In the realm of towering skyscrapers and intricate machinery, metal fabrication tools play a pivotal role in crafting sheet metal, nuts, bolts, springs, and wires. These tools, used in metal fabrication shops, shape and structure metal components through cutting, burning, welding, machining, forming, and assembling. Lathes, boring machines, milling machines, and drilling machines are common in this process. Whether manual or automated, the metal fabrication process has evolved, especially post the fourth industrial revolution, with a significant shift towards automation and the incorporation of IoT systems. The adoption of IoT is expected to drive the global metal fabrication equipment market's growth, harmonizing manufacturing with information management systems.
