Frequently Asked Question on Metal Fabrication

What does Metal Fabrication Mean?

Fabrication in itself means creating an item of a certain shape and size from the given raw material. Metal fabrication is a process that involves making certain metal parts from a metal sheet. This process involves cutting, bending, forming, welding, machining, folding punching, drilling, and other steps depending upon the requirement. So, basically, it is about molding the given metal in the desired shape and size, regardless of the steps carried out to achieve it. Although fabrication has mostly been a manual process, nowadays automation is widely implemented. The process begins with the client requirement and then turning it into a drawing. Based on the drawing, the steps involved are chalked out at a fabrication shop or the fabrication unit of a manufacturing industry. Each of these steps requires specific skills and trained people to achieve precision.

What is Custom Metal Fabrication?

Like in any product, customization is key to meeting the client requirements accurately. This requires not just precision but also uniformity. Metal sheets are customized to form certain parts according to client’s specifications. You could use either sheet metal or structural metal such as angles and beams to make the final product or component. Even if you have your own metal products they can be customized as well. Custom metal fabrication is more of a client-focused process and hence quality is of paramount importance.

It is also important to test the functioning of the customized products by using standard testing methods to check the tolerances, dimensions, finishes, uniformity, and so on. Getting the required certifications for the same always helps in increasing your credibility. One must also ensure that the fabrication facility is upgraded and has advanced equipment to customize the most complex and smallest parts and components.

Why is Fabrication Necessary?

Metal fabrication has been there and prevalent since centuries. Back then it was used to make tools and jewelry. However, now it has gained further significance and become an integral part of our daily lives, be it infrastructure, tools and equipment, automotive, electronics, and more. It is necessary because without that it would have been impossible to make huge metal pipes and rods used in building roads, bridges, and buildings. Fabrication is as much an art as science. This is basically because it requires an artistic aptitude as much as knowledge of metals, tools, dimensions, and skills. So, fabrication is and will always remain important because we cannot even imagine our modern lives without that.

Where is Custom Metal Fabrication Applicable?

As mentioned, fabrication is required in almost all industries. Here are some industries which require fabricated storage units:

• Construction
• Automotive
• Rubber
• Textiles
• Distribution and warehousing
• Defense
• Chemicals
• Recycling
• Agriculture

What are the Benefits of Metal Fabrication?

• Metal fabrication helps achieve long-lasting results in the final product as metals are strong and heat resistant. Some of the old bridges and certain architectural monuments made or fabricated metal stand tall even after hundreds of years. So, fabrication offers amazing durability to the product.
• Fabricated metal parts hardly require maintenance or repairs. So, we can safely say that it is cost-effective in the long run.
• There is so much you can do through metal fabrication- cutting, bonding, chipping, welding, and more. Nowadays, most of these processes can be done in just one CNC machine. So the number of tools and machines required for these varied processes has reduced.
• With fabrication, it is easier to meet the requirements related to space and fitment in the given area. You can design the containers, storage units, or any fabricated product to best fit in the given space, in a compact manner. Some units can be collapsible, foldable, or can be dismantled when not required, to enable space saving.
• Many industries such as automotive, agriculture, and defense among others thrive because of the fabricated metals they use. They have better endurance and resistance.
• Fabricated metal product is heat resistant and designed to work in resist harsh environment. Most products are made of aluminum or steel, and hence are safe to use.
• Fabricated metals are virtually used in all industries, and this has led to the technological advancements and innovation in metal fabrication machines and equipment.
