Our Military Metal Fabrication Services
MA Steel Fab provides a full suite of services to produce custom military parts and assemblies under one roof. Our integrated approach keeps your project on track and on spec with the following:
Laser Cutting
We achieve the tight tolerances required for complex military components, frames, and brackets using our TRUMPF TruLaser 3030 system. Our precision laser cutting handles materials up to 60 by 120 inches, delivering clean edges that minimize the need for secondary operations.
CNC Forming
Our press brake capabilities bend and form high-strength steels and alloys to exact specifications for vehicle parts, structural components, and assemblies. We work with material thicknesses from thin-gauge sheet metal to heavy structural plates.
Welding
Our D1.1 Structural Certified fabricators and AWS-certified welders provide MIG and TIG welding services to create durable frames, mounts, and enclosures essential for defense applications. We weld stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, and other metals to meet your unique project requirements.
3D Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Support
We collaborate with you to optimize components for manufacturability, performance, and cost-effectiveness. Our expert design team can work with your prints or help develop solutions that meet your requirements.
Finishing Services
We coordinate powder coating and durable finishes for enhanced protection against harsh environments and corrosion. While finishing is handled through our trusted partners, we manage the entire process to maintain quality standards.
Custom Fabrication for Mission-Critical Components
Every defense project has unique requirements, and we’re equipped to handle custom requests from prototype to production. Our capabilities support projects at any scale:
- Material expertise: We work with durable materials used in defense projects, including high-strength steel, heavy-gauge aluminum, stainless steel, and other specialized alloys. Our team understands how different metals perform under stress and in demanding environments.
- Prototype to production: Whether you need initial prototypes, first articles, or full-scale production runs, we have the capacity to deliver your solutions. Our equipment and processes scale efficiently without sacrificing precision or quality control.
