Differences Between Sheet Metal Bending and Industrial Fabrication
Although both processes are part of steelworking, sheet metal bending and industrial fabrication have key differences in techniques, materials, and applications.
Over 25 years delivering high-precision metal manufacturing solutions across Mexico and the United States.
Since 1998, FORMEC has been developing industrial solutions driven by a single standard: accuracy. We specialize in CNC machining, cutting, bending, and industrial fabrication—approaching every project as unique. Because it is.
We don’t make decorative steel. We manufacture parts that perform, endure, and fit—delivered on time.
En FORMEC nos especializamos en la transformación de acero a través de procesos avanzados como maquinado CNC, formado de lámina y pailería industrial. Desde 1998, hemos brindado soluciones de valor a empresas de diferentes sectores, adaptando cada proyecto a las necesidades específicas de nuestros clientes. La calidad, el cumplimiento en tiempos de entrega y la optimización de costos son los pilares que nos definen.
We believe technical excellence begins with understanding the client. We work closely with engineers, designers, and production teams to deliver functional and sustainable solutions. Whether it’s a prototype or a full production run, we adapt to your needs with optimized processes and specialized technology.
More than two decades of precision, evolution, and industrial vision. This is how FORMEC began: as a workshop. This is how it continues: as a benchmark.
Our facilities are designed so every process is executed with precision—CNC machining, turning, and fabrication. Step inside and see it for yourself.
We offer a full range of industrial processes for steel transformation, all under strict quality and precision standards:
Since 1998, FORMEC has delivered high-value solutions to companies in Mexico and the United States, focusing on quality, on-time delivery, and cost reduction for our clients.
