Frequently Asked Questions
Do I Need To Provide My Own Designs?
Having access to preferred designs will speed up the fabrication process so this is definitely a preferred option. If you can supply designs the fabrication will be completed faster and cost less.
Additionally, you will save more money by having your components complete earlier to cut down on project time. If you don't have designs, our team of engineers can work with you to create precise designs so that your completed fabrication will be precisely what you need.
What Processes Are Used In The Steel Fabrication Process?
There are a number of processes and HardRok has the most state-of-the-art machinery to ensure perfection in every job that we complete. We use the latest technologies in laser cutting that use computer guidance for precise cutting.
Other processes that can be included include machining that will smooth out surfaces or create perfectly rounded edges, hole punching and much more - all using specialised equipment operated by our highly trained and experienced team.
What Is Your Welding Process?
Welding is a vital part of the fabrication process as it is required to create seamless and durable joins between different steel components. This process involves extreme heat before the items are machine pressed together to form a single object.
Our highly skilled technicians will use engineered blueprints for the welding process and use their skills and experience to ensure a seamless join with no warping, stains or other imperfections.
What Projects Are We Available For?
HardRok is available for a range of specialised fabrication, welding, rubber lining and conveyor and labour-hire services for the Mount Isa commercial and industrial sectors.
