What is Forming?
Forming is a critical metalworking process that shapes metal sheets into various configurations using force, pressure, or heat. Essential in metal fabrication, forming allows for the creation of custom components with precise dimensions and geometries. At Smucker Laser Cutting and Metal Fabrication, our forming services encompass a range of techniques, including bending and shaping, tailored to meet the unique requirements of our clients.
Our Forming Process
Press Brake Equipment:
Our Safan press brake utilizes up to 220 US Tons of force, forming the cornerstone of our forming capabilities. This advanced machinery allows us to handle materials longer than 13′, ensuring precise bends according to your specifications.
CNC Precision Bending:
We also utilize the RAS TURBObend CNC machine, capable of processing materials up to 14 ga in thickness and 10′ in length. This machine enhances our bending capabilities, providing versatility and accuracy for a wide range of applications. Smucker Laser Cutting and Metal Fabrication offers full bending capabilities for various shapes and sizes to the architectural, building, and electronic industries.
