Frequently Asked Questions
What welding standard do you follow?
Our welding procedures comply with AWS D1.6 (Stainless Steel) and ISO 15614. We can provide WPS and welder qualification records upon request.
Can you weld stainless steel to carbon steel?
Yes. Using appropriate filler metals, we can join stainless steel to carbon steel assemblies. Contact us with your specific material combination.
How do you control distortion on large frames?
We use sequenced welding techniques, fixturing to restrain movement, and stress-relief measures where needed. For high-precision frames, post-weld machining is available.
Do you offer assembly of components onto the frame?
Yes. We can integrate brackets, hinges, mounting plates, casters, and hardware before shipping — reducing your final assembly time.
What finish do you recommend for food-grade applications?
For food processing and pharmaceutical use, electropolishing or #4 brushed finish provides a smooth, non-porous surface that meets hygienic standards.
Custom Manufacturing Details
All products are manufactured to your drawings or samples. DFM optimization available at no extra charge. Sample available before mass production. OEM/ODM accepted. We can integrate secondary operations — drilling, tapping, countersinking, and hardware insertion — to deliver frames that are ready for your production line.
