Laser-Cut Stainless Steel Water Feature Tank for Independent Fabricator

Laser-Cut Stainless Steel Water Feature Tank for Independent Fabricator

THE BRIEF

Our customer is an independent fabricator without their own cutting or bending equipment, so they subcontracted the metalwork for a water feature tank out to us. They needed two tanks cut and formed accurately, ready for them to weld up and install.

Our customer is an independent fabricator without their own cutting or bending equipment, so they subcontracted the metalwork for a water feature tank out to us. They needed two tanks cut and formed accurately, ready for them to weld up and install.

WHAT WE DID

We laser cut the flat profile from 2mm stainless steel DP1, then formed it on the CNC press brake. Because the panels were going to be welded together afterwards, the bent profile had to be held to a high tolerance — any inconsistency would have left gaps at the welded joints. Laser cutting combined with precise press brake forming gave the accuracy needed for a clean, tight-fitting weld.

THE RESULT

Both tanks were delivered within the 5-day turnaround — another job completed on time for this repeat customer, ready for them to weld and install.
