Mechanical / Fabrication Work

Fabrication uses semi-finished or raw materials to make something from start to finish, as opposed to simply assembling it. This work is typically completed by a fabrication shop (or fab shop) that will bid on the contract for the job based on engineering drawings and specifications.

Cutting, punching, forming, shearing, stamping, welding are common fabrication techniques used to shape, cut, or mold raw metal material into a final product. Fabrication is distinct from other manufacturing processes
