Sheet Metal Fabrication

Laser Cutting -

Continental Industries offers high speed laser cutting in addition to traditional methods of processing sheet metal. Although Continental has four turret punch presses, it is our Amada LC-3015 laser that gives us a "cutting edge" against our competition.

The 4000kw LC-3015FI NT laser is equipped with 3-axis linear motor drive system, cut process monitoring, twin-adaptive optics, and Amada tuned oscillator making it an ultra-fast, ultra-precise, full range cutting system.

The addition of laser cutting technology has allowed us to increase our throughput, achieve greater part yield and offer faster turnaround times to our customers. The benefits the laser brings to our customers are:

  • Precision Cutting
  • Clean Edges
  • No Special Tooling
  • Complex Geometry
  • Intricate Shapes
  • Greater Material Utilization via Part Nesting.

Punching –

Continental Industries uses cutting-edge technologies and the most advanced equipment available to optimize speed, accuracy and repeatability within our manufacturing facility. Our flexible 50-ton CNC hydraulic punching machines can punch holes in various geometric shapes and patterns as well as different form features such as louvers, electrical knockouts, emboss, extrusions, card guides and various others. We use the latest nesting software to maximize sheet yields and overall production efficiencies to keep scrap to a minimum.

Bending –

Our bending capacities include eight press brakes including two of the latest Amada HDS machines with visual LCD touch screen technology, eight axis back gauge, servo hydraulic rams which allow us cost effectively produce component parts of the highest possible quality for our customers, increasing throughput and creating flexibility. Using Dr. Abe Bend bending analysis software we are able to substantially reduce setup times programming the press brakes offline, giving our company an operational advantage. Our press brakes can handle a full range of material thicknesses in bend lengths up to 120 inches.
