Sheet metal fabrication involves the design and manufacturing of sheet metal components and assemblies. It is essential for industry verticals including automotive, aerospace, industrial equipment, electronics, medical, oil and gas, and consumer products.
The key challenges faced by the sheet metal industry include:
- Optimising raw material sheet utilisation to save on raw material cost and therefore overall product cost
- Designing sheet metal parts faster, taking into account manufacturing capabilities/constraints
- Optimising the manufacturing cycle time for sheet metal parts
- Ensuring first time right manufacture every time and minimising rejection and rework
- Ensuring smooth execution of manufacturing activities to meet the delivery date to the end customer
- Ensuring the quality of the finished product irrespective of operators’ skill levels
- Optimising the overall product and project cost
