Metal Fabrication

Metal bending can be a complex process, but not to our state of the art CNC press brake machines. From small and simple to giant four-metre folds on plate material, ICEE offers its clients high quality bending that delivers exceptional precision, reliability, and productivity, with dramatically reduced set-up and lead times.

Our metal bending service is available as a single process, in combination with other fabrication services, or as part of a total end-to-end fabrication package, meaning that we can virtually manufacture any metal enclosure or product you want, as well as provide you with all subsequent services, including installation, commissioning, maintenance and more.

Our fully equipped and modern welding shop, enables us to construct small to medium size fabrications in carbon steel, stainless steel, and aluminium. While the majority of our work has previously revolved around sheet metal and plate material, we are certainly not restricted by them, and we will also undertake demanding sub-contracted projects that require special resources.

Welding is available as a stand-alone service, in combination with other fabrication services, or as part of a total end-to-end manufacturing package, which offers significant cost saving benefits to our clients. The service is also available as part of our bespoke enclosures solution.

We pride ourselves with exceptional quality assurance and compliance. We strictly adhere to British Standard specifications and other recognised codes including Class 1 Coded Welding to BS EN 287-1 2011. What’s more, ICEE has been awarded Safe Contractor status and achieved stringent ISO 9001:2008 quality management accreditation

MIG uses heat generated by a DC electric arc to fuse metal in the joint area. The benefits of the method include:

• Extremely versatile process that can weld a wide variety of metals and alloys
• Offers quicker turn-around times, due to the higher productivity of the method and its simplicity
• The method makes it easy to produce neat weld runs

TIG welding is an arc welding process that uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. The benefits of the method include:

• Production of high-quality and low-distortion welds
• Ability to weld almost all metals and metal alloys in use today, including dissimilar ones
• Gives precise control of welding heat, therefore, delivering better quality of weld

Spot welding is the welding of overlapping pieces of metals at small points by application of pressure and electric current. The benefits of this method include:

• Fast and easy process that offers quick turnaround times on a low cost
• Has the ability to weld very thin sheets of metal
• Distortion or warping of parts is eliminated

We know how important it is when investing in valuable assets to ensure that they are protected from damage and their life-span maximised. This is why, here at ICEE, we use the best plating, coating and finishing resources to ensure extreme durability of our products and bring peace of mind to our clients about the safety and longevity of what we supply.

Providing high quality service is of utmost priority to our team, which is why we wanted to establish a fine balance between having some of our plating and coating processes completed in-house and, as appropriate, some performed by high-quality external contractors. In-house or external, we apply the strictest controls and testing to ensure that the customer’s specification is met fully and that the end product is safe, protected, and of high-quality.

We have the ability to process small parts and large assemblies, one-off or in high volume, including on-site work at the customer’s location. Our wide range of metal finishing includes:

• Hot dip galvanising
• Cold galvanic coating
• Electro-plating
• Painting
• Powder coating
• Chroming
• Zinc plating

Metal plating is a necessary process that provides many benefits, including things such as improved corrosion resistance, increased solderability, enhanced strength, reduced friction, altered conductivity, increased magnetism and more.
