Our Metal Fabrication Capabilities

We offer a wide array of metal fabrication processes to best suit our customers’ varied needs and application requirements.

PROTOTYPING

While we have the capacity for high-volume orders, we also provide prototyping and first-article services for our customers. By working closely with your engineers or provided designs, our team will help you confirm proof of concept before fabrication begins. This allows you to refine and optimize your design and identify any flaws before incurring the expense of large-scale manufacturing.

MACHINING

This subtractive manufacturing method is typically carried out by computer numerical control (CNC) equipment. Automated machinery like CNC mills and lathes use tooling directed by computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) software to cut material away from a metal billet and shape a workpiece into the preferred dimensions and profile.

CUTTING

Cutting is essential in metal fabrication, from standard or automated machining equipment to advanced lasers, waterjet cutters, or plasma torches. At Honest Steel, we are experienced with laser cutting processes to break down material into smaller portions or shape workpieces.

SHEARING

The shearing process is ideal for creating longer cuts in metal sheets or trimming their edges. Methods include feeding a sheet into a metal cutter horizontally, applying a tool vertically along a sheet’s length, or positioning the sheet on the edge of a surface and lowering a cutting blade over it.

STAMPING

For small to large production runs and simple to complex parts, stamping shapes metal sheets into desired profiles using a press, tool, and die. Equipment like press brakes, laser machinery, and turret equipment can create components in various configurations and dimensions.

PUNCHING

Punching creates holes in metal using a die and a drill. The drill punches through the metal beneath a die, creating precisely sized holes. It’s a versatile technique for components with holes for fasteners or where the blanked-out metal is the finished product.

DIE CASTING

Die casting is similar to plastic injection molding. Metal billets are heated until molten and injected into a die. Once the metal cools, it solidifies into the die's shape. Other casting forms include investment and sand casting.

FORGING

Forging is a traditional metalworking technique where heated metal billets are shaped using hammers, anvils, presses, or related equipment. This impact force gives the material its desired form.

FOLDING

Folding involves bending a piece of metal to create a component with a predetermined angle, often 90°. However, folding equipment can achieve smaller or greater angles. This complex process is often more efficient than bonding two panels together at specific angles.

WELDING AND ASSEMBLY

Welding involves melting metal and pressing it against additional parts to join them. As the molten metal cools, it forms a strong bond. At Honest Steel, we offer MIG, TIG, and spot welding, along with extensive assembly services. We also provide painting and powder coating for protection and aesthetics.
