Sheet Metal Fabrication
Our Sheet Metal Service
Sheet metal fabrication is a complex manufacturing procedure that transforms flat metal sheets into completed products or detailed components. This conversion employs various methods that collectively achieve the intended shape and performance. Initially, the sheet metal is precisely cut to required measurements using equipment such as laser cutters or shearing machines. After cutting, the metal undergoes bending and forming operations, where it is shaped into specific angles and curves with accuracy. Welding is subsequently applied to fuse separate sheet metal parts, producing a robust and unified structure. Lastly, assembly processes integrate all components, resulting in a finished product. Each phase in this workflow is essential to guarantee that the end result satisfies both aesthetic and functional criteria, while also complying with safety and durability standards.

We accept DWG, DXF, STEP, and IGES file formats for sheet metal fabrication. Please include all critical details—dimensions, tolerances, material thickness, and bend directions—to enable a fast and accurate quotation.
What metal materials are available for sheet metal fabrication? Can I get samples first?
We commonly work with cold-rolled steel, hot-rolled steel, stainless steel (304/316), aluminum alloys (5052/6061), and galvanized steel. For design validation, we recommend small sample runs of 1–5 pieces to verify dimensions, tolerances, and surface finishes before full production.
What is the typical lead time from order to delivery? Can I request expedited service?
Standard production times range from 5 to 10 business days, depending on complexity and order size. Expedited services with 2–4 business-day turnaround are available based on project urgency and scheduling.
Are there minimum size or order quantity requirements?
We can process parts as small as 5×5 mm with bend radii down to 0.2 mm. Single-piece orders are accepted with no minimum quantity; for batch orders, we recommend 10 pieces or more to optimize cost and lead time.
How do you ensure the precision and quality of fabricated parts?
We employ coordinate measuring machines (CMM) and laser measurement tools for 100% inspection of critical dimensions. Quality checks are performed before and after bending, welding, and stamping, with detailed inspection reports to ensure tolerances within ±0.1 mm.
How is pricing determined and how quickly will I receive a quote?
Pricing depends on material type, thickness, required processes (laser cutting, bending, welding), and order quantity. After submitting complete drawings and requirements, you will typically receive a preliminary quote within four hours; complex projects may require up to one business day for detailed evaluation.
Do you offer surface finishing and secondary processing services?
Surface finishing options include painting, powder coating, electroplating, anodizing, and phosphating. Secondary services such as welding, assembly, and packaging are also available to meet your functional and aesthetic requirements.
What is the ordering and payment process?
Once your order is confirmed, we will send an electronic contract and sales order for a 30%–50% deposit via bank transfer, PayPal, or credit card. The remaining balance is due before shipment, and credit terms can be arranged for long-term customers.
