From one-off repairs to the manufacture of repeat components for agricultural machinery, equipment, storage systems and fencing, sheet metalwork can be found throughout almost every part of the agricultural industry.
Yorkshire Profiles manufactures laser cut, folded and fabricated components for agricultural equipment manufacturers, repair businesses, farms and associated industries. Whether you need a replacement bracket for an existing machine or batches of repeat components for new equipment, we can manufacture parts directly from drawings, CAD files or existing components.
Anywhere you see a metal bracket, plate, guard, panel or framework on agricultural equipment, there is a good chance that it could be produced using the same laser cutting and fabrication processes available at Yorkshire Profiles.

Materials for Agricultural Components
Much of the sheet metalwork used throughout agriculture is manufactured from mild steel because of its strength, availability and suitability for welding and fabrication. Galvanised steel is also widely used where components will regularly be exposed to rain, mud, livestock environments or other harsh outdoor conditions.
Depending on the application, we can also manufacture agricultural components from stainless steel, aluminium and other sheet materials.
Because Yorkshire Profiles supplies components across a wide range of industries, we routinely stock numerous sheet thicknesses and material grades. Where a particular material is not already available from stock, our purchasing volumes allow us to source material competitively.
Laser Cutting and Fabrication for Agricultural Equipment
Agricultural components can involve considerably more than simply cutting a shape from steel. Depending on the component, we can provide additional manufacturing processes including:
- CNC laser cutting
- Press brake forming
- Drilling
- Tapping and threaded holes
- Countersinking
- Deburring and edge finishing
- Welding and fabrication
- Powder coating
- Additional protective finishes
Deburring is commonly specified for agricultural parts to remove sharp edges and produce safer, cleaner components. Powder coating can then provide an attractive and durable finish suitable for machinery, equipment, brackets, guards and fabricated assemblies.
One-Off Agricultural Repairs and Repeat Production
Agricultural equipment is expected to work in demanding conditions, and damaged or obsolete components can sometimes bring an otherwise serviceable machine to a standstill.
We can manufacture one-off replacement parts where original components are damaged or no longer readily available. If you have an existing component, drawing or suitable dimensions, we can often recreate the part rather than requiring an entire assembly to be replaced.
At the other end of the scale, we work with equipment manufacturers requiring repeat batches of laser cut and folded agricultural components. Once a component has been established, repeat orders can be manufactured consistently to the same specification.
This makes our service suitable for everything from an individual repair plate or replacement bracket through to ongoing production of components used in agricultural machinery and equipment.
Whether you manufacture agricultural machinery, maintain plant and equipment, build trailers and livestock systems or simply need a difficult-to-source replacement component, Yorkshire Profiles can help.
