Project Overview

Customer Requirement

A typical OEM project begins with drawing review, material confirmation, process route planning and inspection requirements.

01 // Requirement

304 or 316 stainless steel

02 // Requirement

Corrosion-resistant finish for marine or outdoor use

03 // Requirement

Machining, forming, welding or polishing route

04 // Requirement

Scratch-controlled packaging

Manufacturing Process

From Blank to Finished Component

The exact route depends on drawing, material and quantity, but the steps below show the manufacturing logic buyers can expect.

Step 01

Material Grade Confirmation

Stainless steel grade is reviewed against corrosion exposure, strength and finish requirements.

Step 02

Blank Preparation

The blank is cut, sawed or formed with allowance for machining and finishing.

Step 03

Machining or Forming

Holes, slots, threads, edges and functional surfaces are machined or formed according to drawing.

Step 04

Welding if Needed

Welded features are controlled for alignment, strength and cleanup before final finishing.

Step 05

Polishing and Passivation

Visible surfaces can be polished, brushed or passivated to improve appearance and corrosion behavior.

Step 06

Inspection and Protective Packing

Dimensions, surface finish and visible faces are checked before separated packaging.
