Sheet Metal Fabrication FAQs

The tolenrance range of sheet metal fabricated parts is ±0.2-0.3 mm.

The K factor is the ratio of the thickness of the neutral layer position of the sheet metal (t) to the overall thickness of the sheet metal part material (T), i.e.: K = t / T . Standard calculation method: Material thickness (t) * 1.66.

The cost of a sheet metal fabrication project depends on design, workmanship, materials, and finishing.
