Food equipment manufacturing

Star Precision builds stainless steel frames, machines and food-service equipment from a single Houston shop. Fabrication, machining, electronics and assembly under one roof mean we can deliver a complete, tested machine, not just a box of parts, backed by ISO 9001 quality since 1992.

Overview

Stainless equipment and complete machines

Food and food-service brands come to Star Precision for hygienic stainless fabrication and for complete, working machines built and tested in-house.

We fabricate frames, hoppers, guards, panels, enclosures and food-contact components, then machine rollers, knobs and close-tolerance parts, wire and assemble the electronics, and test the finished unit. Our Tortilla Machine build for Tortilla Masters ran fiber laser cutting at over 4,000 in/min, multi-axis lathe work, assembly and functional testing. That is the kind of end-to-end build one Houston supplier can deliver.

Company FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What does Star Precision manufacture?

We are a turnkey contract manufacturer. That means metal fabrication and tube laser cutting, precision CNC machining and Wire EDM, and full electronics manufacturing (PCB assembly, electro-mechanical box build, and cable and wire harness assembly), plus design-for-manufacturability and manufacturing support, all in-house since 1992.

What makes Star Precision a one-stop shop?

Because fabrication, machining and electronics assembly all happen under one roof, we can take a project from raw material and bare board through to a finished, tested and packaged product without handing it off between outside vendors. You get one supplier, one point of contact and one team accountable for the whole build.

Where are you located?

Northwest Houston, Texas, in two facilities. Our Brystone Drive plant (5410 Brystone Drive) houses metal fabrication, and Brittmoore Park Drive (11236 Brittmoore Park Drive) runs machining, electronics and assembly. Both are in Houston, TX 77041.

Are you ISO certified?

Yes. Star Precision is ISO 9001 certified. Our electronics processes are IPC-A-610, IPC/WHMA-A-620 and J-STD-001 certified, with an ESD-safe department, and we use CMM and laser quality inspection for dimensional accuracy.

What materials do you work with?

For fabrication and machining we work in mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper and brass, plus a wide range of electronic components for PCB and electro-mechanical assembly. If you are unsure what suits your part, our team can advise during a design review.

What are your fabrication and machining capabilities?

Sheet metal laser cutting up to 60 x 120 in and up to 1.00 in steel, NC punching and forming on a 220-ton, 14 ft brake, and fiber tube laser cutting of tube up to 30 ft raw and parts up to 236 in. On the machining side we run 5-axis milling, multi-axis turning and Wire EDM, verified by automated CMM inspection.

What electronics assembly do you offer?

SMT, through-hole and mixed-technology PCB assembly, single and double sided, managed by MES software and verified with SPI, AOI, X-ray and functional testing, with conformal coating and potting available. We also build cable and wire harness assemblies and integrate everything into complete electro-mechanical box builds.

Do you handle both prototypes and production?

Yes. We support the full lifecycle, from design-for-manufacturability and prototypes through first article inspection to low and high volume production, so the same partner that helps refine your design can also scale it.

Which industries do you serve?

We build for oil, gas and energy, aerospace and space, defense and military, medical and scientific instruments, electronics, data and telecom, industrial and OEM equipment, architectural metals, food equipment, solar and alternative energy, robotics, automotive, consumer electronics, security and surveillance, agriculture, HVAC and building automation, retail and point of sale, and marine, among others.

Do you fabricate food-grade stainless steel?

Yes. We work in stainless steel 304 and similar, including 22-gauge #3 finish stainless, laser cut and formed to spec.

Can you build a complete machine, not just parts?

Yes. Our Tortilla Machine build combined fiber laser cutting, multi-axis lathe turning, assembly and functional testing, all under one roof.

What machining can you bring to food equipment?

Multi-axis turning and 5-axis milling for rollers, knobs, shafts and other close-tolerance parts, machined from the same shop that builds the frame.

Do you test equipment before shipping?

Yes. We assemble, test and troubleshoot complete machines and confirm they run before packaging and delivery.
