Curved Sheet Metal Manufacturing

Curved Sheet Metal Manufacturing is a multi-step process that processes sheet metal into curved, curved lines or compound curved surfaces through laser cutting, CNC bending, rounding, stretching and welding.Compared with traditional flat sheet metal, curved surface structure is not only more beautiful in appearance, but also more functional, durable and space utilization.

Under the background of rapid upgrading of industrial equipment, more and more enterprises hope that the shell structure not only has a sense of design, but also can carry stable, safe and sturdy mechanical properties.Because of this, Curved Sheet Metal Manufacturing has become an irreplaceable capability for equipment manufacturing.

Machinable metal materials include:

Cold Rolled Steel Sheet (SPCC)

Hot dip galvanized sheet (SGCC / SECC)

Aluminum plate (AL5052 / AL6061)

Stainless steel (SS304 / SS316)

Alloy steel or user-specified material

Xinyang has a variety of precision production equipment, which can realize high-quality curved surface machining on different materials and thicknesses, so that products with high manufacturing difficulty and high precision requirements can also be easily landed.

Core Function

Dongguan Xinyang summed up several of the most critical functional values of curved sheet metal in different industrial applications in many years of practice:

1. Precision Curved Surface Forming Capability

Curved structures typically require:

High consistency

No workpiece deformation

Smooth bending curvature

High forming accuracy for complex contours

Relying on AMADA CNC punching machine, CNC bending machine, rounding machine and laser cutting equipment, Xinyang can realize the molding requirements of small R, large R, hyperboloid, multi-stage transition, etc., and meet the strict requirements of industrial control box, display housing, etc. for the appearance of curved surface precision.

2. Increased strength and stability

The characteristic of curved surfaces is to disperse stresses, making metal structures perform better in terms of load bearing, compression resistance, and earthquake resistance.

For industrial equipment, this means:

Higher extrusion resistance

Lower deformation risk

Longer service life

For medical equipment cabinets, industrial switch housings, electrical control cabinets and other products that require long-term high-intensity operation, Curved Sheet Metal Manufacturing can significantly improve the structural safety factor.

3. Better appearance texture, suitable for high-end equipment

The curved surface structure has a more design feel than the traditional straight shape.Curved shells are especially popular in applications where brand image and product recognition are needed, such as:

medical instruments

IT.(intelligent terminal)

High-end consumer equipment

Display equipment

Touch display terminal

Xinyang has automatic spraying line and silk screen line, which can achieve uniform color, fine surface texture and consistent luster on the curved surface structure, so that the overall visual effect of the equipment is higher.

4. Better heat dissipation structure design

Part of the curved sheet metal structure adopts a specific arc design, which can optimize the internal space layout, so that:

More reasonable arrangement of heat dissipation holes

Smoother airflow channels

Equipment temperature control is more stable

This is especially critical in industrial control boxes and communication equipment housings.

5. Modularity and assembly compatibility

Through precision CNC bending and surface forming, all hole positions, slots and structural edges can be ensured accurately, making component assembly more efficient and reducing the difficulty and risk of customers in later assembly.

Application scenarios

Curved Sheet Metal Manufacturing is widely used in all kinds of industrial equipment, combined with Xinyang's flagship products, mainly including:

1. Industrial Control Chassis

The industrial control box needs to be stable in structure, anti-seismic, dustproof and excellent in heat dissipation. The application of curved sheet metal can improve the overall strength and make the appearance more modern.

2. Switch and communication equipment housing (Network Switch Housing)

Stable heat dissipation, lightweight structure and high precision hole location are the advantages of curved surface design.

3. LCD Monitor Enclosure

The cambered shell can be visually more beautiful, so that the whole machine has more commercial value, suitable for industrial control screens, advertising machines, medical display screens, etc.

4. Power Control Cabinet

Curved edge design can further distribute stress and improve cabinet strength.

5. Medical equipment enclosures

Medical equipment pays attention to texture, stability and safety. Curved sheet metal can improve the touch and user experience of the whole machine.

6. Automatic equipment protective cover

Curved surfaces reduce the risk of sharp corners colliding with the outside world and improve safety.
