Sheet Metal Fabrication Finishing Options

Sheet metal fabricated parts are left as manufactured. There will be visible tooling marks on the part.

A surface smoothing operation that involves the direction of fine glass beads at a part’s surface under high pressure. Bead blasting creates a smooth, uniform surface finish on the part.

Galvanized, one type of galvanization, involves applying a thin layer of zinc metal onto the surface of another metal through a process known as electrodeposition.

Electrically conductive sheet metal parts may be coated with colored powder paint after fabrication to deliver a dry, melted and hardened finish to a part. Very suitable for workpieces that need textures that may not be achievable using wet painting.

This involves the deposition of a thin chromium layer onto a metal part through an electroplating process. The chromium layer may serve decorative functions, make the part anti-corrosion or improve the surface hardness.

An array of custom finishes are also available for your part depending on material and purpose of the end-use part.

Sheet Metal Fabrication Service Overview

Sheet metal fabrication is a set of manufacturing processes used to turn sheet metal stock into functional parts. The sheet metal is usually between 0.1mm and 6mm in thickness.

Sheet metal fabrication is the process of forming the desired parts from a metal sheet. Several processes fall under sheet metal fabrication, including cutting, bending, punching, forming,welding, and shearing.

Sheet metal fabrication solutions present businesses with a rapid and cost-effective method of producing low to high-volume parts. The variety of metal processing techniques under sheet metal fabrication means that simple or complex parts can be made to specifications under tight tolerances, more precision for cutting/bending ranges, and an array of materials to choose in production.

We have a group of reliable casting partners who fulfill our casting needs, and we use low-cost 3D printed wax patterns to reduce the price for the customer.

Metal casting can be used to make very huge parts with high tensile strength and complex parts with undercuts. Sometimes there is no alternative.

During the sheet metal fabrication process, thin sheet metal stock is placed on a flat bed where a laser cutter  draws programmed part patterns. Depending on the part geometry, a sheet metal punch  can form additional features. Once the parts are deburred, they move to the press brake where they are formed into the final geometries.
