Manufacturing Approach
Buyers searching for custom protective cover usually need more than a simple metal box. They need a supplier that can read drawings, check the design before production, control bending and welding distortion, and keep the finish consistent from sample to batch order. Fulei Metal supports this workflow from DFM review through cutting, forming, welding, finishing, assembly and export packing.
For each RFQ, our team reviews the material grade, thickness, bend radius, hole position, weld access, surface treatment and packing requirements before confirming the manufacturing route. This helps reduce rework, avoid tolerance surprises and make the quotation easier for engineering and purchasing teams to approve.
Process Control for OEM Projects
The usual route starts with drawing review and material preparation. Flat blanks are cut by fiber laser or stamping depending on quantity and geometry. CNC bending controls the main form, while TIG, MIG, spot welding or laser welding can be selected according to strength and appearance requirements. After deburring and surface preparation, parts can be powder coated, galvanized, anodized, electropolished or assembled with hardware.
When the part is used in equipment, cabinets or exposed industrial environments, we pay special attention to mounting holes, door gaps, cable openings, vent patterns, weld position and coating coverage. These small details determine whether the part fits smoothly during final assembly.
Quality and Inspection
Fulei Metal can provide incoming material checks, first-article inspection, in-process dimensional checks and final inspection photos or reports when required. For enclosure and cabinet projects, buyers may also request coating thickness checks, assembly checks, packing photos and material certificates. If your project has a specific standard, send it with the drawing so the requirement can be built into the quotation.

FAQ
Can you manufacture from our drawing?
Yes. Send PDF, DWG, DXF, STEP, IGES or SolidWorks files. We review manufacturability before quotation.
Can you support prototype and batch production?
Yes. MOQ and sample timing depend on the part, tooling requirement and finish. Use the values above as the reference from this product plan.
Can the finish and logo be customized?
Yes. Powder coating, plating, anodizing, electropolishing, silk screen and custom colors can be discussed according to the material and application.
Can you help reduce cost?
Yes. We can suggest changes to material, bend radius, weld position, tolerance or surface treatment when those changes do not affect function.
How do I start?
Send drawings, quantity, material and target market through the RFQ form. Our team will review the project and confirm the next quotation step.
