Sheet Metal Fabrication

Laser Cut and Bent Sheet Metal Parts for Automation Machines

These are laser cut and press-brake bent sheet metal parts for industrial automation equipment: machine guards, sensor brackets, cable trays, cover panels and mounting plates. Aluminum and stainless steel are standard, with anodized or powder-coated finishes. They suit automation integrators and machine builders who need quick-turn, accurate sheet parts that fit extrusion frames and standard components.

Manufacturing

How we make this part

Process, material options and inspection for laser cut and bent sheet metal parts for automation machines.

Automation projects change often, so we cut directly from your flat pattern or 3D model with no tooling, and parts can be revised between builds at no extra cost. Slots matched to aluminum profile T-nuts, sensor mounting patterns and cable pass-throughs are cut in one program. Bending on CNC press brakes holds consistent flange lengths. Self-clinching hardware can be pressed in for direct mounting.

Aluminum 5052 keeps guards and brackets light and bends cleanly; anodizing or powder coating protects it. Stainless 304 suits washdown and food-handling machines and resists scratching. Perforated or polycarbonate-window guards can be combined with sheet frames. Sharp edges are deburred because operators touch these parts, and hems are used on exposed edges where specified.

Parts are checked at first article for bend angles, hole positions and fit against standard profiles or sample components. Critical dimensions are 100% inspected, and parts are labeled by station or assembly for easier installation. Typical uses include safety guards, sensor brackets, cable covers, control box panels and feeder chutes.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you make sheet metal parts to fit aluminum extrusion frames?

Yes. Tell us the profile series, such as 20, 30 or 40 mm slot systems, and we will cut slots and holes to suit standard T-nuts and fasteners. Sending your frame model helps us check hole positions before cutting.

How quickly can automation sheet metal parts be turned around?

Because no tooling is needed, simple laser cut and bent parts are usually among our fastest jobs, often within the typical 3–7 working-day prototype window. Powder coating or anodizing adds time. Quotes are returned within 24 hours on business days.

How do I get a quote for laser cut and bent sheet metal parts for automation machines?

Send a 3D model (STEP or IGES) and a 2D drawing with tolerances, material, finish and quantity through the quote form or by email. An engineer replies within 24 hours on business days with price, lead time and any DFM suggestions.
