Acquiring immediate local knowledge, experience and resources can be challenging when you try to expand or do business into another state (NSW in this case), in Australia, or another country. It can be a long process finding buildings, staff, equipment and knowledge that takes years to acquire, all associated with a large amount of expense.
Nowadays, comprehensive manufacturing facilities in the Sydney area are becoming scarce, and sourcing products and materials is getting difficult. This is due to the reduction of many manufacturing businesses over the last decade.
So what is a good option for your business expansion?
Machines need to be designed, manufactured and fitted properly, while installations often need extra supporting infrastructure. Having the local knowledge and labour to source those missing or extra parts is our great advantage.
For over 50 years, C-Mac has been the local manufacturer of high quality engineering products in Western Sydney. With our capability and exceptional workmanship, your engineering and fabrication projects can be completed locally in short lead times.
Apart from serving local businesses, we also provide “Innovative Metal Solutions” to the companies coming from interstate and overseas. For overseas organizations, C-Mac can become your local sales agent in Australia or can manufacture your product components locally to suit "Australian Standard"s and "Fairworks Australia" working conditions.
Partnering up with C-Mac, provides you with comprehensive manufacturing facilities and expertise to support the installation of equipment under your supervision and instruction.
C-Mac manufactures a wide range of equipment in-house to cover all your engineering and fabrication needs.
Spare parts support and maintenance for your machines can also be provided.

*[Owner]* An industrial laundry system service company needed repairs and redesign done to their tooling. C-Mac made changes to the tooling to make access and ease of use to decrease service down times.
*[Service Manager]* An industrial fan service company had a failure of a major shopping centre air conditioning fan/ blower. C-Mac repaired the unit within a 24hr turn around for minimum downtime.
*[Owner/Manager]* A major food manufacturer specializing in tomato sauce had a filling machine breakdown. The machine was brought to C-Mac and repaired in 24hrs for minimum downtime of the production line costing $5,000 per hour.
*[RAAF - Warrant Officer]* Airfield support staff required a portable sandbagging frame and requested a design, prototype and trials at no cost. There was nothing suitable on the market i.e. made in Australia. "Sandbagging Frames":materials-handling/1-bagging-equipment#silt-bagging-frame are now on the national procurement data base and some probably overseas at different war zones.
*[Mechanical Design Engineer]* An automotive transmission design customer needed help with designing an automatic transmission gear prototype. We suggested and engineered a more cost effective and practical way for the mass production stage.
*[Nursery Manager]* At an exhibition saw our self tracking nursery trailers and indicated he had a costly issue transporting large (heavy) pots containing advanced trees. Existing method was a bobcat. C-Mac designed and quoted for the manufacture of a Self Tracking “Low Loader”. His comment on the first day of using "Low Loader trailer":nursery-equipment/7-trailers/#low-loader-self-tracking-trailer “Can now move 100 litre pots with trees, 150 metres in 1 hr and not get a sore back”.
*[Purchasing Officer]* A mining design and machining company needed help with machining components urgently as they were too busy to keep up with the demand. C-Mac machined the components so the deadline could be met.
*[General Manager]* Customer had to submit a proposal and compete against other countries for the manufacturing facility. C-Mac submitted drawings to show there was space in existing plant to install the new process and to comply with all Australian OH&S Standards. Working together with customer to submit proposal to the Head Office overseas WON the contract. Project was a success meeting 6month lead time and budget.
*[Nursery Owner]* Needed a specific Potting & Mixing machine. for his yuccas nursery, but the problem was it was no longer manufactured. From his description and specifications our engineers designed and modelled in 3D software his requirements. "Potting Machine":nursery-equipment/3-potting-machines/ was manufactured and fully tested with potting media in our workshop, video was then sent to customer who was very pleased with the results. Machine disassembled and freighted interstate and installed.
*[Maintenance Engineer]* An industrial hydraulic fitting manufacturer had problems with gear and shaft breakages with their machinery. They also had problems repairing and maintaining. C-Mac offered to repair and maintain their machinery on-site instead of having to permanently employ fitters.
