Our Sheet Metal & Fabrication Services

Shearing:
At Smith and Long, we utilize advanced shearing equipment to cut metal sheets to precise dimensions with clean, straight edges. This process is ideal for a variety of materials, including steel, aluminum, and other alloys, and can handle various thicknesses. Shearing is commonly used in the production of flat pieces that need minimal deformation, and it is especially effective for high-volume production where consistent accuracy is required.

Forming:
Our metal forming services offer the flexibility to bend and shape sheet metal into custom profiles, such as brackets, channels, and other complex components. Using press brakes and other specialized tools, we ensure each piece meets your exact specifications, with tight tolerances and repeatability. This service is essential for producing parts that need structural integrity, durability, and precise geometries, whether for industrial applications or specialized custom projects.

Punching:
With high-speed punching machines, we create holes and intricate shapes in metal sheets with speed and accuracy. Our punching services are perfect for applications that require perforations, slots, or cutouts in various materials and thicknesses. This method allows us to handle high-volume production runs while maintaining tight tolerances, making it suitable for manufacturing parts like mounting plates, ventilation grilles, and decorative panels.

High Definition Plasma Cutting:
Our high-definition plasma cutting technology provides clean and precise cuts for both simple and intricate designs. This process is particularly effective for cutting thicker materials like steel and aluminum with minimal kerf loss, ensuring optimal material usage. Plasma cutting is ideal for creating complex shapes or large components, and it allows for faster processing times compared to other cutting methods, making it a popular choice for structural and heavy-duty applications.

Rolling:
Our rolling services allow us to bend sheet metal into cylindrical shapes or curves, essential for the production of ducts, pipes, cones, and other structural components. Whether you require gentle bends or more aggressive curvatures, we work with a wide range of metals to ensure your projects are completed with precision and uniformity. Rolling is key for creating parts that need to fit tightly in assemblies, particularly in HVAC systems, piping, and architectural structures.

Saw Cutting:
Our saw cutting services deliver straight, accurate cuts on a wide range of metal types and thicknesses. This method is especially effective for cutting bars, pipes, and other structural materials that require a clean, straight edge. With precision tools, we ensure that each cut matches your project specifications, whether for custom fabrication, prototyping, or mass production. Saw cutting is perfect for applications where precision and repeatability are critical.

Bevelling:
Bevelling is a specialized service where we create angled edges on metal sheets or components, which is essential for enhancing the quality of welds and improving the fit between parts. Whether your project requires single or double-sided bevels, we ensure precise angles that make assembly and joining processes seamless. This service is commonly used in the preparation of edges for welding, particularly in structural fabrication, pipework, and heavy-duty applications.

Automated Panel Line:
Our automated panel line offers efficient production of panelized components, streamlining the manufacturing process and reducing lead times. This automation allows us to produce large quantities of panels with uniform quality, ideal for applications in construction, industrial enclosures, and HVAC systems. The automation ensures consistency, speeds up production, and reduces manual labor, making it a cost-effective solution for high-volume projects.

Angle Iron Line:
We specialize in the fabrication of angle iron for structural applications, providing custom solutions tailored to your project’s specific requirements. Our angle iron line produces pieces that are critical for support structures, frames, and reinforcements. Whether you need standard sizes or custom dimensions, our equipment and skilled team ensure that each angle iron meets stringent quality standards, ensuring durability and strength for your applications.

Mitsubishi Laser Cutter:
Our state-of-the-art Mitsubishi laser cutter handles a variety of materials, including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, with a cutting capacity of up to ½ inch. With a bed size of 5′ x 10′, we can accommodate large sheets and bulk orders with exceptional precision. The laser cutter is perfect for creating intricate designs, detailed cutouts, and tight tolerances, ensuring both speed and accuracy. Whether for prototyping or high-volume production, laser cutting provides superior edge quality and minimal material waste.

Custom Metal Enclosures:
We offer custom metal enclosure design and fabrication services to protect your equipment and components. These enclosures are engineered to meet industry standards, providing durability, weather resistance, and structural integrity. Whether you need enclosures for electrical equipment, industrial machinery, or specialized custom applications, we tailor each enclosure to fit your exact specifications, ensuring it’s built to last and perform under demanding conditions.
