Automated innovation

As Dalsin Industries ( Dalsin ) nears its 80th anniversary , VP of Operations Nicole Blanco-Goff , provides a brief history of the company : “ We ’ re a metal manufacturing business based in Bloomington , Minnesota . The three Dalsin brothers , who each specialized in a different aspect of the metal industry , founded the company out of their garage . We focus on providing metal processing solutions for our customers , involving anything that can be punched , bent , welded , and painted . We combine automation with the art of manufacturing . As an engineer myself , I always say manufacturing is a science but there ’ s still a bit of an art to it . There ’ s passion involved with making a product . With eight decades in the industry , we ’ ve been able to grow with automation , but also have that extra magic when we build our products .”
