Metal Fabrication in Brisbane: What to Expect From Your Metal Fabricator
Metal Fabrication in Brisbane is the term used to describe the
process of bending, cutting, and assembling metal structures from various metal
parts and pieces. The process of cutting the metal during fabrication is
generally done through sawing or shearing, laser cutting or punching. The
process of bending is done through press brakes. Press brakes use various dies
to be able to achieve the different types of bends that are required by a
project. Both the cutting and bending of the metal during fabrication are the
first steps. Once each pieces of metal are cut and bent to their appropriate
sizes and shapes, they are assembled together through welding.
Stamping is
another process in metal fabrication that is used for large quantities of the
same part. The first step is creating a stamp, or mold which is used in a
stamping machine to stamp the parts out of a piece of sheet metal. This process
is used for making a large quantity of the same part.
While
various types of metal are used in metal fabrication, steel is by far and away
the most common. Steel is an alloy of primarily iron with varying amounts of
carbon added, generally 0.2% to 2.1%. Carbon is the most common alloying
element due to it being the lowest cost and adding desirable traits to the
metal such as increased strength, malleability, and hardness depending upon the
amount of carbon added. An alloy of steel, chromium and nickel creates the most
common type of stainless steel fabrication which is Type 304, or
"surgical steel".
Metal
fabrication is an industry that is growing. There is a wide variety of
fabricators and it's important to select the company that will best serve your
needs. A good fabricator will be able to recommend the best metal, be able to
design your project for manufacturing, and have a capable manufacturing facility
in order to provide you with the best product at the best price.
