Introduction

Rapid sheet metal fabrication is a manufacturing method for thin-plate structural components using CNC laser cutting, CNC punching, and CNC bending as core processes.

It is suitable for structural verification, prototype production, small-batch production, and design iteration stages, providing data references for engineering development and mass production preparation.

Processing capacity

Laser cutting precision control: Contour and hole machining tolerances can reach ±0.1 mm, ensuring part dimensions meet drawing requirements.
CNC bending angle and dimension control: Bending angle deviations can be kept within the design allowable range, supporting multiple bends and complex shape structures.
Repeatable processing capability: Multiple parts and batches can maintain dimensional and structural consistency.
Process quality inspection capability: Supports first-piece inspection (FAI) and in-process inspection, ensuring each part meets design requirements.
Digital rapid iteration capability: Direct machining based on CAD data, supporting rapid re-production after design modifications.
Material adaptability: Can process various common sheet metal materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, and galvanized steel, and can be combined with different surface treatment solutions.

MOQ, Lead Time, and Mass Production Capacity

Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ): Prototypes can be made with 1 piece, small batches with 5–100 pieces, and trial production with hundreds of pieces.
Lead Time Range: Prototypes typically take 1–5 business days, small batches 7–15 business days; urgent projects can be expedited based on process adjustments.
Design Iteration Support: Designs can be quickly modified and validated in multiple versions without the need for molds.
