Someone asked me last week if you could powder coat carbon fiber. I nearly spat my tea out. Not because it’s a stupid question, but it’s the kind that sounds simple until you’ve been standing in front of an oven at two hundred degrees, wondering if you’re about to melt a customer’s “high-tech” part. There […]

You won’t believe what some guys use to clean powder coats-once saw a guy bring brake cleaner. I’m not making it up. He says, “It gets oil off the floor, so it should get dirt off this panel.” Two days later, half the gloss was gone and the color looked like old concrete. We’ve all […]

I’ve been standing near powder booths long enough to know the smell of hot paint better than my own breakfast. Been with Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for more than ten years now. From bending to welding, from polishing to assembly, I’ve touched nearly every part that passed through our hands. But powder coating that’s […]

I still remember one of the first sets of aluminum wheels we coated at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory almost ten years ago. The customer came in with four worn-out rims, faded and corroded from years on the road, and asked if we could make them look new again. I smiled because I already knew […]

I’ve been working at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for over ten years, so I’ve seen a lot when it comes to precision sheet metal work. From cutting and bending to welding and powder coating, I’ve worked with it all. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that choosing the right supplier for your […]

So, you have got a job to do some high-precision sheet metal work, right? Now, when I say “high-precision,” you probably think of laser cutting, the perfect tolerances, and the shiny final product. But here’s the thing: after spending more than a decade at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory, working with OEM customers, suppliers, and […]

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 […]

You know, after a long day when the machines finally wind down and the shop floor starts smelling more like scorched metal than hard work, we all grab some tea and kick off the usual half-serious griping. Someone always pipes up with, “If those drawings were done by folks who’ve actually handled a sheet of […]

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 […]

The other day, over tea in the workshop office, a client looked at me and asked, “Do you think it’s really worth outsourcing our precision sheet metal work?”He said it casually, but I could tell he’d been chewing on that question for weeks. His production manager had one opinion, the finance guy another, and the […]
