CUSTOM METAL FABRICATION

Custom metal fabrication refers to any process that cuts, shapes or molds metal material into a final product.  It is a value-added process involving the creation of machines, parts, and structures from various raw materials.  Stock metal components, such as sheet metal, metal rods and metal bars, are widely available in a variety of material and dimensional specifications.

At New Wave our custom metal fabrication shop can produce metal products in a wide range of shapes and sizes. When construction companies, manufacturers or others require a non-standard component or unique metal product, New Waves’ custom fabrication services can provide both design and production assistance for these built-to-order parts.

CUSTOM METAL FABRICATION SERVICES

Our custom fabrication services can be helpful in all stages of the product development process. Whether you require a complete production run of items or support on a component assembly project, New Wave offers:

• Design: Have a CAD drawing, a sketch or just an idea?  We can help you design your product, component or part before the building process begins.
• Fabrication:  The actual building or creating of the metal product.
• Finishing and assembly: The improvement of product quality through post-fabrication treatments.

CUSTOM BUILD SERVICES – EQUIPMENT & CAPABILITIES

Once a product has been designed, either as a sketch, CAD drawing or even an idea, the manufacturing and machining process can begin. Choosing a fabrication method suited to a given project depends on the product’s intended purpose, and the materials used in crafting it.
