The Prototyping Crisis: Cost, Time, and Volume Traps
Traditional metal fabrication forces engineers into impossible trade-offs:
- 8-12 week lead times for simple brackets
- $15k+ tooling costs for batches under 100 units
- ±0.25mm tolerance gaps causing assembly failures
- 40% material waste in complex geometries
Our Metal Fabrication Solutions shatter these barriers through geometry-driven manufacturing. By matching processes like laser cutting, CNC punching, and press braking to your part’s shape and precision needs, we deliver sheet metal prototypes in 5-10 days at 30-60% lower cost.
Critical Applications: Solving Real-World Bottlenecks
1. Medical Device Housings
Problem: 10-week waits for ✅ precision laser-cut titanium medical housings with 0.1mm tolerance.
Solution:
- Fiber laser cutting with N₂ assist (Ra 0.8µm finish)
- Eliminates $12k stamping dies
- Ships 20-unit batches in 8 days at $95/unit
2. Electric Vehicle Battery Trays
Problem: 14-week delays for ✅ low-volume aluminum enclosures under 50 units with coolant channels.
Solution:
- Adaptive CNC punching + robotic bending
- Integrated leak testing (<0.01 cc/min)
- Delivers in 6 days (67% faster than industry avg.)
3. Aerospace Avionics Mounts
Problem: 9-week minimum for ✅ quick-turn sheet metal brackets for robotics in UAVs.
Solution:
- 5-axis laser cutting of 0.8mm 6061-T6
- K-factor optimized bending (±0.05mm repeatability)
- 30-unit orders shipped in 4 days
4. Consumer Electronics EMI Shielding
Problem: 7-week cycles for ✅ EMI-shielded chassis prototyping (1-20 pcs).
Solution:
- Snap-fit compatible laser etching
- Conductive e-coating for RF isolation
- $220/unit for 10pcs (delivered in 5 days)
Process Selection Matrix: Geometry Dictates Technology
| Part Characteristic | Optimal Process | Tolerance | Lead Time | Cost/K Unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Thin walls (0.4-0.8mm) | Fiber laser cutting | ±0.03mm | 2-4 days | 18−45 |
| Complex bends (≥5 angles) | CNC press braking with 3D scanning | ±0.07mm | 3-6 days | 32−90 |
| High-volume (>500 units) | Progressive stamping | ±0.1mm | 10-15 days | 6−15 |
| Ultra-low volume (1-20 pcs) | Turret punching + manual forming | ±0.15mm | 1-3 days | 55−180 |
