The transformative power of modern metal fabrication technologies

MetalForming - The transformative power of modern metal fabrication technologies
January 23, 2025 at 6:00 a.m.

By Jesse Sanchez.

Discover how today’s machinery is revolutionizing the industry with cutting-edge automation and expert support to meet today’s fabrication challenges.

In this episode of MetalTalk™, Heidi J. Ellsworth sat down with David Prokop, executive vice president of precision sales and Martin König, executive vice president of operations, at MetalForming LLC to explore how cutting-edge technology is reshaping the metal fabrication industry. Hosted live from their headquarters in Peachtree City, Georgia, this episode digs into the tools and solutions that are making metalwork faster, safer and more precise.

As businesses face labor shortages, automation has become a key focus in fabrication. David explains, “Customers are making the decisions that, for them to be able to continue to grow and to advance what their business levels and desires are, they have to bring in higher levels of automation.” With these demands in mind, MetalForming has introduced advanced machines like the Jorns bidirectional long folder, capable of creating everything from tapered panels to complex architectural designs.

David highlights the importance of safety in modern machinery, noting that many operators today are trained in a matter of hours, not years. He explains, “Sometimes this operator has been trained for two hours and he's put in front of a machine. They have to be able to safely operate that product and kick product out at a very, very high rate and at a high level of precision and efficiency.” Machines like the PowerBend Multi achieve this with advanced controls that guide users step-by-step, making complex fabrication tasks more accessible than ever before.

In addition to efficiency and safety, the conversation covers how MetalForming supports growth for businesses of all sizes. From their expertise in service and maintenance to modular solutions that evolve with your needs, their focus is on building long-term partnerships. Martin adds, “Come to us, feed off our experience. Talk to people like Chad. Talk to our very experienced field technicians.”
