Custom metal fabrication has only become more and more popular in recent times. Chief of the driving forces are the aerospace and automotive industries. Aviation has seen more growth as more people are becoming empowered to air-travel, and more consumers are demanding affordable entry-level cars as well.

Upgrades to air carriers and planes as well as continued innovation in the automotive industry resulting in the production of new kinds and brands of cars means the metal fabrication industry will be kept busy for a long time.

In addition to this, custom metal fabrication also brings great benefits to more everyday, smaller-scale products.

Storage racks, tools, household and kitchen appliances, and bicycles and their accessories are just a few such products that utilize the versatile capabilities of custom metal fabrication.

Metal fabrication does not serve a wholly functional purposes – it can also serve a primarily aesthetic purpose. Think about metal sculptures, decoratives, and art pieces – as cities continue to expand and modernize, metal sculptures are the perfect accent to any city’s beauty, representing innovation, progress, and modernity. Such metal art pieces can also beautify office spaces, buildings, and homes.

Custom metal fabrication goes through several stages in the production process including assembling, cutting, and bending. Cutting determines the size of the metal. Bending determines the shape of the metal. Assembling includes binding and welding techniques. On the whole, custom metal fabrication uses many different techniques that it borrows from steel-working, boiler making, blacksmithing, and milling.

The integration on computerized technologies into our process allows for more precise designs and the improved ability to produce hundred and thousands of identical parts and components, but also smaller amounts of unique, custom products.

The capabilities of custom metal fabrication are vast and plenty.

You can see metal fabrication projects everywhere you look from land to air. Metal fabrication is a key element in the production of electronic devices, aviation instruments, medical equipment, and much more.
