Frequently Asked Questions

Is sheet metal fabrication superior to welding?

Welding is one part of the metal fabrication process and should not be excluded when creating products. Sheet metal fabrication offers greater strength and flexibility with designs. We use high-grade cutting, bending and shaping techniques to create complex parts. These components are more durable than welded pieces on their own.

What products can be fabricated by you?

Metal-Tech Industries produces a diverse range of products based on clients’ specifications, including battery charger stations, telemetry cabinetry, monitor enclosures, general enclosures, and more.

What different techniques are involved in metal fabrication?

There are three different methods of metal fabrication. These methods are sheet metal fabrication, welding and machining. Sheet metal fabrication involves bending and cutting sheets into their desired shape. Welding involves the joining of two different pieces by melting the parts together. Machining is where the desired product or shape is cut out of a larger piece to produce a final product.

How do metal folding and bending differ?

Metal folding is often used on thicker sheets, whereas bending is better for thinner sheets. Folding is also more suitable for larger pieces. Both processes use different techniques to shape metal into various forms.

Is bending metal better than welding?

Bending sheet metal is often better than welding as it allows the metal to maintain its integrity. By pressing the metal into its desired shape, rather than welding separate pieces, there is also less metal waste.

What can you produce with metal folding?

Sheet metal bending and folding can be used to create a range of different products. Metal folding services are often used to make brackets, shelving, cabinet components, boat parts and much more.

How does the material affect the effectiveness of metal folding?

The thickness of the metal affects the effectiveness of folding. Thicker sheets may weaken or warp from bending pressure. Proper machines can bend thicker sheets with minimal impact on the material.

What types of materials can be laser cut?

Our laser cutting services handle various materials, such as mild steel (Galv and Zincalume), stainless steel, tempered steel, aluminium, copper, and brass. Our machines cut up to 20 mm of metal, depending on the material.

Is laser cutting better than plasma cutting?

Laser cutting generally provides better results than plasma cutting. It offers more precision and often faster cutting with smoother results. Plasma cutting, using hot plasma to cut through material, is better for straightforward cuts. For detailed custom designs, laser cutting is the best option.

What steps are involved in programming laser cutters?

Laser cutters are programmed by computers. Once a design has been created it can be sent directly to the laser cutter to begin cutting. At Metal-Tech Industries we use the latest equipment for all our projects. With a CNC, computer numerical controlled, laser cutting machine, we can ensure all your projects are cut to the highest quality.
