Metal Brackets

Noble Industries is projecting a strong 2019

Noble Industries added 40,000 square feet of metal fabrication space in 2017.  We were extremely business when the expansion was complete.  Adding new equipment and moving our Mazak Lasers and Amada Press Brakes to the new area just wasn’t possible till the end of 2017 because of our work load.  In December 2017 and through the first quarter of 2018, machines were moved as time allowed.   The second half of 2018, Noble Industries was able to capitalize on the work flow efficiencies from the additional space.  We are excited and ready to add new customers now that the move is complete.   As the Fabricator article indicates, there are challenges with the increase in costs from tariffs but we are still looking to start and finish 2019 very strong.    https://www.thefabricator.com/article/shopmanagement/2019-forecast-where-do-metal-fabricators-stand-for-the-upcoming-year-

 

Metal Fabrication Case Study for an Automotive Aftermarket Customer

Metal Fabrication Case Study

Customer:   Automotive Aftermarket

Product:  Metal Bracket

Type of Fabrication:  Laser Cutting, Press Brake Metal Forming, Powder Coating, Packaging & Shipping

Problem:  Needed a heavy duty bracket with a lance and formed area which would include a square hole for a carriage bolt

Noble Industries solution:

One of our automotive aftermarket customers came to us with a need for a bracket with a lance and form section to allow a carriage bolt to be used with the part.  A lance and form tooling can be purchased for a punch press or for a brake press.  For our application we created tooling for an Amada press brake form operation.  This part also has an offset and 90 degree bends around the lance and formed area and the part number stamped into the part.
