Our team is trained to review and manage the most sophisticated welding requirements. These projects often require documented processes, certified welders, and complex inspections. We have the systems and procedures in place to meet the most strict procedure compliance requirements. Anderson Dahlen is proficient in the MIG, TIG, Submerged Arc, and Plasma arc welding process.
With over 80 certified welders on staff and over 400 qualified weld procedures on file we can offer you the quality you demand for your most critical weldments.
Anderson Dahlen has specialized in certified welding services to the capital equipment market for the past 30 years. We have developed a team of trained professionals who are qualified in a variety of both AWS and ASME weld procedures. We also have two full time AWS certified level II weld inspectors on staff.
Anderson Dahlen, Inc. is a certified ASME pressure vessel manufacturer. We hold the U, R and UM stamps. We have qualified procedures for a wide variety of materials including but not limited to carbon steel, aluminum alloys, stainless steels, and other high nickel alloys. From straight-forward in position fillet and butt welds to complex out of position welding, Anderson Dahlen, Inc. has the qualifications and systems in place to meet your most demanding welding expectations.
We have one of the largest CNC lathes in the upper Midwest. It was installed in 2012 and it gives us the ability to turn with precision parts that are up to 315.50″ long and 51.0″ in diameter. The machine features live tooling on the turret so we can drill and tap holes as well as mill slots.
Our horizontal milling capabilities stand out as well. We have three machines with the largest being able to handle parts that are up to 160″ in length, 100″ in width and 60″ tall. All of our horizontal machines have rotary tables that allow us to cut while rotating the part.
We have the only vertical turning lathe in Minnesota with live tooling. This gives us the flexibility to turn and mill using the same set-up on large rings and flanges. This is definitely a competitive advantage when turning large parts that require milling.
We can be your one stop shop for large projects that require parts to be fabricated from plate, welded and then machined prior to assembly. We often work on parts that need to be welded then machined then welded again to complete the part. The ability to do this all in one shop greatly reduces the time it takes to complete the part and eliminates the need for the part to be shipped back and forth to subcontractors.
Our shop is climate controlled and all our machines are supported with overhead cranes. In our high bay area we have the ability to handle parts that weigh up to 20 tons. We are ISO 9001-2015 certified and have a robust quality control team dedicated to meeting all of your inspection requirements.
We differentiate ourselves from our peers through two significant ways – our unique services and our skilled craftsmen.
While specializing in supplying fabrication services to the capital equipment market for the last 30 years, we have developed a team of trained professionals who are able to set up and run each job independently. Because we don’t do long runs of production parts, all of our fabricators need to be skilled in all aspects of the fabrications process. They are much more than just machine operators.
Everything starts with good layout. Our CAD team breaks down the fabrications into their individual parts. They are then routed to the cutting process that best suits the part’s requirements.
Our water jet table is one of the largest in the Midwest at 13 feet wide by 32 feet long. It can cut a wide variety of materials up to 24 inches thick, and the table is serviced with a crane capable of handling parts weighing up to ten tons.
Once cut, the parts typically move into our forming department. We have seven press brakes with the largest having 500 tons of forming power.
You guys do spectacular work such perfectly polished seams! Thank you for getting it overnight-ed to me. Anderson Dahlen is first on my list to get the special things done from here on out. Tim, Wonder Works Unlimited
Thank you to you and your team who assisted me during my visit. Both the customer and I were hugely impressed with everything from start to finish. The actual FATs were one of the smoothest that I have experienced in 20 years. I look forward to working with you in the future. Martin Kelly, Thermo Fisher
We want to let you know how much Brian and I appreciate you, Greg, Nathan, and the rest of the Anderson Dahlen team for helping us to complete the test assembly and collect the test data on time during our visit. Your help truly exceeded our expectations. We thank you for showing us your manufacturing plants. Vincent Lee, Plasma-Therm NES
Thank you to Gary and the fabricators who helped us remove the scratch and refinishing our aluminum part. You saved us a ton of time and kept us on track for an on time delivery to our customer. We definitely owe you one! Clint Bitterman, VP-Co Owner of Master Tool & Mfg Inc.
Their willingness to spin a large part well off axis made it possible. Their attention to detail made it a success. Equally praiseworthy is their communication during the manufacturing process, assuring the best part. John Rogers, Engineering Technician Lead, University of Washington Dept. of Aeronautics & Astronautics
