Powder coating is a popular and environmentally friendly method of applying a protective and decorative finish to various types of metal and even some non-metal surfaces. | Metals | White, Black, RAL and Pantone | Glossy, fine, hardness |
Polishing
|
The primary goal of polishing is to create a smooth and reflective surface by removing imperfections, scratches, and irregularities. | Metals | Silver gray | Bright, mirror, silk |
Chromate
|
Chromate, commonly known as a chemical thin film, is a conversion coating used as a corrosion inhibitor on aluminum. | Aluminum | Clear/ Slight yellow tint | Satin |
Bead blasting
|
Bead blasting, also known as abrasive blasting, is a surface preparation technique used to clean, finish, or texture a surface by forcibly propelling small, spherical abrasive materials, called "beads" or "media," at high speeds onto the surface being treated. | Aluminum, copper, stainless steel, steel | N/A | Grainy, slightly matte texture |
As machining
|
Machining is a subtractive manufacturing process in which a machine tool, typically a cutting tool, removes material from a workpiece to achieve the desired shape, dimensions, and surface finish. | Metals | N/A | Smooth, glossy finish |

Sheet Metal Fabrication Overview
What is sheet metal fabrication?
Sheet metal fabrication is a manufacturing technique that encompasses the cutting and bending of metal sheets to create a variety of shapes and structures.
How Does Sheet Metal Fabrication Work?
In the sheet metal fabrication process, thin sheet metal stock is initially positioned on a flat bed. Here, a laser cutter ① follows pre-programmed patterns to cut out the desired parts. Depending on the specific part’s geometry, a sheet metal punch ② may also be employed to create additional features. After the parts are deburred to remove any sharp edges or imperfections, they proceed to the press brake ③where they are shaped into their final geometries. Frequently, additional secondary operations are employed to complete the finishing touches on the sheet metal parts.
