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 […]

Alright — I’m the guy who’s been elbow-deep in sheet metal for more than a decade at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory. Ten-plus years messing with bends that spring back, weld seams that look like bad handwriting until you grind them smooth, and powder coating booths that are happy one day and picky the next. […]

I’m a senior engineer at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory — been under the press brake and beside the laser for more than a decade. I’ve bent parts at 2 a.m., cursed springback at 5 a.m., and fixed vendor drawings over morning tea. This post is exactly the kind of thing I’d say to a […]

I’m a shop guy — been at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for over a decade now. Bending, punching, laser, milling, welding, powder coat, assembly — you name it, I’ve hands-on’d it. This is not a glossy marketing puff; it’s the stuff I’d tell a junior engineer over tea between shifts, or the notes I […]

I’m a senior engineer at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory. Been bending, welding, powder-coating, and arguing over fixtures for more than a decade — so yeah, this is not marketing copy. This is tea-break truth. If you want the short version: precision laser processing gives you predictable tolerances, small kerf loss, and repeatable edge quality […]

I’m Li (call me Li-gang on the shop floor), senior engineer at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory — been bending, welding, powder coating, and arguing with CAD files for twelve years. I’ve stuck copper-tip thermocouples on nests at 3 a.m., cranked CNC offsets until my fingers cramped, and watched a whole press line choke on […]

Been at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for twelve years now — bending, welding, powder coating, late-night running orders when the delivery truck says “in two days” and the client says “we needed it yesterday.” I’m the kind of engineer who measures by feel as much as by calipers. This piece is exactly that: straight […]

I’ve been hanging around Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for more than a decade now. Stainless steel, aluminum, copper—you name it, I’ve bent, cut, welded, or cursed at it. Sometimes I think the machines know me better than my family. And let me tell you: when it comes to stainless steel custom metal fabrication, people […]

I’ve been in this game over ten years now, at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory. Sometimes I still smell burnt stainless steel in my dreams. That’s how deep the laser cutting fumes get into your head. Anyway, the boss asked me to share some of the pitfalls and little tricks I’ve learned about custom laser […]

I’ll be honest — when they first told me, “Old Zhang, write something for the factory blog,” my first reaction was: me? Writing? I’ve been bending, welding, grinding, cursing at stuck bolts for more than ten years, not writing essays. But maybe that’s exactly why I should. Because many folks reading CAD drawings in an […]
