Scan to ship.
One vendor, one digital thread.
Autofac takes a fluid system from field condition to flight-ready hardware in one facility: 3D scan, CNC bend, certified weld, inspect, precision clean, ship. Days, not months.

Fluid systems are the veins of the economy. We build them end to end.
Fuel, coolant, hydraulics, water, gas, cryogenics. Fluid lines run through every building, every city, and every machine, and when they fail, everything stops.
Today a single system can touch five vendors before it ships, with nobody accountable end to end. Autofac is one facility, one process, and one digital thread from the as-built condition on site to the finished, install-ready assembly.
Scan to ship. One process, start to finish.
A rocket fuel line, a ship's seawater main, a reactor loop, and a data center cooling header are treated as four different industries. They are one process: measure, bend, weld, inspect, clean.
- 01
On-site 3D scan
We capture as-built geometry in the field to sub-millimeter accuracy. No tape measures, no redraws.
- 02
Build print
The scan auto-generates the fabrication drawing. The digital thread starts here and never breaks.
- 03
CNC bend
Tube and pipe formed directly from the model. No manual layout, no fit-up guesswork.
- 04
Weld
TIG, orbital, and laser, matched to the joint. Repeatable, certified welds with full parameter capture.
- 05
NDT + X-ray
Inspection in-house, not weeks at an outside vendor. Every joint traceable.
- 06
Precision clean
Oxygen and high-purity service ready, cleaned and packaged for installation.
- 07
Ship
Installed fit guaranteed by the scan. One vendor. One digital thread. Days, not months.
Aerospace precision. Spool-shop throughput.

Our quoting engine prices new work from our own production history, so you get an answer in hours, not weeks. Send us a drawing, a model, or a photo of what's on site and we'll take it from there.
Built by people who built the standard.
Autofac was founded by Blake Mouser, who spent a decade building flight-critical fluid systems at SpaceX, Blue Origin, Firefly Aerospace, and Tesla. Hands-on across welding, machining, automation, and metrology, AWS D17.1 and D1.2 certified, and deep in Inconel, titanium, and aluminum.
