- Surface finishing coordination powder coating, e-coating, plating, anodizing, brushing, and silk-screen printing
Sheet Metal Parts Buyer Checklist
- Specify material grade and thickness in the drawing — material selection drives tooling, bending force, and finishing options
- Define tolerance class laser-cut features hold ±0.1 mm, machined features hold ±0.05 mm; tight tolerances add cost
- Mark bend radii minimum bend radius depends on material and thickness; specify inside radius in your drawing
- Indicate welding and assembly requirements weld locations, fastener callouts, and assembly tolerances must be defined up front
- For outdoor or corrosive environments, specify surface finish and coating thickness to ensure long service life

FAQ
What is the typical lead time for custom sheet metal parts?
Prototypes: 7–10 working days after drawing approval. Production: 3–4 weeks depending on volume, material thickness, and secondary finishing.
What tolerances can VOLCRIX hold on sheet metal parts?
±0.1 mm on laser-cut and bent features; ±0.05 mm on machined features; tighter tolerances available for precision components.
What finishing options are available for sheet metal parts?
Powder coating, e-coating, wet painting, zinc plating, nickel plating, chrome plating, anodizing (for aluminum), brushing, and silk-screen printing.
What is the difference between laser cutting and stamping for sheet metal?
Laser cutting is ideal for prototypes and low-to-medium volumes with no tooling cost. Stamping with progressive dies is more cost-effective for high-volume production above 5,000 pieces.
