What is Metal Frame Fabrication?
Metal frame fabrication is the process of creating structural frameworks using metal materials. It involves a series of techniques and operations to transform raw metal materials into finished frames that can be used in various industries. The following is a detailed introduction:
- Cutting:
- Sawing: Utilizes power saws or hand saws to cut metal into specific lengths and shapes. Band saws, circular saws, and hacksaws are commonly used, with different types being suitable for different metal thicknesses and cutting requirements.
- Laser Cutting: Employs a high-powered laser beam to precisely cut through metal. It offers extreme accuracy, clean cuts with minimal kerf width, and can handle complex shapes, making it ideal for high-precision metal frame fabrication.
- Plasma Cutting: Uses a high-velocity jet of ionized gas to melt and cut through metal. It is suitable for thicker metals and can cut at a relatively fast speed, although the cut edges may require some finishing.
- Bending:
- Roll Bending: Involves passing the metal through rollers to create a curved shape. The rollers can be adjusted to control the radius of the bend, and this method is often used for creating circular or arched frames.
- Press Bending: Utilizes a press brake to apply force and bend the metal at a specific angle. It is commonly used for creating sharp bends and angles in metal frames, such as in the corners of rectangular or square frames.
- Mandrel Bending: A more specialized technique that uses a mandrel inserted into the metal tube or profile to prevent wrinkling or collapsing during bending. It is often used for creating complex curved shapes with a high degree of accuracy, especially in applications where the integrity of the bent section is critical.
- Welding:
- MIG Welding: Metal Inert Gas welding uses a wire electrode and a shielding gas to create a strong bond between metal pieces. It is a fast and efficient welding method, suitable for joining various types of metals and is commonly used in mass production of metal frames.
- TIG Welding: Tungsten Inert Gas welding uses a tungsten electrode and provides more precise control over the weld. It is often used for high-quality welds on thinner metals or in applications where a clean and precise weld is required, such as in jewelry or high-end metal frame fabrication.
- Arc Welding: Utilizes an electric arc to heat and melt the metal surfaces, creating a weld joint. It is a versatile welding method that can be used for a wide range of metal thicknesses and is commonly used in construction and repair of metal frames.
- Machining: Machining operations such as drilling, threading, and milling may be performed on metal tubes. Drilling creates holes for fasteners or for other components to pass through. Threading is done to enable the tubes to be screwed together or to attach threaded fittings. Milling can be used to create flat surfaces or to remove material for specific shapes or features.
- Surface Treatment:
- Painting: Protects the metal frame from corrosion and provides an aesthetic finish. Various types of paints, such as enamel, epoxy, and acrylic paints, can be used depending on the application and desired properties.
- Plating: Involves depositing a thin layer of another metal, such as chrome, nickel, or zinc, onto the surface of the metal frame. Plating improves corrosion resistance and can enhance the appearance of the frame.
- Anodizing: Commonly used for aluminum frames, anodizing creates a hard, protective oxide layer on the surface of the metal. It not only provides corrosion resistance but also allows for coloring the frame in various shades.

Construction: Metal frames are used in building structures for walls, floors, and roofs. They provide the necessary support and stability, and can be designed to meet different architectural and engineering requirements.
- Industrial Equipment: Metal frames are used in the construction of machinery, conveyor systems, and storage racks. They provide a stable base and support for the operation of the equipment.
- Furniture: Metal frames are used in the production of chairs, tables, beds, and other furniture items. They can be designed to have a modern, industrial look or to blend in with more traditional styles.
