Whether you need single functional sheet metal prototypes or complete assembled sheet metal products, LC Rapid customs sheet metal fabrication services offer an affordable and super quality sheet metal fabrication plant solution for your manufacturing needs. We have the full capability to handle every stage of your sheet metal fabrication projects, including bending, lasering cutting, punching, welding, stamping, assembly and other precision sheet metal manufacturing processes. Sheet metal is one of the commonly-used methods of manufacturing metal parts. Designers and engineers use it to create a wide variety of products with different shapes and sizes, and regard it as an ideal option for producing low to high volumes of the metal parts. Sheet metal is widely used in manufacturing different parts of custom auto sheet metal fabrication, from the smallest automotive interior component to entire enclosures for electronic devices.
Custom metal fabrication services is the process of forming a metal sheet mechanically. The sheet metal fabrication service processes of forming parts include: lasering cutting, turret punching, folding, forming, bending, rolling, welding, assembly process. The sheet metal parts can be sandblasted, brushed, anodized, powder coated, painted, and etc. Sheet metal parts are widely used in the fields of electronics, mechanical, telecommunications, automotive industry, consumer goods and so on. In detail, as one of the top sheet metal fabrication companies, our custom sheet metal fabrication can be applied in aerospace sheet metal fabrication, auto sheet metal fabrication, steel sheet fabrication and sheet metal fabrication tolerances.
Low Cost
Sheet metal fabrication generally has a significantly lower material and set-up cost when compared to machining.
Durability
Sheet parts are highly durable that make them suitable for functional prototypes and end-use production.
Large-scale Production Performance
Sheet metal machining is an ideal process from a single component up to custom production runs 10.000+ pieces.
Rapid Turnaround
Using the advanced Sheet Metal fabrication machines, we can produce light weight, high strength parts in just a few days.
Custom Finishes
Select from a wide array of finishes, including brushing, polishing, anodizing, plating, powder coating, and painting.

Anodizing, an electro-chemical oxidation process of aluminum and other non-ferrous metals. The anodizing film can improve the wear resistance.
Sand blasting is used to blast part surface with abrasive material. Typically, sand blasting is used to remove machine marks, scratches, impurities, serves as a preliminary step that prepares for later painting or anodizing process.
The brushing process is to use abrasive brushes and chemical corrosion to get a unidirectional satin finish. The process can also be used for decoration. Brushing is typically used on stainless steel, copper and aluminum
Polishing is a surface treatment process to yield a glossy surface on metals like stainless steel, aluminum, and copper. It can serves to reduce surface roughness and improve the surface luster.
Sheet Metal fabrication is crucial to the electronics industry in decades. We can make enclosures or other components in aluminum, stainless steel, steel, brass, and copper for electronic products that need to be in rapid turn-around and low cost.
The applications for sheet metal fabrication when it comes to agriculture solutions are virtually unlimited. we offer a range of materials including aluminum, stainless steel, mild steel, and copper for every applications from livestock management, smart sensors, automated crop farming, and watering systems
Sheet metal is the preferred option to fabricate high quality, accurate consumer products for clients with it’s versatile materials and processes. Whether you need video game equipment, a home appliances such as refrigerators, freezers or any other types of consumer goods, our quick-turnaround service can bring your design to market fast with attractive pricing and high quality.
LC Rapid builds many kinds of custom sheet metal brackets, including L brackets, U brackets, Z brackets, and mounting brackets, display brackets, and more. We can also apply electroplating, anodizing, powder coating on sheet metal components, making them have a higher degree of corrosion resistance.
The chassis we fabricate are typically used to as barriers for electrical solutions. Sheet metal is a cost-effective way to fabricate custom chassis, including computer chassis and mechanical testing equipment chassis. All of them are made with precise dimensions and lightweight.
We offer custom sheet metal enclosures, including card cage enclosures, computer enclosures, rack mounts enclosures, and more.
