Sheet metal fabrication refers to a manufacturing process that involves the manipulation of sheet metal (metal plates) through various processes such as cutting, bending, punching, stretching, and forming to produce components or finished products with specific shapes and dimensions.
Sheet metal fabrication is widely used in various industrial fields, such as automotive manufacturing, aerospace, electronics and communications, and architectural decoration. This process typically requires the use of specialized equipment, such as CNC shearing machines, CNC bending machines, and punch presses, to ensure precision and efficiency.
The materials used in sheet metal fabrication are usually metal sheets, such as steel plates, aluminum plates, stainless steel plates, etc. Before processing, material preparation is necessary, including operations like cutting, bending, and edge trimming. Then, the fabrication is carried out according to the product requirements, ultimately producing components or finished products that meet the desired specifications.
