When it comes to custom fabrication, precision and versatility are crucial. Dark Horse Metal Works, located in Granbury, TX, uses state-of-the-art tools like the CNC plasma cutting table and the hydraulic press brake to handle projects of all shapes and sizes. From small DIY and residential jobs to more intricate commercial and industrial needs, these machines create endless possibilities for customized metalwork. Here’s a quick look at what each of these tools brings to the table and how they empower creative custom fabrication.
What is CNC Plasma Cutting?
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) Plasma Cutting uses computer precision to cut metal with high-speed plasma torches.
Here’s why it’s a game-changer:
Unmatched Precision: CNC plasma cutting delivers clean, accurate cuts down to intricate details, perfect for complex designs.
Versatile Material Handling: Cuts metals of various types and thicknesses, from steel and aluminum to copper and stainless steel.
Fast Turnaround: High-speed cutting means projects get completed quickly without compromising on detail or accuracy.
With CNC plasma cutting, we can produce everything from simple custom metal signs and wall art to highly specific parts for heavy machinery and custom components. It can be used to create bulk batches or single custom pieces.
What is a Hydraulic Press Brake?
Hydraulic Press Brakes are used for bending and forming metal with extreme precision. This specialty fabrication tool allows us to create complex shapes with clean lines and uniform curves.
Smooth Bends: Achieves consistent bends in a variety of metals, creating everything from sharp angles to smooth curves.
High Tonnage for Thick Metals: Our hydraulic press brake has the power to shape even the thickest metals with ease.
Perfect for Large Jobs: From structural supports and brackets to industrial skids, the press brake allows us to handle large-scale projects.
With this tool, we produce metal parts for more complex and functional components, including commercial and industrial applications like shelving units, skids, or machinery housing to unique parts and pieces for gas and oil industries or logistic companies.
