Get Precise Tolerance, Specifications and Finish Quality, All Managed Under One Roof through Custom

Stainless steel is very malleable, allowing the material to be quickly and easily fabricated in various forms for use in structural, commercial, residential, industrial and decorative constructions. Its extremely high strength-to-weight ratio supports structures like I-beams that occupy less space compared to other traditional options, such as concrete. Structural steel remains to be one of the most affordable building materials available to fabricators in Australia.

Custom stainless steel fabrication process must undergo design to fabrication design to address the specificity of the customisation, and other potential issues that could affect the production and quality of the finished product.

Cold and sleek stainless steel can provide a modern look to any kind of structure. Steel fabricators in Brisbane may use structural steel made almost entirely of recycled material, making it an environment-friendly and economically-viable option. The sustainability of steel is so great that the demolition company may rather offer you to pay for demolishing the buildings that have extensively used structural steel in its construction!

Prefabrication and painting job

For many steelworks, sections and plates are to be shot blasted prior to fabrication, although some fabricators may choose to carry out shot blasting after the sections are cut to length. Surface preparation is also an essential part of any fabrication job, which is done to provide a clean finish or welding, and subsequently producing a keyed surface that can accept paint. Shot is fired at the steel that displaces dirt and scale, and also indents the steel creating a surface which is approximately 70 microns deep. When the paint is sprayed onto the clean abraded surface of the metal, it adheres well and provides a longer life for the paint system. Prefabrication primers can be applied in some cases immediately after sand cleaning to maintain the reactive blast cleaned surface in a rust-free condition till the painting job is undertaken.

Realistic tolerance is important

Realistic tolerances, instead of tight tolerances, will help keep the costs of steel fabricators in Brisbane within limits. Too tight tolerances can add unnecessary costs to custom stainless steel fabrication that could otherwise be avoided. It is also not possible to design every single part to such tight tolerance standards.

Cutting and welding processes

Gas or flame cutting systems may be used to cut components from the steel plate. A mixture of propane and oxygen is used to preheat the metal to its ignition temperature, which is usually 700°C to 900°C for steel. The metal will be bright red hot at this temperature range but well below its melting point. A jet of oxygen is then directed into the preheated area that blows away the slag and enables the jet to pierce and continue cut through the material.

Advanced cutting techniques

Advanced cutting techniques used in custom stainless steel fabrication by Brisbane Metal Products (BMP) include laser, plasma, tube laser, TIG. MIG, submerged arc, flame and water jet across a wide range of material thicknesses, configurations and welding codes that not only provide precision and accuracy but also makes it possible to cut complex steel shapes, without the need for human intervention.

Higher repeatability, traceability and flexibility in custom fabrication

The use of CNC press brakes by custom steel fabricators allows for the fabrication of high-grade components and minimises waste while providing higher repeatability, traceability and flexibility in custom stainless steel fabrication projects, so the steel fabricators in Brisbane can meet the client’s expectations related to the changing requirements.
