About Us

Custom sheet metal fabrication is very important to modern industrial manufacturing processes worldwide. To a certain extent, almost every industrial sector relies on custom products made from sheet metal materials. Metal fabricators begin by selecting from stock metal or metal alloy materials and then use the advanced technology at their disposal to shape them into custom parts. This includes a range of automated technologies such as cutting, bending, welding and stamping, just to name a few, that are used to create custom parts with precision.

Custom Sheet Metal Fabrication

Sheet metal fabrication is the process of converting flat sheet materials into custom parts and components for the construction of products, machines and structures. It is a broad term describing a number of manufacturing techniques that include deforming the material into a desired geometry, such as stamping or bending, or selectively removing the material through subtractive processes such as cutting or stamping. The latter reduces the volume of the material, while the former simply reshapes the material without affecting the volume of the material.

Sheet metal products come from a number of familiar stock metal materials. The selection of these depends on the mechanical properties required for the product application. Some of the more commonly used materials are.

• Aluminum: For its light weight, strength, durability and good performance at lower temperatures, which is part of the reason for its use in the aerospace, automotive, HVAC and refrigeration industries.
• Stainless steel:is praised for its strength, durability, bio-hygienic compatibility and corrosion resistance. Some of its more prominent applications can be found in construction and architecture, medical equipment, and food and kitchen equipment.
• Brass: Lightweight and resistant to corrosion. It has useful acoustical properties, but is more commonly found in fittings and related components, from door handles to hinges.
• Copper: Known for its ductility, it is malleable and is known for its electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance.

Applications for Custom Fabrication

Custom fabricated products using sheet metal are essential to industries such as:

• Automotive
• Aerospace
• Construction
• Electrical
• Electronics
• Household Appliances
• Medical

Custom sheet metal fabrication is critical in the manufacture of countless commercial, industrial and household items, as well as products, parts and components of all shapes and sizes. Sheet metal is formed from a variety of metals and alloys and is then used in a variety of different applications, from surgical instruments and pots and pans to electronic components, auto bodies and machinery.
