Industrial Engineering & Design in Birmingham, AL
Jones Machine and Welding provides industrial engineering and design for Birmingham and Jefferson County from our shop in Oakman, about 43 miles away. Since 1971, industrial customers have relied on us for quality, dependability and a customer‑first approach.
Engineering for Birmingham Industry
Birmingham, the largest city in Jefferson County, grew up around iron and steel and remains a hub for steel, manufacturing and industrial operations across central Alabama.
Our four experienced engineers focus on practical, real‑world solutions that move projects from concept to completion with clarity and confidence.
Typical work includes design-build structures, transfer chutes, reverse-engineered replacement parts, platforms and stairs, and custom equipment. Designs are optimized for fabrication and installation because the same company builds and installs them.
For existing equipment and structures, 3D laser scanning and precision measurement let us capture accurate as-built conditions before we design a modification or replacement.
Our Engineering Capabilities
- Four experienced in-house engineers
- Design-build packages, concept drawings and structural steel detailing
- Reverse engineering with 3D laser scanning and metrology-grade scanning
- Transfer chute design and material flow analysis
- Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and stress analysis
- AutoCAD, Advance Steel, Tekla and Autodesk Inventor
Serving Birmingham from Oakman
I-22 connects our Oakman shop with Birmingham, so we can pick up and deliver parts across the metro area and send crews to plants around the city. We offer flexible pickup and delivery solutions designed to meet your needs — from small components to large, heavy industrial parts. Our transportation team can coordinate fast pickup and delivery to keep your project moving without delays.
Along with Birmingham itself, we work with customers in nearby communities including Fairfield, Tarrant, Homewood, Hoover, Pinson and Gardendale.
Our shop is open Monday through Friday, 6 AM to 2:30 PM at 309 Plant St, Oakman, AL 35579.
How We Work With Birmingham Customers
We start with your drawings, precision measurements or a 3D laser scan of existing equipment and structures in Birmingham, AL.
Our engineers model the design in 3D and run stress analysis, FEA and material flow analysis where needed.
You get detailed drawings and fabrication plans, with full-color renderings so you can see the project at every stage.
Because we also fabricate, machine and install, the design moves straight into production under one roof.
