Processes
From blank to formed and assembled part, combined to suit your design. One drawing, one complete part.
Laser cutting
Waterjet cutting
Thick plate and special materials
Cold cutting with no heat-affected zone, ideal for distortion-sensitive parts
CNC bending
Flanges, U-shapes and boxes
Precise bends from the flat pattern, combined into complex forms
Welding, riveting and PEM hardware
TIG and spot welding, press-in nuts and studs, assembled into complete parts
Why sheet metal
No tooling needed, short lead times and a good balance of strength and weight.
-
01
No tooling
Parts are cut and bent straight from sheet, so there is no mold cost or wait, and design changes go into the very next batch.
-
02
Strong yet light
Flanges and ribs add stiffness, so thinner sheet can still give the strength you need.
-
03
Flexible structures
Bending, welding and hardware insertion combine into enclosures, cabinets and other multi-face parts.
-
04
Many finishes
Powder coating, anodizing, plating and silk screening for both cosmetic and structural parts.
Where sheet metal fits
-
Enclosures and cabinets
Equipment housings, control cabinets and power supply cases built from several panels.
-
Brackets and structural parts
Mounting brackets, connectors and stiffening plates that need strength without extra weight.
-
Panels and prototypes
Control panels, covers and new product prototypes that can move straight into small batches.

What is sheet metal fabrication?
Sheet metal fabrication turns metal sheet (usually under 6mm, though thicker is possible) into parts by cutting, bending, welding and hardware insertion. Wall thickness stays uniform, which suits enclosures, boxes and brackets made of flat faces.
Compared with CNC machining, nothing is cut from a solid block, so material use is high and cost is low, especially for large parts with uniform walls. Compared with injection molding, there is no mold, so prototypes and small batches are more flexible. Following design rules such as bend radius and hole-to-bend distance makes parts easier and cheaper to make.
