Fabrication Processes
Cutting: Techniques like plasma cutting, laser cutting, and water jet cutting are used to shape raw materials into desired forms.
Bending and Forming: Press brakes and roll forming machines are employed to bend and shape metal components.
Welding: Different welding methods, including MIG, TIG, and arc welding, are used to join metal pieces together.
Machining: Precision machining processes may be involved in fabricating components requiring tight tolerances.
Applications
Construction: Fabricated steel structures are widely used in the construction of buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure projects.
Oil and Gas: Heavy fabrication supports the manufacturing of components for oil rigs, pipelines, and processing facilities.
Power Generation: Components for power plants, including turbine parts and support structures, are fabricated in this sector.
Transportation: Manufacturing of components for ships, trains, and heavy-duty vehicles involves heavy and medium fabrication.
