Steelwork transforms ideas into structures

The production of equipment components is a constantly evolving sector, where technologies flank and challenge each other to offer increasingly innovative and efficient solutions.

The production of equipment components is a constantly evolving sector, where technologies flank and challenge each other to offer increasingly innovative and efficient solutions. Among the most promising technologies, 3D printing and the constantly evolving metal carpentry are competing for a leading role, each with their own strengths. 3D printing has revolutionised the way we think about manufacturing, offering unprecedented flexibility. Thanks to this technology, it is possible to produce prototypes and finished components with complex, customised geometries that are difficult to realise with traditional methods. Despite the advent of new technologies, metal carpentry remains a reliable and versatile solution for the production of metal components when strength and durability are binding with simple design and dimensioning solutions.
Metal carpentry is a mature and scalable technology, suitable for the production of both small batches and large series. At Miba, more than 45 years of experience allows customers to find support for the production of quality, competitive components with aesthetic and functional characteristics capable of equalling other construction solutions, allowing for subsequent developments and customisation.

Metalwork is the balance between creativity and strength

Metal carpentry is a production process that has evolved over time, a sector in which the processing of materials offers many solutions for the creation of components with aesthetic and functional content. If on the one hand, designers are called upon to create solid and resistant structures, capable of bearing significant loads and withstanding environmental stresses, on the other hand, they are called upon to give their creations an attractive appearance, capable of integrating harmoniously with other components and parts of complex systems that complement them.  Shapes and geometries: Metal structures can take on complex and sinuous shapes, creating unique and original objects. Steel, aluminium and other metals offer a wide range of possibilities in terms of finishes, colours and textures thanks to many surface treatments and processes.  The techniques of welding, bolting and riveting, gluing, etc. make it possible to create solid and at the same time aesthetically pleasing joints.

From raw steel to masterpiece: perfect metalwork.

Metal carpentry is a production technology that combines the strength of the raw material with the precision of execution. From an apparently inert block of raw steel, complex structures, refined design objects and high-precision mechanical components can be created. But how do you go from a simple raw material to a finished product that combines aesthetics and functionality?

The transformation of crude steel The starting point for any metalwork is raw steel, a material with extraordinary mechanical properties but which, in its raw state, has a rough and unrefined appearance. It is precisely through a series of processes and treatments that the steel is transformed into a finished product that meets the customer's specific requirements.


Precision and quality control: the secrets of an outstanding product The quality of a metal carpentry product depends to a large extent on the precision with which the work is carried out and the quality controls carried out throughout the production process.

The importance of the surface finish Surface finishes play a key role in determining the perceived quality of a metal product. In addition to protecting the material from corrosion, finishes can give the product a very refined aesthetic appearance. In conclusion, metal carpentry is a sector where craftsmanship meets technology. Thanks to the use of state-of-the-art machinery and the skill of the operators, it is possible to transform raw steel into unique, customised products that meet the highest demands in terms of quality and functionality as well as aesthetically impressive finishes.
