Validus Group Inc.
Machine Shop · Fabrication · Automation Support
Serving Fort Wayne & Warsaw, Indiana
Industrial machining, fabrication, and automation support that ships on time and works on the floor.
Practical builds, production tooling, and onsite repair/consulting support for OEMs and plants in Northeast Indiana.
Validus Group supports manufacturing teams with precision machining, fabrication, and
automation-adjacent mechanical solutions. We focus on clear scope, functional requirements, and
maintainable outcomes—whether you need a fast-turn fixture, a retrofit bracket that stops a chronic failure,
or on-site help stabilizing a line-impact problem.
Machine Shop — Precision Machining & Production Parts
Precision components and repeatable production parts with practical inspection notes aligned to function.
We support prototypes through sustained runs and prioritize clear CTQs and revision control.
Tags: precision machining · production parts · tight tolerances · revision control · inspection notes
Fabrication — Frames, Guards, Brackets, and Industrial Hardware
Fabricated assemblies and shop-built hardware that integrates cleanly into real equipment—designed for serviceability,
fit-up, and durability in production environments.
Fixtures and tooling that reduce variation and rework: locating/alignment strategies, poka-yoke concepts, and
“no-surprises” setups that stabilize cycle time and quality.
Build-ready equipment and integration hardware—mechanical interfaces, mounts, sensor/actuator brackets,
guards, and production tooling that fits the process and the machine.
Scope fast using constraints (space, load, stroke, interfaces, safety, uptime impact)
Build to function with practical DFM input and maintainable design choices
Control revisions so engineering, maintenance, and procurement stay aligned
Onsite Industrial Consulting & Repairs
When the issue is line-impact and time-sensitive, we can support on site with practical troubleshooting and mechanical repair solutions.
Failure-mode driven fixes (stop the repeat offender, not just the symptom)
Mechanical retrofits and upgrades to improve uptime and serviceability
Fixture/tooling redesign to reduce variation, scrap, and operator burden
Documentation support: basic handoff notes, photos, and revision tracking
