The General Fabrication Process
Metal fabricating is a value-added process that involves bending, cutting, and assembling various items for use in homes and businesses. Many refer to metal fabrication and welding as the same process, however, welding is just one small part of the metal fabrication process. Those interested in metal work must be not only skilled in welding but also able to read a blueprint and follow it exactly. The ability to be creative is another helpful characteristic in metal fabricating, as it allows us to help see what our customers are seeing and to design to their exact specifications.
One aspect of metal fabricating is the powder coating process. This process is used on most of our finished products and is done by applying a dry powder to the bare metal and then cured under heat which allows it to flow and form a type of skin over the metal, thus sealing it and preventing rust from forming. Advantages of powder coating include a curing time that is much faster than with a liquid coating, plus the finish doesn’t run or sag like conventional painting can do. We stock over 300 colors with varying textures and sheen.
