Metal Fabrication Processes

Cutting a flat blank from coil or sheet metal before forming, using a dedicated blanking die on a stamping press.

Creating holes, slots or openings in stamped parts with punch-and-die tooling.

High-volume stamping where coil stock passes through multiple stations in one die set to complete a part progressively.

Forming flat sheet metal into a seamless hollow part by radial drawing into a die cavity with a punch.

Tight-tolerance stamping for functional components, often with fine blanking, coining and controlled burr.

Rotating a workpiece against a cutting tool to machine cylindrical features, diameters, grooves and threads.

Machining faces, pockets, slots, holes and complex contours with rotating end mills on a CNC machine.

Using a travelling wire electrode to cut precise profiles in conductive materials with no cutting force.

Separating sheet metal into blanks with laser, CNC punch or shearing before further processing.

Forming sheet metal along a straight axis with a press brake to create flanges, channels and enclosures.

Controlled CNC bending of tubes and pipes into 3D shapes while managing wall thinning and ovality.

High-accuracy thermal cutting of sheet metal and tube profiles with a focused laser beam.

Joining stamped and machined parts through riveting, pressing, welding or fastening into assemblies.

Protective or cosmetic finishing such as plating, passivation, anodizing, powder coating or painting.

Controlled heating and cooling to change mechanical properties such as hardness, strength or ductility.

Machining a conical recess so a flat-head screw or rivet sits flush with the part surface before final assembly.

Rolling the edge of sheet metal into a rounded rim to add stiffness, remove sharp edges and improve part safety.

Removing burrs and sharp edges left by cutting, punching or machining so parts are safe to handle and ready for plating or assembl

Cutting internal threads into a pre-drilled or punched hole so the part accepts screws or fittings in final assembly.

Removing excess material around the edge of a drawn or formed part to reach the final outline and dimensional tolerance.

Forming metal by forcing it through a die under high pressure at room temperature, improving strength and surface finish.

High-precision blanking with a V-ring impingement to produce smooth, near-shear edges and tight dimensional control in one stroke.

Forming a collar around a punched hole to add strength for thread rolling, self-tapping screws or tube connections.
