A Day as a Sheet Metal Fabricator

Good morning, everyone, it's time for me to start my shift operating the machines here at Junying Metal Manufacturing. As a skilled fabricator, I play an important role in transforming raw materials into precision custom sheet metal parts using various fabrication processes.

First up, Laser Cutting

I start by loading sheet stock of aluminium, stainless steel or other material into the CNC laser cutter. The laser moves according to the digital design file to cut out profiles for prototype or production parts. Laser cutting delivers clean, burr-free edges with tight tolerances.

Forming Operations

Next, I'll bend or form parts using bending machines, presses or other equipment. Complex 3D shapes can be achieved through a series of bending operations without removing material. These formed sheet metal components are commonly used for housings, ductwork and other structural applications.

Additional Processes

Other processes may include drilling, tapping, notching, stamping or welding. Our diverse range of CNC machines and skilled operators allow us to meet the forming, cutting and joining needs of designers and engineers across industries.

Quality Checks

Before sending parts to customers, a final quality check ensures dimensional accuracy and burr/defect-free surfaces. With care and precision, we reliably produce high-quality sheet metal parts on time and on budget.
