4 Advantages to Choose Sheet Metal Fabrication

Apr 23, 2021

 

Sheet metal fabrication is an excellent choice for manufacturing robust functional parts, such as panels, brackets, and enclosures.

This article briefly introduces the four advantages of choosing sheet metal fabrication.


Economy

Sheet metal fabrication means that it’s not necessary to create casting mold tools or other complex fixtures,and injection molding tools for plastic parts are expensive.For partially flat or hollow parts, sheet metal fabrication can be a cost-effective alternative to processes such as casting and machining. It can reduce material waste,thereby saving time.
 

Speed

Speed refers not only to actual production time,but also to all the preparatory steps preceding that, including programming,material preparation or mold creation.Sheet metal manufacturing does not need to create casting molds. After the project is approved, the staff can directly and quickly convert CAD to sheet metal parts.

 

Quality

Compared with the plastic shell, the sheet metal is stronger, durable and has good heat-bearing performance, which leads to a long service life of the product. If you develop products that need to meet these characteristics, then choosing sheet metal fabrication is an important advantage.

 

Flexibility

Sheet metal has good flexibility and ductility,it can not only process any type of graphics, but also cut pipes and other special-shaped materials.. Easier to process than plastic.
