Fabrication of a Steel Cart Frame
At Metal Coatings & Mfg. Co., we provide complex metalworking services for our customers’ most specialized projects. This was exemplified when we took on this project from a client in the sewer and drain cleaning industry. The client needed a precision-machined fabricated steel frame.
First, a 2D CAD drawing was created according to our customer’s specifications. We built this frame from start to finish, using every aspect of our shop. These included our saw, shear, punching center, laser, tube bender, machining center, lathe, press brake, iron worker, grinders, welders, powder coating booth, and oven. We constructed it entirely using HRPO steel (high-strength low-alloy), and when completed, it measured 46″ high by 14″ wide by 36″ deep. The tightest tolerances were held to ±0.030 throughout the frame; with ±0.005″ achieved on certain components. After machining, this steel frame was deburred; assembled; and powder coated with silver vein powder in order to ensure that it met the highest quality standards, with in-depth dimensional and visual inspections conducted throughout the process.
The entire project was completed and delivered to our customer in Minnesota in just four weeks. For more information on this steel frame, see the table below or contact us directly.
