Engineering In order to manufacture a sheet metal component, customer supplied information and drawings must be translated into machine code. Many variables must be taken into account to successfully convert a customer drawing into a finished part. Many times, a part can not be economically manufactured as drawn or with customer provided information only. ABC Sheet Metal's talented sheet metal engineers and programmers are trained in the use of the latest 2D and 3D CAD technology available which aids in the process. In most cases a design can be optimized for manufacturing through the use of 3D modeling techniques, reducing manufacturing labor and material.
