TAB work with all kinds of steel including Aluminium, Mild Steel, Zintec Steel, Austenitic Stainless Steel (eg. 304 and 316), Martensitic Stainless Steel (eg. 410 and 420), Ferritic Stainless Steel (eg.430 and 444), Brass (CZ108 HH or CZ106), Copper, Titanium, and a number of alloys each chosen for the environment in which they are being used.
We can produce prototype, repeat batch (large or small) or even single one off’s. With our continual monitoring of accuracy and finish we ensure the customer’s specifications are always met. We can manufacture directly from customer-supplied drawings, or even provide a full design and manufacture service. This may be from a basic idea scribbled on a notepad to full CAD illustrations, depending on the client’s needs and budget.
Our 39 Station Nisshinbo CNC Punch Press has large 90mm stations and can accommodate steel plate sizes up to 3m x 1.5m. The CNC control ensures consistent accuracy on all punched works prior to forming.
For simple shapes, the NC Controlled Guillotine can shear 3m long x 6mm sheets.
This is complemented by the 3.6m 120 Ton Press Brake or our lower energy consumption 2.5m 60 Ton Press Brake for medium size components or our 1.5m 30 Ton 4 axis CNC controlled Press Brake where we can be more energy efficient for compliance with our commitment to reduced energy usage policy.
Hydraulic Iron workers, bending and notching equipment together with Manual Fly presses, swaging, roll seaming, lock forming and jointing machinery help us to create a more sustainable working environment.
Mig, and Tig Welding for most materials from thick Stainless Steel down to high-speed aluminium with Plasma, acetylene, and soldering / brazing equipment complete the line up.
We can offer water jetting and lazer profile services separately or then developed into finished components including galvanising, powder paint or other finishes.
