Forming Parts that Shape the World
The fabrication industry plays a vital role in society—transforming raw materials into parts and components that are assembled to create goods used every day. Fabricators work across a wide range of sectors, including aerospace, agriculture, automotive, electronics, energy, mining and construction. With such a far-reaching scope and diverse range of skills required, fabrication is surely an industry that relies on adaptability to fluctuating conditions and the ability to problem solve in order to address challenges quickly.
Current Trends and Developments
Over the years, the fabrication industry has been impacted by various trends and developments shifting their needs:
- Sustainability: More energy efficient solutions that lower emissions and reduce the carbon footprint of fabricators are in demand. Fabrication companies are seeking eco-friendly solutions to help them meet their sustainability goals.
- Supply Chain Uncertainties: Increases in materials costs, rising shipping costs and supplier disruptions are among some of the challenges that fabricators are faced with as they strive to manage their supply chain.
- Workforce Shortages: The persistent skilled labor shortage continues to add pressure on fabricators. Advanced equipment and automation solutions have become one of the most effective ways to bridge the gap.
- Digital Transformation: Digital tools offer fabrication companies the ability to examine aspects of their business more closely and provide a greater opportunity to develop data-driven processes that eliminate redundancies and maximize operational efficiency.

Maximizing Efficiency in Metal Fabrication with Dry Ice Blasting
Few industries use more precision and cleanliness than the metal fabrication sector. Clean room applications in an electronics or pharmaceutical production setting might need more manufacturing fidelity, but it is close.
The Role of Submerged Arc Welding in Heavy Fabrication
Can quality meet quantity? It sure can. The submerged arc welding process (SAW) is a specialized metal joining method applied when you need to weld extreme thicknesses and achieve exceptional weld quality. It offers an extremely high metal deposition rate while providing high weld accuracy, fusion quality, depth of penetration, and a low rate of weld discontinuities.
The Rise of Prefabrication in Construction
Prefabrication in the construction industry is likely to remain an ongoing trend. The skilled labor shortage, growing demand, and tighter margins increase the need to create the construction elements in a controlled environment.
Steel Fabrication Company Lowers Costs, Increases Productivity
A Red-D-Arc customer in Atlanta wanted to increase their capabilities in cutting and fabrication of lighter gauge mild steel (up to 2″ thick) using plasma. With the help of the Red-D-Arc Weld Automation – Cutting Services group they decided to expand their existing cutting rail system and added a brand new Koike MasterGraph Extreme Cutting Machine with Hypertherm’s HPR400xd High Definition Plasma power supply.
