ZE-TECH Sheetmetal Fabrication services
Sheetmetal fabrication
Processing of sheet metal is called sheet metal fabrication, plastically deforming sheet metal by hand or stamping to the desired shape and size, and can be further welded or machined to form more complex parts. The main processes include bending, stamping, laser cutting, crimping and welding, and the most obvious feature of sheet metal fabrication is the consistent thickness of the part. Sheet metal parts have the characteristics of light weight, high strength, low cost, convenient mass production, etc. Sheet metal processing is widely used in electronic appliances, communications, automotive industry, medical equipment and other fields.

materials
Stainless steel is a popular choice for sheet metal processing due to its corrosion resistance, strength, and durability. It is often used in applications where hygiene and cleanliness are important, such as in the food and medical industries.
Aluminum is lightweight, strong, and highly resistant to corrosion, making it an ideal material for a wide range of sheet metal applications. It is commonly used in the aerospace and automotive industries, as well as for architectural and decorative purposes.
Copper is a highly conductive metal with excellent corrosion resistance. It is often used in electrical and electronic applications, as well as for decorative purposes.
Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, and is known for its corrosion resistance and attractive appearance. It is often used in architectural and decorative applications, as well as for musical instruments.
Galvanized steel is coated with a layer of zinc to protect it from corrosion. It is commonly used in outdoor applications, such as for roofing and fencing.
Craft
Bending
Bending is one of the most common sheet metal fabrication methods. The sheet metal is bent into the desired shape by means of a bending machine. When bending, due to certain rebound, the bending angle of the metal is slightly larger than the required angle.
Stamping
Stamping is one of the common sheet metal processing methods. It is an automated and efficient production method to process the metal plate through a die to form holes, bosses, ribs and other structures on the metal plate.
Laser Cutting
Laser cutting is a precision machining method which cuts the material by a high power density laser beam. The material is quickly heated to the vaporization temperature, and evaporates to form a hole. As the beam moves to the material, the hole continuously forms a narrow slit to complete the cutting of the material.

ZE-TECH can make different kinds of surface treatments on your sheet metal processing orders. It includes passivation, zinc plated, powder coated, painting, nickel plated, color plating, copper plated, black coated, etc.
If you have more questions about sheet metal processing surface treatment, just let us know.
What Are the Shapes Of Sheet Metals?
Usually, you can find two shapes of sheet metals available. One is a flat sheet that is the rectangular shape of a metal sheet that is flat and uniformly thicken. Whereas another shape is coiled sheet metal. A flat sheet is typical, while the coiled sheet metal is formed through roller slitters.
What Products Can You Make from Sheet Metal?
It is really hard to find out any industry that is not consuming sheet metal. A significant example is the automobile industry that needs sheet metal for car frame formation. Also, trucks, buses, aeroplane bodies are manufactured using these sheet metals.
Another big example that you can find is the body of various computers, laptops, printers, photocopiers, cellular phones, all made of sheet metal. The electrical industry is also dependent on sheet metals. For example, transformers body, main switch bodies, connections, terminals, carriers, etc., are made of sheet metals.
The food industry also uses sheet metal to form food container tins. You can also notice many products like furniture, fences, signs, lamps, vessels all made of sheet metal.
Why Do You Achieve Edge Rounding of Metals in Sheet Metal Processing?
You reduce the sharpness of the edge with edge rounding. This is important to make sheet metals useful and reliable to make them safe for industrial and other usages in homes. The food and chemical sector also requires edge rounding for lacquering and coating their products.
What Are the Differences Between Cold and Hot Forming in Sheet Metal Fabrication?
As you can comprehend by the name, cold forming requires less temperature, whereas hot forming is done at high temperatures. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages.
In hot forming, you apply specific techniques under high temperatures to achieve better formability. You might experience poor dimensional tolerances as well as scored surfaces in the hot forming process, which are probably its major disadvantages.
Whereas you can get precise dimensional tolerances through the cold-forming process. You do not have to heat the material, which results in increased strength. But this cold-formed workpiece could only be welded if you soft annealed, thus minimizing stress.
