Understanding the Role of Metal Bending in the Sheet Metal Processing Chain The metal bending process determines the structural precision and assembly compatibility of sheet metal components. It acts as the critical link connecting the cutting and welding stages, directly influencing the overall line productivity, yield rate, and delivery cycle. Within a typical sheet metal fabrication workflow, the bending […]

Overview of Laser Cutting Principles and Their Link to Manufacturing Efficiency Laser cutting focuses a high-energy-density beam to instantly convert light energy into heat, melting or vaporizing the material and expelling it with assist gas. This enables high-precision, high-speed, non-contact machining — dramatically improving both manufacturing efficiency and cut quality. Physical Mechanism and Energy Conversion […]
How to Evaluate the Cost Difference Between Automatic and Manual Welding The key to evaluating the cost difference between automatic and manual welding lies in balancing equipment investment, labor expenses, and maintenance costs. Most studies show that automation achieves a higher ROI in mass production, typically recovering its investment within 1–2 years. Cost evaluation is […]
I’ve been hands-on in sheet metal and precision parts manufacturing for over 15 years — folding, welding, finishing, you name it — here at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory (yes, that Baoxuan). This time I want to cut through the sales-speak and explain, in practical terms, how to powder coat metal enclosures so your project […]
I’m a senior engineer at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory, with about 18 years on the shop floor — from setting up punch dies at dawn to debugging a CNC back gauge at midnight. This time I’ll be blunt: press brake forming is deceptively simple on paper, but it can break your schedule (and your […]
I’m an engineer at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory with, well, more than a dozen years on the shop floor — press brakes, CNC mills, laser cells, powder booths — I’ve run most of them, fixed most of them, and yes, I’ve cursed at tooling that should’ve never been designed that way. This time, let’s […]
I’m a senior engineer at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory (call me old-school), been on the shop floor for just over a decade — bending, welding, powder coating, assembly, and yes, machining late into the night when a customer’s drawing needs “one more tweak.” I’ve run lathes, set up bar feeders, swapped collets at 2 […]
I’m not going to dress this up. I’ve been bending, welding, fixturing, and cursing over parts at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for about 12 years — real hands-on time, not powerpoint hours. We’ve gone from one-off prototypes to packaged production runs for clients that think CAD equals magic. It doesn’t. Tools wear, aluminum moves, […]
Hey — I’m the old hands-in-the-oil type. I’ve been at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for over a decade now (11 years on the shop floor, brushing swarf off my arms, arguing with chuck jaws at 3 a.m.). I do bending, turning, welding, powder coating, assembly — the whole mess. This is not marketing fluff. […]
I’ve been turning wrenches, checking tooling, and arguing with ovens at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for a little over a decade now — 12 years on the floor, if you count the nights I slept in the office during a customer rush. I’m a senior engineer (not a salesperson), and I’m writing like I’d […]
