Welding and fabrication go almost hand in hand when it comes to elevator interiors, however it’s easy to take their differences for granted. In fact, some people go even as far as to say that the two are synonymous or interchangeable. However, this is a bit far from the truth. And since a more educated clientele is to the best interest of everyone, we have endeavoured to shed light on how elevator interiors are crafted.
To make things even more understandable, let us envision what actually happens when it comes to welding and fabricating elevator interiors. You can readily imagine, for instance in a company like ours, an automated process of creating metals – a process that consists of different phases and each phase utilizes further specialized sub-processes. In a nutshell, the process as a whole is what is called fabrication and welding is simply one specialized sub-process.
Even more specifically, if you find yourself – or a machine for that matter – putting together two or more metal parts, sheets of glass, or thermoplastics, that almost always involves welding. This is joined by another tell-tale indicator of the welding process which is melting and sparking. On the other hand, the fabrication process as a whole is not limited to that. Fabrication begins with the design of an intended product and ends with the three-dimensional ‘finished’ product. In the past, it was common to divide the process among different business owners. One establishment would weld, another would fabricate. However, more complex machinery pervades the industry today. The welding and fabrication of elevator interiors can now be done by one business entity at the same time, which is precisely what we do.
Our company continues to invest in more space-saving, energy-saving, and more durable machinery to one day perfect the fusion of welding and fabrication in Toronto. It is in this seamless merging of a process and an important sub-process that we are able to get some of the country’s best metal-work out to service small and large businesses alike.
