Custom Metal Parts Services
Metal fabrication refers to any process that cuts, shapes, or molds raw or semi-finished metal into a final product. There are several metal fabrication processes that can be used, each of which depends on the starting material and the end product. At Reading Plastic, we offer precision stamping, die cutting, CNC machining, and OEM replacement.
- Stamping: Blank pieces of flat sheet metal are fed into a stamping press to form an indentation. Stamping operations include bending, punching, embossing, blanking, coining, and flanging.
- Die Cutting: Straight lines are cut through metal with two blades to form a shape. This process results in clean edges and no chips with minimal material waste and is suitable for creating slender, delicate parts.
- CNC Machining: Our metal CNC shop produces reliable, precision parts with signature tight tolerances to meet the highest standards. Utilizing the top technology and equipment, we provide CNC milling, turning, and grinding processes to meet your needs.
- OEM Replacement: When your machines break down, you shouldn’t have to wait for OEM parts to arrive. Reading Plastic & Metal has the capability to identify and replicate OEM parts in a timely manner.
Metal Materials
At Reading Plastic & Metal, we offer choices of aluminum, brass, copper, titanium, and stainless steel to produce your metal parts to any custom specification. Each metal material comes with its own set of advantages, and depending on the project, Reading Plastic & Metal can help find the perfect fit for you.
- Aluminum: Aluminum is a lightweight, durable, relatively soft metal that still maintains a good strength-to-weight ratio. It is both non-magnetic and non-flammable, has a low density, and is a good conductor of heat and electricity.
- Brass: Brass’s unique properties make it one of the most widely used metal alloys, including durability, corrosion resistance, and excellent machinability.
- Copper: Copper has excellent electrical conductivity, high corrosion resistance, and is easy to machine.
- Stainless Steel: Stainless steel is a steel alloy that contains at least 10% chromium. The addition of chromium creates an immaculate surface finish and exceptional corrosion resistance superior to that of carbon steels.
- Titanium: Titanium is lightweight with high strength, excellent fatigue performance, and high resistance to aggressive environments. Titanium parts last longer and perform better than other metals, remaining free of rust and degeneration.
