Custom Sheet Metal Bending Parts Fabrication For Concrete Mixer Truck

A concrete mixer truck is a heavy-duty vehicle that is used to transport and mix concrete. The truck consists of a chassis, a mixer drum, and a number of other components, all of which are made from sheet metal. The sheet metal parts of the truck are subject to a great deal of wear and tear, so they need to be made from a strong and durable material.

In this project, we were tasked with fabricating custom sheet metal parts for a concret e mixer truck. The parts were made from Q345B carbon steel, which is a high-strength steel that is commonly used in construction applications. There are 3000 pieces of the parts with a total weight of 150 tons.

Fabrication Process

The fabrication process for the custom sheet metal parts for the concrete mixer truck involved the following steps:

  • Straightening: The first step was to straighten the sheet metal. This was done using a variety of methods, including hydraulic presses and roller straighteners.
  • Laser cutting: Once the sheet metal was straightened, it was laser cut to the precise dimensions required. This was done using a high-powered laser that could cut through the thick Q345B steel.
  • Bending: The laser-cut parts were then bent into the required shapes. This was done using a variety of bending machines, including press brakes and hydraulic benders.

Quality Control

Quality control was an essential aspect of the project, given the critical nature of the parts in the concrete mixer truck. The parts were subject to rigorous inspection throughout the fabrication process to ensure that they met the required specifications. The laser-cut parts were inspected for accuracy and cut quality, while the bent parts were checked for dimensional accuracy and consistency.

This project demonstrates our ability to fabricate custom sheet metal parts for a variety of applications. We have the expertise and the resources to handle even the most challenging projects. If you need custom sheet metal parts fabricated, please contact us today.
