FormaSharp provides mechanical design services tailored for sheet metal fabrication and forming. Our CAD models are built for manufacturability—ready for processes like laser cutting, bending, stamping, and forming. Whether you're designing brackets, enclosures, or structural components, we ensure your parts are optimized for fabrication with minimal rework. Our designs help reduce material waste, tooling complexity, and production time.

Design for Fabrication

Designing for sheet metal is a balance of geometry, material behavior, and tooling constraints. At FormaSharp, we make parts that are both functional and practical to fabricate. We account for bend allowances, relief cuts, and edge distances to ensure your design performs well in production.

Key features we design for:

  • Bend radii and allowances

  • Hole spacing and punching clearance

  • Tabs, flanges, and mounting features

  • Flat-pattern views for fabrication

This process ensures your design is not only manufacturable but also cost-effective and structurally sound.
