Metalwork
Fabrication, assembly and construction of structures in metal, steel, aluminium, cunifer, copper or special alloys
Light metalwork
- •Thin gauges (sheet metal), used for panels, ducting, casings
- •Medium metalwork
- •More robust structures such as frames, machinery supports, skids
Heavy metalwork
- •Large load-bearing structures (bridges, buildings, ship hulls)
Main processes:
- •Cutting (laser, plasma, oxy-fuel)
- •Bending (press brakes)
- •Roll bending (for cylindrical shapes)
- •Welding (MIG/MAG, TIG, electrode)
Assembly and installation
- •Surface finishing (painting, galvanising, sandblasting)
Support structures for chillers and HVAC units:
- •Air ducting (ducts)
- •Bases and skids for systems
- •Structures for cold rooms
- •Hull components and superstructures
In the naval sector it is essential to ensure:
- •Anti-corrosion protection (marine paints, special treatments)
- •Resistance to vibrations and fatigue
- •Precision in couplings
