Sheet Metal Fabrication
Our precision sheet metal fabrication covers enclosures, brackets, and custom components using advanced CNC technology. We handle mild steel, aluminium, and stainless steel up to 6mm thickness with tolerances to 0.1mm. Clients benefit from our 40-year engineering expertise and full-service capabilities from design to finishing.
CNC Punching
High-speed CNC punching services process sheets up to 2500mm wide with complex nesting for cost efficiency. Our Amada Arcade 210 machine delivers 400 hits per minute for rapid production of components like washers, connectors, and structural parts. Tool libraries ensure optimal setup for both small batches and volume production.
Architectural Metalwork
Custom architectural solutions include balustrades, fire escapes, and decorative facades in mild steel, stainless steel, and wrought iron. We provide full-cycle service from design consultation to onsite installation, meeting building regulations with powder-coated finishes and slip-resistant handrails for commercial and residential projects.
Welding Services
Comprehensive welding capabilities cover MIG, TIG, arc, and spot welding for steel, aluminium, and copper alloys. Our certified welders handle thin gauge sheet metal to 10mm plate, with precision jigging and post-weld polishing. Applications include medical equipment, aerospace components, and structural steelwork.
SS Glass Balustrades
Bespoke stainless steel and glass balustrade systems using brushed steel tubing with 10mm toughened safety glass.
