Our Core Sheet Metal Capabilities

We support the fabrication routes that matter most in custom sheet metal projects. From prototype parts to repeat production, each process below helps match the right method to the part geometry, quantity, joining needs, and delivery scope.

Fiber laser cutting and precision press brake bending of sheet metal in a flexible, tool-less custom fabrication environment.

Laser Cutting and CNC Bending

Best for prototype parts and low-volume production when you need fast iteration without hard tooling. This route supports precise flat profiles and formed geometry with efficient changeovers.

CNC turret punching and progressive die metal stamping process for high-speed, scalable sheet metal fabrication.

CNC Punching and Stamping

Best for repeatable medium-to-high volume parts, especially perforated panels, brackets, and components that benefit from tooling efficiency and forming speed.

Multi-axis CNC wire bending and custom wire shaping process executing synchronized dimensional control for industrial components.

Wire Forms and Support Components

Useful when your assembly needs clips, retainers, guards, or custom wire parts that fit alongside the sheet metal structure. Keeping these parts coordinated in-house helps simplify procurement and assembly planning.

Automated robotic arm MIG and TIG welding process executing structural joining on heavy-duty sheet metal frames.

Welding and Structural Joining

Used when parts need rigid assembly, local reinforcement, or sealed joints. We review joint type, distortion risk, and appearance requirements so the welding path matches the final function and finish.

Pneumatic hardware insertion and self-clinching process installing threaded studs and nuts into laser-cut thin sheet metal.

Hardware Insertion

Helps create reliable threads and fastening points in thin sheet metal, including PEM nuts, studs, and standoffs. This is often the cleanest way to prepare parts for later assembly.

Post-machining surface finishing and mechanical final assembly process on the factory floor for ready-to-integrate sheet metal structures.

Finishing and Final Assembly

Supports the handoff from fabricated parts to shipment-ready assemblies. Surface finishing, labeling, mechanical assembly, and pack-out can be coordinated together to reduce rework and downstream handling.

Cost-Effective Sheet Metal Production Across Batch Sizes

For orders from 10+ parts through small, medium, and larger production batches, laser cutting and CNC bending provide a flexible, cost-effective route without part-specific tooling. Send your drawings to compare the right process route for your geometry, material, finish, and volume requirements.

Material Options for Sheet Metal Parts

Choose the material around the part’s strength, corrosion, weight, appearance, and cost requirements. Share the material grade, thickness, finish, and quantity with your drawing so we can review the most suitable fabrication route for your project.

Material Common applications Planning considerations
Carbon steel Brackets, frames, supports, and machine covers Specify grade, thickness, and coating or plating requirements
Stainless steel Corrosion-resistant enclosures, covers, and clean-finish assemblies Define finish direction, visible surfaces, and weld-cleanup expectations
Aluminum Lightweight panels, housings, and formed assemblies Confirm alloy, temper, finish, and bend-sensitive features
Galvanized steel Electrical enclosures, protective covers, and industrial structures Review joining method, exposed edges, and post-process handling
Copper / brass Conductive components and appearance-critical parts Define protection, cosmetic requirements, and packing expectations

Sheet Metal Fabrication FAQ

What file formats should I send for a sheet metal RFQ?

Send the current revision of your 2D PDF drawing as the primary reference. Include a STEP or STP file for formed parts or assemblies when available, and add DXF or DWG files when flat-profile details need clarification.

Can you review a part before the design is finalized?

If the part is still in development, send the current drawing and identify the areas where you need manufacturing feedback. Include the intended material, quantity, critical features, and target finish so the review can focus on the decisions that affect the next revision.

Can welding and assembly be included?

Include weld locations, joint appearance expectations, installed hardware, cleanup requirements, and any mechanical assembly steps in your RFQ. This helps define whether these operations should be included in the fabrication scope.

Can you support prototype and repeat-production requirements?

State whether the request is for prototype validation, a pilot batch, or repeat production, and include the expected quantity path where known. This helps distinguish the quotation and planning requirements for each stage.

What finish options can be included in a quotation?

Finish requirements can include powder coating, anodizing, plating, brushing, bead blasting, labeling, and protective film. Specify the applicable standard, color, gloss, texture, visible surfaces, and any masked areas with your drawing.

How should critical dimensions be identified?

Mark the dimensions and interfaces that control fit, function, appearance, or assembly acceptance. Include datum references, bend-related interfaces, cosmetic faces, and any features requiring verification.

What affects a sheet metal quotation?

Material, thickness, part geometry, bend count, welding scope, hardware, finish, quantity, inspection requirements, and packing specifications all affect the fabrication route and quotation. Send these details together where possible.

Can export packing be included for finished assemblies?

Include protective separation, labeling, carton or pallet requirements, destination handling needs, and any finished-part protection requirements in your RFQ. This allows packing to be considered as part of the delivery scope.
