Sheet Metal Fabrication Services
BXD's sheet metal fabrication services provide a fast and cost-effective solution for any parts that need to be made from 3D CAD files or engineering drawings. We will provide you one-stop solution for sheet metal parts and assemblies.
BXD offers a range of sheet metal materials, including aluminum, copper, steel, and stainless steel, as well as assembly services like installing PEM inserts, welding, and finishing services.
Sheet Metal fabrication is a valuable prototyping and production method for making robust functional parts like panels, brackets, and enclosures. We offers competitive sheet metal prices for low volume prototypes and cost savings for high volume production runs.

What is sheet metal fabrication?
Sheet metal fabrication is a cold working process that turning sheet metal (usually less than 6 mm) into different shape of parts. The process include shearing, punching / cutting / laminating, folding, welding, riveting, splicing, forming etc. The main feature is the same thickness of the same part.
Sheet metal fabrication can be used to create either functional prototypes or end-use parts, but end-use sheet metal parts generally require a finishing process before they are ready for market.
