All About Structural Steel Fabrication

By Linda Ruiz


The meaning of the process refers to the manner in which steel is cut and shaped into various forms through cutting, bending and assembling. Cutting is done using chisels and the laser rays among other machines. The bending is done by the hammering with the use of CNC-controlled equipment which aids in the whole process. The assembling part can be done with the skill of using, riveting, welding and fasteners. Comprehensively this are the procedures used through structural steel fabrication.

There are a number of ways that companies use in cutting of steel to begin with. The use a process called shearing where plasma with laser mechanism is used to go through the this metal. On the other hand they also use cutting torches and robots through the band saw process.

The next phase is the forming one. Here the it is formed or shaped into many shapes that fit the description of the clientele that involves those from the ornamental or the jewelry market, the construction sector, and the automotive and aeronautical sector.

After cutting, then comes to the machining and welding and forming of the specified units. The energy used in this phase is high and not many companies out there get to do both. A good case is how china takes back imported steel from Germany back to Germany again to be cut. The same is the case, companies have to handle a part and leave the rest to the assemblers.

There are a couple of uses that steel is associated with. From building and construction jobs like making fly-overs and bridges to sky-scrappers. Steel due to the strength of the metal it is preferred in the building. The setting up industries and also use in the cutting process not only for itself but also other metals like iron. The energy sector like oil, pipeline and also production through the use of wind turbines. Lastly in the households, almost 75 percent of the appliances are made of steel. This is an essential tool that covers a lot of sectors

Before get the services from the many advertised companies crisscrossing the internet, it is important to note the following factors.
