Custom Sheet Metal Fabrication Services
With our advanced laser cutters, press brakes, and welding machines, we can produce sheet metal parts in any quantity. Whether it’s small batches or large volumes, we guarantee fast and high-quality delivery.
Laser Cutting
Laser cutting uses a focused laser beam to cut or engrave materials by melting or vaporizing them, enabling clean edges and precise reproduction of complex designs.
Stamping
Stamping is a manufacturing process that uses dies and presses to form flat metal sheets into complex three-dimensional shapes through cold-forming operations.
Bending
Bending is a metal forming process that applies force to sheet metal to create shapes such as U-, V-, or channel profiles, accommodating a range of material thicknesses.
Punching
Punching is a fabrication process that uses a punch and die to shear metal, producing precise holes or shapes with clean edges.
Welding
Welding is a process that joins two or more metal components using heat, pressure, or both, creating strong and durable bonds for structural applications.
Riveting
Riveting is a semi-permanent joining method that uses mechanical fasteners to connect sheet metal parts, offering a faster and more cost-effective alternative to welding.

How Long Does It Take To Receive My Custom Parts?
The lead time for BaoSheng’s custom sheet metal parts depends on part complexity, quantity, and the fabrication processes involved. Simple parts can often be delivered in as little as 3 business days after order confirmation.
For larger volumes or complex assemblies, production time may be longer. When you submit your design through our online quoting system, we provide a detailed delivery estimate along with your quote, factoring in current workload and project requirements.
At BaoSheng, we aim to minimize turnaround time without compromising quality, ensuring your custom sheet metal parts are delivered quickly and meet the highest fabrication standards.
What’s K Factor In Sheet Metal?
In sheet metal fabrication, the K factor is a critical value that affects the accuracy of bend allowances when calculating the flat length of a sheet before bending. The K factor is the ratio of the neutral axis location to the material thickness. When you bend it, the inner surface gets squashed and the outer surface stretches, but the neutral axis doesn’t get stressed.
It is very important to choose the right K factor, because it decides how much the metal will stretch when it is bent. K factor values usually range from 0.3 to 0.5, depending on the material and how it is bent. If you calculate the K factor accurately, you can be sure that your bent sheet metal parts will fit precisely. This will make sure that they are the right size, work well, and are of high quality.
What Is The Difference Between Sheet Metal & Plate Metal?
The primary difference between sheet metal and plate metal lies in their thickness and applications. Sheet metal is thin and flat, typically ranging from 0.006″ to 0.25″ in thickness. Its malleability makes it ideal for precision bending and shaping, commonly used in automotive bodies, aircraft panels, electronics, and household appliances.
Plate metal, in contrast, is thicker—generally starting at 0.25″ and extending to several inches. It is used where strength and durability are critical, such as in building structures, bridges, and heavy machinery. The added thickness of plate metal provides excellent resistance to deformation, making it suitable for structural and high-load applications.
Understanding the difference between sheet metal and plate metal helps in selecting the right material for your fabrication project, ensuring both functionality and performance.
