Fabricating

Fabricating or Aluminium Fabrications

Fabricating in the context here is referring to the working of Aluminium extrusion turning it from a basic extrusion into a finished product .

Aluminium is easily machined so the extrusion needs only be the first step in designing a Aluminium product.

By the use of:-

Saws for straight cut or mitre cuts with a range of angles,

Drilling machines for simple holes

Punching to achieve complex holes or removing material or even simple bending

CNC routing to put holes and slots on up to three faces along a 3metre length

CNC vertical milling to produce complicated machining with perfect

repeatability

a combination of all the above can create an Aluminium product that bears little resemblance to the original extrusion.

Examples are difficult to describe and sometimes we are prohibited from saying what we supply and to whom

But let us have some fun

We supply a machined Aluminium extrusion that act as a step and enables the windscreen to be kept clear of water on a vehicle that has a track rather than wheels and has a Big Gun

Or how about an Aluminium product that in use enables the occupants of large expensive cars to keep cool.

A extrusion that in use helps oil wells to keep operating

A set of extrusions that help waterproof a domestic appliance (not normally a product you would want water near)

An Aluminium product that without which the London Underground would trip up

A small product that give a fibre glass canoe direction
