Mild steel sheet metal work
Mild steel sheet metal work
Mild steel is such a flexible material and it is the main stay of the sheet metal we use here at V and F Sheet Metal. We laser cut and CNC punch it out to make accurate blanks with edge profiles, holes, cut-outs and pressed in forms before we do anything else. Being sheet metal workers the vast majority of our work starts as flat sheet although we do work with some mild steel tube and bar. All the flat blank patterns are created in bespoke sheet metal programming software called Radan. This software enables us to 3D model parts, unfold them and tool them either for CNC punching or laser cutting. The mild steel blanks can then be folded up using a range of CNC press brakes that we use here with the latest and biggest being a Safan e-Brake 3M long 100 ton 6 axis CNC press brake bending machine. Along with TiG, MiG and spot welding and bush / stud fastener insertion we can do anything with sheet metal work when it’s in mild steel.
We also manufacture sheet metal work products from stainless steel and aluminium alloys.
