Custom Sheet Metal Fabrication techniques.

Custom  Sheet metal fabrication involves manufacturing components by manipulating sheet metal through various means. This is most often accomplished by first laser cutting or turret punching the material, followed by forming, bending, and/or rolling the sheet metal, along with welding and other assembly processes.
Prkfabricators one of the leading Automotive sheet metal components has the capability to form, draw, and assemble the small to large sheet metal fabrications that our CNC turret presses and 9,000 & 4,000-watt fiber optic laser produce. We have a large welding department, for all your Sheet metal fabrication and assembly needs. We will also accommodate the cosmetic needs of your metal fabrication project, with finishing techniques performed by our skilled personnel and our straight-line sanding machines.
The Sheet Metal Fabrication Process
  • Blanking – The following processes are usually used for high precision custom sheet metal fabrication blanking: laser cutting, turret press, and waterjet cutting.
  • Bending & Forming – This type of  bending custom sheet metal work utilizes machines such as press brakes, folding machines, and stamping units to form and bend a sheet of metal.
  • Assembly – Certain sheet metal fabrication projects need assembly work through processes such as riveting, welding, hardware insertion and adhesive applications.
  • Finishing – After the sheet metal is formed through any of the above processes, a surface finish of powder coating, plating, or anodizing is applied to the material.
