quality control, and project accountability.
We support OEMs, automation integrators, and engineering firms that need a reliable build partner for one-off or low-volume machinery.

What We Build
If your team provides the design, we provide the execution. Our capabilities include:
Assembly of full mechanical systems from CAD and print packages
Electrical integration based on supplied wiring diagrams and control documentation
Fabrication and machining of custom parts in-house (as needed or per spec)
Procurement of components and hardware to match your BOM
Functional testing and debug in collaboration with your engineering team
Final machine packaging and delivery for deployment at your site
