Custom Fabrication
This involves designing and creating metal parts or structures tailored to client specifications. Companies use various techniques and tools to fabricate parts from scratch, ensuring they meet the required dimensions, shapes, and functionalities. This can include anything from small brackets to large industrial machinery components.
Welding
Welding is a core metal fabrication service where pieces of metal are joined together using heat and pressure. Common types include:
MIG Welding (Metal Inert Gas): Uses a continuous wire feed as an electrode and a shielding gas to weld metals, ideal for thick materials.
- TIG Welding (Tungsten Inert Gas): Uses a tungsten electrode and is known for its precision, suitable for thinner materials and detailed work.
- Arc Welding: Uses an electric arc to melt metals at the welding point, commonly used in construction and repair work.
Cutting Services
Companies offer various cutting methods to shape and size metal materials:
- Laser Cutting: Utilizes a high-powered laser beam to cut metals with precision, ideal for intricate designs and thin materials.
- Plasma Cutting: Employs a plasma torch to cut through thick metal plates quickly and accurately.
- Waterjet Cutting: Uses a high-pressure stream of water mixed with abrasive materials to cut metals, useful for materials sensitive to high temperatures.
