Fabrication
Custom Creations That Steel the Show
Custom fabrication projects from G&C Optimization help you keep enclosures, brackets, or complex components performing at their best. We listen to the specification you have for your industrial and engineering endeavors. From enclosures, screen covers, brackets, solar skids, to stands, we provide full custom design and fabrication services.
Ironclad Solutions for Every Project
Fabrication is the process of designing, creating, and assembling metal structures and components to meet specific requirements. It involves cutting, shaping, and finishing metal materials to produce custom parts that fit precise needs. Whether you need a custom enclosure for sensitive equipment or specialized brackets for machinery, G&C Optimization ensures the job is done right. Our fabrication projects involve detailed planning and execution to deliver high-quality, durable metal products.

Quality Check
We adhere to strict quality standards, conducting thorough inspections to ensure each product meets our high-performance criteria.
Powder Coating
Our powder coating process at G&C Optimization involves applying a dry powder to metal surfaces, which is then heated in our 8'x6' and 8'x20' ovens to form a tough, protective layer. This method delivers a highly durable finish that resists chipping, fading, and scratching, making it ideal for components exposed to harsh environments or frequent handling.
In-Houe Sandblasting
Sandblasting, also known as abrasive blasting, is a critical preparation step for metal finishing. During this process, abrasive materials are propelled at high speeds to clean and texture metal surfaces. This removes contaminants such as rust, old paint, and dirt, ensuring a clean surface that improves the adhesion of subsequent coatings. The roughened texture created by sandblasting helps coatings and paints adhere more securely, leading to a more durable and long-lasting finish. It’s essential for ensuring that metal components have a smooth and uniform surface before applying any protective or decorative layers.
Hot Dip Galvanizing
Hot dip galvanizing is a process that involves immersing metal parts in a bath of molten zinc to form a protective coating. This zinc layer provides exceptional corrosion resistance, making it particularly suitable for metal components exposed to harsh environmental conditions, such as moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. The galvanizing process enhances the longevity of metal parts by preventing rust and degradation, which is crucial for maintaining structural integrity and reducing maintenance costs over time. It’s an ideal choice for components used in outdoor or industrial applications where durability is a top priority.
Plasma Cutting
Plasma cutting uses a high-velocity stream of ionized gas (plasma) to cut through metal with precision. Our 6'x12' CNC plasma cutter enables us to handle a wide range of metal thicknesses and complexities, from simple cuts to intricate designs. This technology offers exceptional accuracy and speed, allowing us to produce complex shapes and detailed patterns with minimal material wastage. Plasma cutting is ideal for projects that require precise and clean cuts, making it a versatile choice for custom metalwork, including components with intricate designs or those requiring tight tolerances.
