From weldment to finished assembly

Bring the complete aluminum assembly into the review.

For heavier aluminum frames, equipment bases and recurring weldments, the weld is one part of the manufacturing scope. FWM reviews cutting, forming, welding, supporting machining and mechanical assembly together against your drawings.

Send the alloy and temper, material thicknesses, overall dimensions, weld symbols and critical mounting interfaces. Include the first-build quantity and expected repeat releases so the team can assess the production plan as well as the part.

Review aluminum welding capabilities

Define inspection and documentation before production.

FWM's quality process connects material records, drawing revisions and inspection checkpoints to the job. Identify the records your purchasing and quality teams need during the RFQ review.

  • Material certificates and lot or heat traceability.
  • Critical dimensions, fit-up checks and weld acceptance criteria.
  • First-article records, weld maps and certificates of conformance where required.
  • Customer-specific testing, packaging and shipment documentation.

Required qualifications, certifications, testing and outside processes are confirmed for the specific job.
