I’ve been at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for more than ten years now, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned—it’s that “high precision” sounds clean and simple on paper, but on the shop floor it’s anything but. Customers see a neat CAD drawing, a tolerance note ±0.05, maybe a surface finish Ra 1.6 written […]

I’ve been at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory long enough that stainless steel dust feels like seasoning on my clothes. Bending metal — especially stainless — sounds straightforward if you’ve only read about it in CAD notes. But once you’re standing at the press brake, hand on the pedal, it’s another story. The springback, the […]

Working in sheet metal for over a decade at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory, I’ve seen every kind of roll bar imaginable. Not the flashy “look-at-me” ones, but the ones that actually keep a person alive when things go sideways on the track or off-road. Let me tell you — making a roll bar isn’t […]

I’ve been at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for, what, more than a decade now? Lost count after the tenth Mid-Autumn barbecue we had in the workshop yard. Anyway — if you’ve been in OEM sheet metal assembly only from the CAD screen side, you might think it’s just: cut, bend, weld, paint, ship. Ha. […]

I’ve been bending stainless at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory for more than ten years. Some days the press brake behaves; other days it acts like it has a sense of humor. That’s normal. Drawings are tidy; stainless isn’t. So here’s the stuff I tell new process engineers — the real-world notes behind CNC sheet […]

Back when I first touched a CNC press brake, I thought bending was the easy part. Cut the sheet, program the angles, step on the pedal — done. Yeah, right. Fast forward a decade at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory and I’ve seen just about every bracket nightmare you can think of: warped stainless, holes […]

When someone says “metal assembly,” half the time they’re thinking about the shiny finished box. But if you’ve actually put one together — I mean on the floor, not in CAD — you know there’s a dozen ways to get from a flat sheet to a functional enclosure, and each has its little traps.We’ve been […]

Metal Parts Assembly: Why this still trips up buyers (and how to stop tripping) Alright—pull up a chair, pour the tea, and let’s get real. I’ve been elbow-deep in sheet metal for longer than I’ll admit, and one thing’s certain: Metal assembly work — whether it’s sheet metal fabrication or CNC-machined components — is where […]

Custom Machined Metal Parts — Quick Heads-up Before You Prototype Alright — straight talk. If you live in drawings and tolerances but haven’t spent much time smelling oil and grinding burrs off parts, this one’s for you. I’ve been at Baoxuan Sheet Metal Processing Factory long enough to have wrecked a few prototypes (and learned […]

Selecting the right custom BBQ mesh basket manufacturer is critical for product quality, reliability, and business success. Here are five essential tips to guide your decision: 1. Rigorously Assess Material Expertise & Quality Control Verify the manufacturer’s deep understanding and consistent sourcing of relevant stainless steel grades (like 304 or 430) and coatings.
