Sheet Metal Fabrication Services
Elimold is an experienced fabricator of sheet metal products. We are equipped to produce and assemble customized sheet metal components with exacting precision. This includes fabrication of the simplest parts and the most complex assemblies, in large or small quantities. Rather than offering limited options, our extensive sheet fabrication capabilities allow us to provide effective manufacturing solutions for your exact needs. When manufacturing custom products, our machines are compatible with multiple different kinds of metal, sheet lengths, and thicknesses. Elimold has the ability to produce long or short runs of these custom laser cut sheet metal products. Often, fabricated sheet metal components can be used in prototyping or for large scale production operations.
- Material thickness anywhere from 20-gauge (.0359”) through ½ inch (.500”)
- Quantities from a few to thousands of parts
- Sizes from small to very large up (14 feet deep by 7- 8 feet wide and 8 – 9 feet tall)
Our 140,000 sq. ft. facility houses multiple lasers, press brakes, manual and robotic welding, finishing stations, a conveyor engineered paint system, off-line paint system, and component assembly.
Precision sheet metal fabrication services
Elimold offers precision sheet metal fabrication for industries ranging from furniture to defense. At our ISO 9001:2008 certified facility we employ modern turret punch presses and brake presses to manufacture small and medium components, and meet MIL-I-45208A inspection system requirements. Fabrication processes include but are not limited to punching, forming, shearing, laser cutting, and grinding. We also offer expert welding including TIG and Heli-Arc. We work with a range of materials including cold and hot rolled steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and brass, all of these in forms such as coil, sheet, bar stock, tubing, and plate. Our capabilities can accommodate a wide range of finishes including chrome, dip brazing, and powder coat as well as custom finishes.

What Is Sheet Metal Fabrication?
Sheet metal fabrication is the process of forming a piece of metal into a desired shape through bending, stretching, and removal of material. At Elimold, we use press brake punches and die tooling to bend and stretch flat stock into its final geometry. The sheet metal prototyping process is most often used when form, fit, and function are all a priority. Engineers often choose sheet metal parts for their high precision and durability, especially for end-use applications like chassis, enclosures, and brackets.
Why use sheet metal fabrication?
Sheet metal fabrication provides a solution that lasts longer than other products with similar uses. For example, you may get a similar shape and function using casting. However, a cast doesn’t have the same durability and longevity you get with metal.
When you need precision, sheet metal fabrication allows you to cut, bend, and shape the metal the way you need it. Metal gives you a material that not only conforms to its new shape but holds it indefinitely.
In industries that need materials to survive impacts or harsh conditions, metal far outstrips plastics of any kind when it comes to strength. Fabricating sheet metal is also a faster and more cost-effective alternative to other methods of creating similar products.
Learn More About Contract Maunfacturing
Contract manufacturing is the process of working with a third party manufacturer to produce products for your business. Whether it’s because you don’t want to buy all the necessary fabrication equipment yourself, or you don’t feel like staffing an entire fabrication crew, contract manufacturing could be the solution you need!
Elimold specializes in working with entrepreneurs as a contract manufacturer. All you need is a good idea — even a design scrawled on a restaurant napkin will do. Bring your idea into our shop and our expert engineers will help you turn your inspiration into a fully formed design and specification.
