Metal Fabrication
Technologies
Thin Metal Parts is your metal parts fabrication company. Utilizing chemical milling, chemical etching, electroforming, and laser cutting technologies we can develop custom metal parts for numerous industries and countless applications.
While other metal fabricators may specialize in one of these metal fabrication techniques, utilizing multiple approaches gives us a completely unique hybrid precision part. It also allows us to recommend the metal fabrication technique that will best suit your needs and budget, such as:
Chemical Milling
Our chemical milling and chemical etching is done entirely in-house to speed up delivery and reduce costs. Spanning a wide array of applications and designs, we have the flexibility to do both small batch and large volume production.
Electroforming
We use a proprietary electroforming process to create highly complicated, ultra-thin, tab-free, and burr-free component parts without graining. Furthermore, unlike other processes, our electroforming technique cuts production time down from weeks to hours, saving our clients time and money.
Laser Cutting
Our industry-leading laser cutting equipment allows us to fabricate metal with desired edge quality and tolerances using a large selection of metal types with openings as small as 20 microns.
Products
We are experts in custom metal fabrication for the aerospace, medical, solar, manufacturing, defense, and scientific instrument sectors. Our processes allow us to fabricate parts with tight tolerances, unmatched precision, and high repeatability for clients while also providing excellent customer service on budget. The result is innovation and flexibility across a broader product offering that is unmatched by other metal fabricators in the industry.
We serve as metal fabricators for the aerospace, computer, and electronics industries. At Thin Metal Parts we can produce metal parts to meet DFARS and RoHS compliance or any other required specifications while working within your required timeframe and budget constraints. Whether it is developing a prototype component or completing large scale component production, Thin Metal Parts is the industry-leading metal fabrication expert.
Whether it is a soft metal (like aluminum, magnesium, brass, or copper) or a hard metal (like nickel, steel, chrome, titanium, or stainless-steel) Thin Metal Parts can fabricate metal parts to any specification you desire for encoder wheels, mesh and sieves, electrical connectors, gaskets, and other precision component parts. In fact, we can fabricate metal components ranging in thickness from 0.0003” to 0.120” with through-holes as small as 12.5 microns.
We employ state-of-the-art metal fabrication technology as well as some of the brightest minds in the business to offer unparalleled innovation. Simply put, we can make parts that you cannot get anywhere else. If you are looking for custom metal fabrication experts, let us prove why we have earned our reputation as the best.
