Metal Fabrication

Metal Fabrication Services Cambridge

GLW Engineering provides metal fabrication services for customers in Cambridge and across Cambridgeshire, from individual bespoke components to larger structural and architectural steelwork. By bringing design advice, 3D CAD, site surveys, fabrication, finishing, delivery and on-site installation together where required, projects can move from concept to completed metalwork with fewer handovers between different suppliers. Whether you already have detailed drawings or are starting with an initial idea, our team can work with architects, structural engineers, contractors, businesses and private customers to develop metalwork that fits the intended space, application and wider project requirements.

We have been fabricating for many years and offer expertise, and a range of services created to assist our customers throughout the entire fabrication process, and we are really helpful. Not when we want your business, but always. That’s why we have managed to keep customers from when we very first started the business. From plate metal to welding wire, laser cutting and raw materials, there’s no need to find fabrication shops; the team at GLW Engineers have got you covered.

We specialise in the whole process, from designing and building creative, practical and one-off works in metal to exact specifications in a timely and professional manner. Please take a look at our portfolio for some examples of our past work. We cover a wide area, including Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridge, Peterborough, Hewmarket, Ely, Huntingdon and much more, allowing us to help as many people as possible with our range of services. We have the latest facilities and computer programs to ensure a quality build every time.

Metal Fabrication Cambridge

Welding

Our experienced fabricators work with mild metal, aluminium, sheet metal and heavier structural metal. Using welding processes, we can manufacture individual components as well as complete fabricated assemblies, including staircases, handrails, railings, gates, frameworks and other bespoke metalwork for Cambridge projects.

Cutting

Accurate cutting is an important part of producing fabricated metalwork to the required dimensions. Our capabilities include plasma cutting alongside conventional fabrication methods, allowing us to prepare other metals for components, frames and structures before forming, welding and assembly.

Bending

Our bending capabilities allow sheet and other metal sections to be formed into the angles, curves and profiles required by the design. Whether producing a one-off component or parts for a larger fabricated assembly, our team works from agreed drawings and specifications so each section is prepared correctly for the next stage of fabrication.

Finishing

Options include powder coating, painting and polishing, with other surface preparation and corrosion protection services available where appropriate for metalwork used outdoors, in commercial premises or in demanding industrial environments.

Our Expertise

At GLW Engineering And Construction Ltd, our dedicated team pride ourselves on our experience and expertise in metal fabrication as well as providing responsible production. Our engineers are highly skilled and can use many materials, including the use of ferrous metals such as mild steel and carbon steel, and non-ferrous materials, such as aluminium and brass. We take quality control seriously, ensuring that every project is completed to the high standard that we are known for.

Glw Engineering Steel Fabrication

Our fabrication services support aerospace and medical sectors, as well as construction, architecture, manufacturing, engineering, agriculture, commercial premises and private projects in Cambridge and the wider region. The work can range from structural steelwork and fabricated supports to staircases, railings, balustrades, gates, architectural features, industrial components and one-off bespoke items. Because each job is assessed individually, we can work with customers who already have detailed fabrication drawings as well as those who require design input before manufacture begins.

Glw Engineering Steel Fabrication

Metal fabrication is the process of cutting, shaping, and assembling metal structures from raw materials including stainless steel. Steel is one of the most commonly used metals in fabrication due to its durability and strength. Here we xplore the various methods of steel and metal fabrication and provide an overview of their applications, including mild steel fabrication, as well as steel, aluminium, other sheet metal and metals.

There are different methods of steel and metal fabrication, this includes cutting, forming and joining. Cutting is the first step of metal fabrication, and it involves using cutting tools to cut raw materials into the desired shape and size. The most common cutting methods used in metal fabrication are shearing, sawing and laser cutting.

Forming involves bending, shaping, and manipulating metal into different shapes and sizes. The common forming methods of metal fabrication are press brake, roll forming and stamping. Joining is the process of connecting two or more pieces of metal together. The most common joining methods used in metal fabrication include: Joining is the process of connecting two or more pieces of metal together. The common joining methods used in metal and steel fabrication include welding, soldering and riveting.

When it comes to steel and metal fabrication, at GLW Engineering, everything that we do is driven by quality; our strengths include understanding customers’ exact requirements and specifications, from structural steelwork to steel beams, as well as creating custom work that is of the highest standards; we also provide creative and design if necessary.
