CUT. FORM. WELD. FABRICATE.
Five core capabilities. Practical engineering support. One team focused on turning customer designs into finished metalwork.
OUR CAPABILITIES
FROM CUSTOMER DESIGN TO FINISHED FABRICATION
Every project has different technical, commercial and production requirements.
Metallix works from customer designs and can support the project through a combination of in-house processes and hands-on fabrication knowledge. Where useful, we can also provide practical engineering input to help improve how the design is manufactured.
8 FABRICATION BAYS
Our workshop includes eight fabrication bays, each approximately 3m by 4m.
3KW LASER CUTTING
In-house laser cutting capability for customer-designed parts and components.
2 PRESS BRAKE MACHINES
Supporting forming and folding requirements across a range of fabrication projects.
TIG & MIG WELDING
Welding capability for components, frames and custom-built fabrications.
SHEET METAL FABRICATION & FRAME BUILDING
We provide bespoke sheet metal fabrication and frame building around customer-supplied designs and project requirements.
Our fabrication capability can support one-off parts, prototypes, custom-built solutions and repeat production requirements. Each enquiry is considered individually, allowing the team to understand the intended use, quantity and technical requirements before manufacture begins.
Our workshop includes eight fabrication bays, each approximately 3m by 4m, providing dedicated space for a varied range of fabrication work.
ENGINEERING & DESIGN SUPPORT
Metallix can review customer designs from a manufacturing perspective and suggest improvements that may make a part easier to produce, more cost-effective or better suited to its intended application.
The aim is not to take over the customer’s design. It is to bring hands-on fabrication knowledge into the conversation and work together to find the most practical solution.
Our support can help customers consider:
-
How the design will move through manufacture
-
Whether features could be simplified
-
Opportunities to reduce unnecessary cost
-
How the design could support better product performance
-
Whether the component is suitable for repeat production
FORMING, FOLDING & ROLLING
Metallix provides forming, folding and rolling as part of its sheet metal fabrication capability.
Two press brake machines support the shaping of sheet metal components according to customer designs and project requirements. These processes can be used independently or combined with laser cutting, welding and fabrication to produce a more complete finished item.
We can support formed and folded components for bespoke work, prototypes and larger production requirements.
WELDING
Our team provides TIG and MIG welding for fabricated components, metal frames and custom-built solutions.
Welding can form part of a wider fabrication project or support an individual customer requirement. The team works from the supplied design and specification, taking the intended application and wider fabrication into account.
By combining welding with our sheet metal fabrication, forming and laser cutting capabilities, Metallix can support projects that require more than one manufacturing process.
LASER CUTTING
Metallix has a 3kW laser cutting capability for producing sheet metal parts and components from customer designs.
Laser cutting can support individual parts, prototypes and repeat production requirements. Cut components can also move into forming, folding, welding or wider fabrication where the project requires additional processes.
Every enquiry is reviewed individually so the team can understand the required design, quantity, lead time and wider project requirements before providing guidance.
