Course details

Sheet Metal Manufacturing & Costing is a comprehensive discipline that integrates engineering design, production processes, and financial analysis to determine the true cost and profitability of fabricated metal components. Sheet metal manufacturing involves a sequence of operations such as material selection, laser cutting or punching, bending, forming, welding, assembly, and surface finishing. Each stage contributes directly to the overall product cost through material consumption, machine time, tooling requirements, labor input, and overhead allocation. Effective costing requires accurate interpretation of engineering drawings, calculation of blank size and material yield, estimation of cycle times, setup time consideration, and assessment of scrap and rework risks. In addition, factors such as batch size, automation level, production efficiency, and supply chain fluctuations significantly influence cost outcomes. A structured costing approach not only supports competitive quotation preparation but also enables cost optimization through process improvement, waste reduction, and value engineering. By aligning manufacturing methods with financial analysis, sheet metal manufacturing and costing ensure sustainable pricing strategies, improved margins, and informed business decision-making in fabrication industries.
