Welding Methods for Custom Sheet Metal Enclosures

03-02

With the continuous upgrading and development of equipment for manufacturing chassis and cabinets, most forming processes are now carried out on automated machinery. Manual methods are typically used only for auxiliary operations and finishing; however, in single-piece production or when dealing with parts of complex geometries, manual handling and machining remain indispensable. Next, we will discuss the connection methods used in electronic cabinets: the primary approaches include soldering, threaded connections, and riveting.

1. Welding

The process methods for long-term jointing of welded components can be categorized into manual shielded metal arc welding, gas-shielded arc welding, laser welding, segmented welding, and resistance spot welding. Our company primarily employs gas-shielded arc welding. During gas-shielded arc welding, the arc zone and the weld pool are protected by a shielding gas, which prevents atmospheric oxidation and the inclusion of impurities on the weld surface by using argon as the shielding gas. Welding of custom sheet-metal enclosures can be performed in any spatial position, and the welding formation process can be visually monitored and adjusted, resulting in high production efficiency.

2. Spot Welding

In resistance welding, the welding method in which the workpieces are pressed together to form a weld joint while in either the molten or non-molten state is classified into butt welding, spot welding, and seam welding.

3. Threaded Connections

Threaded connections offer the advantages of convenient on-site installation, easy disassembly, and simple operation. They are typically used for detachable steel structural connections and can be classified into threaded connections and bolted connections.

4. Riveting

Riveting is a method of joining metal structural parts or assemblies using rivets. There are many types of rivets. The most commonly used types include closed-dome blind rivets, countersunk blind rivets, open-dome blind rivets, and open-countersunk blind rivets.

Several Joining Methods in Customized Small- and Medium-Scale Sheet Metal Fabrication

With the continuous upgrading and advancement of production equipment, the vast majority of forming processes are now carried out on automated machinery. Manual methods are typically employed for complementary operations such as finishing and precision machining. However, in single-piece production or when dealing with parts of complex geometries, manual operations and machining remain indispensable. When manual forming of sheet-metal components is performed using simple tire-forming tools, contour-following fixtures, and zero-point clamping systems, the following techniques should be utilized: bending, edge standing, edge sealing, edge drawing, arch bending, hemming, and weld correction, among others.
