Metal Fabrication
Metal fabrication is the process of transforming raw metal materials into finished parts or products through cutting, bending, welding, and assembling. In Singapore’s industrial and construction sectors, metal fabrication plays a vital role — from building structures and interior frameworks to precision components used in engineering and manufacturing.
At Feng Sheng Metal Works, metal fabrication is more than just a process — it’s a craft refined over decades. What began as a small family workshop has grown into a modern operation, blending traditional skills with advanced laser technology to meet the rising demand for precision, speed, and customisation.
Sheet Metal Fabrication
Sheet metal fabrication refers specifically to the shaping and forming of thin, flat metal sheets into functional parts or structures. Using computer-controlled machinery, fabricators can achieve high accuracy with minimal waste — a crucial factor for cost efficiency in Singapore’s competitive industrial landscape.
At Feng Sheng, every project starts with precision. We use CO₂ laser cutting systems capable of producing intricate designs directly from CAD software. This method eliminates physical contact between the cutting tool and material, reducing wear, ensuring clean edges, and preventing heat distortion — ideal for delicate or thin materials.
Sheet Metal Prototyping
Before full-scale production, sheet metal prototyping allows clients to test and refine their designs. Whether it’s an architectural fitting or an industrial component, a prototype provides the opportunity to validate dimensions, assembly, and finish before committing to final production.
This process is essential for businesses that require precision engineering but want to manage risk and cost effectively — and Feng Sheng’s digital fabrication systems make rapid prototyping both accurate and affordable.
Custom Sheet Metal
Not all projects can rely on standard designs. Custom sheet metal fabrication is where creativity meets engineering — creating unique solutions for specific requirements.
Feng Sheng specialises in bespoke metalwork, offering design consultation and fabrication based on each client’s specifications. Every project is programmed digitally via CAD software, ensuring that even the most intricate geometries are cut and formed with millimetre precision.
Because each project is unique, there’s no fixed pricing — the cost depends on material, design complexity, and machine runtime. For example, our cost structure typically includes cutting fees ($3 per piece) and bending fees ($2–$3 per bend, depending on length).
Steel Metal Fabrication
Steel remains one of the most widely used metals in construction and manufacturing due to its strength and versatility. Steel fabrication involves transforming raw steel into structures or components through cutting, welding, drilling, and finishing.
Feng Sheng works with various grades of steel, including mild steel and structural steel, providing durable, high-quality results for projects ranging from architectural fittings to industrial frameworks.
Steel Fabrication
While often used interchangeably with “steel metal fabrication,” this term encompasses the broader process — from sourcing quality steel materials from suppliers to creating finished components.
In Singapore, the cost of steel fabrication can fluctuate depending on material supply and market prices. At Feng Sheng, our focus is on efficiency and precision — using advanced laser systems to reduce waste and eliminate unnecessary post-processing steps.
Stainless Steel Fabrication
Stainless steel fabrication requires additional expertise due to the metal’s properties — it’s resistant to corrosion, but harder to cut and shape.
With our CO₂ laser cutting machines, we achieve clean, burr-free edges that retain the natural luster of stainless steel, reducing the need for further polishing. This makes it ideal for high-end architectural finishes, commercial kitchens, or decorative fixtures where aesthetics and durability are equally important.
Custom Metal Fabrication
Every client has different requirements — whether it’s a custom staircase railing, signage, furniture frame, or industrial part. That’s why custom metal fabrication is at the heart of what we do.
Since 2007, Feng Sheng has invested heavily in technology — including our first $500,000 laser machine and a newer upgraded system in 2016 — to provide precision craftsmanship that meets each client’s unique vision.
No two projects are the same. Our fabrication process is fully tailored, with each design programmed, cut, and assembled according to client specifications. Costs are calculated based on machine runtime, material type, and labor intensity, rather than tonnage — because in custom work, the value lies in precision, not volume.
Aluminum Fabrication
Lightweight yet durable, aluminum is commonly used in architectural frameworks, automotive components, and signage. It’s more delicate to cut and bend than steel, but laser technology enables high accuracy without warping the material.
Our team ensures clean, precise finishes ideal for projects where both function and design aesthetics matter — from interior fit-outs to custom panels.
Metal Workbench
A metal workbench is often the unsung hero of any fabrication shop. It’s where ideas take form, parts are assembled, and craftsmanship comes to life.
At Feng Sheng, we take pride in combining hands-on skill with cutting-edge machinery. While our laser systems automate precision work, our craftsmen still play an essential role — welding, assembling, and finishing each piece with care and attention that only experience can provide.
Metal Manufacturing
Metal manufacturing encompasses the entire journey — from raw material to finished product. While large-scale manufacturers mass-produce standard items, Feng Sheng’s strength lies in custom, small-batch manufacturing tailored to each client’s needs.
We don’t fabricate by ton — we fabricate by purpose. Each project is unique, defined by its design, finish, and craftsmanship. The combination of modern laser systems and skilled manual fabrication allows us to deliver precision-built products faster, safer, and with a personal touch that reflects decades of experience.
Final Thoughts
Metal fabrication may be a technical process, but behind every finished piece is a story of craftsmanship, innovation, and family heritage.
At Feng Sheng Metal Works, we’ve seen how technology has transformed the industry — from hand tools to half-a-million-dollar laser machines. Yet, the heart of our work remains the same: to craft metal solutions that stand the test of time, made right here in Singapore.
