What Is Sheet Metal Fabrication?
Sheet metal fabrication is the process of transforming metal sheets into various shapes and structures through techniques like cutting, bending, stamping, welding, punching, and rolling. These methods are crucial in producing a wide range of products. Cutting includes laser and plasma methods to shape metal sheets. Bending uses press brakes to form angles. Stamping creates detailed parts, while welding joins components. Punching adds holes or patterns, and rolling produces curved or cylindrical shapes. These techniques are integral in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and construction.
Sheet Metal Fabrication Cutting Process
Laser Cutting offers exceptional speed and high quality with a dimension accuracy of up to ±0.05mm, producing smooth surfaces with a roughness of only a few microns and eliminating the need for further mechanical processing. Plasma Cutting excels in speed and quality, especially for materials up to 40mm thick. It requires no preheating, ensures a smooth cut, and minimizes deformation. Water Jet Cutting is ideal for intricate designs, being versatile and minimally affected by material texture. Its low cost and ease of operation make it a popular choice in industrial cutting.
Materials of Sheet Metal Fabrication
Aluminum
Aluminum is a lightweight, corrosion-resistant metal known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and versatility. It is easy to machine and is often used in applications requiring high durability with minimal weight. Commonly found in structural components, aerospace parts, and consumer electronics, aluminum is favored for its workability and resistance to environmental degradation.
Common Applications: Aerospace, automotive, construction, electronics
Usual Type: 6061, 7075, 2024
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a group of corrosion-resistant alloys characterized by their strength and durability. It combines iron with chromium and sometimes nickel, making it resistant to rust and staining. This material is often used in environments where hygiene and longevity are critical, such as in medical instruments, kitchen equipment, and industrial applications.
Common Applications: Medical instruments, kitchenware, structural components
Usual Type: 304, 316, 430
Mild Steel
Mild steel, or low-carbon steel, is a popular and cost-effective choice for various manufacturing applications due to its excellent machinability and weldability. It has a relatively low tensile strength compared to other steels but is favored for its ease of use and flexibility. Commonly used in construction, automotive parts, and general manufacturing, mild steel provides a balance between performance and cost.
Common Applications: Construction, automotive, manufacturing
Usual Type: A36, S275, S355
Copper
Copper is a highly conductive metal with excellent thermal and electrical properties. It is used extensively in electrical wiring, heat exchangers, and plumbing systems due to its ability to conduct heat and electricity efficiently. Copper’s corrosion resistance and ductility also make it a versatile material for various industrial and consumer applications.
Common Applications: Electrical wiring, heat exchangers, plumbing
Usual Type: C110, C102, C145
