Explore steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper, marble, acrylic and wood. Find compatible Al Orfali cutting and forming processes for your material.
Steel appears across the documented cutting and forming processes. The right route depends on the part: a straight sheet, a patterned panel, a folded cover or a rolled cylinder. State the material specification and intended use rather than relying on the word “steel” alone.
A stainless steel part often has a visible surface as well as a functional shape. Include its grade, finish requirements and which face is visible, alongside dimensions and thickness. The process is selected after reviewing the complete drawing.
Copper is included in several documented fabrication processes. A clear drawing should describe the part’s function as well as its shape. Material specification, thickness, opening sizes and surface requirements guide the review.
Aluminium is listed for several cutting and forming processes. Material specification, thickness and geometry influence the selection. For a bent panel or cover, show the final dimensions and direction of each bend.
Marble designs need clear outlines and attention to narrow or delicate areas. Waterjet is the documented cutting process for marble. Identify the slab thickness, visible face and how the pattern should be oriented.
Acrylic can be shaped into outlines, openings and engraved details using an appropriate process. The drawing should separate through-cuts from surface engraving. State the required appearance and which edges will remain visible.
Wood designs use CNC routing for cutting and engraving. Repeated components need clear dimensions and consistent orientation in the drawing. Grain direction can affect the appearance, so identify it whenever it matters to the design.
Your drawing, dimensions, material and quantity. Bring the details together in one clear brief.
