Forming Consoles – Selat Melaka
Sheet Metal Forming & Custom Metal Console Fabrication
Logam provides sheet metal forming in Malaysia for custom metal components and fabricated assemblies. Our capabilities include metal cutting, bending, rolling and related fabrication processes to support project-specific dimensions, materials and structural requirements.
Our Forming Consoles – Selat Melaka project is part of Logam’s design-and-build portfolio, featuring bridge consoles associated with navigation system monitor arrangements.

Bridge consoles accommodate navigation and monitoring equipment within a designated working area. Their construction must account for the equipment layout, operating space, access requirements and surrounding structure.
For custom console fabrication, important design considerations include:
- Console Dimensions: Overall size and shape based on the available installation space.
- Equipment Openings: Cut-outs and mounting positions corresponding to the selected monitors and control equipment.
- Access & Maintenance: Panel arrangements that allow equipment connections, inspection and servicing.
- Material Selection: Suitable metal grades and thicknesses based on structural and environmental requirements.
- Finishing: Surface treatments appropriate for the intended application.
The final design should follow approved project drawings, equipment specifications and relevant installation requirements.
Logam’s Sheet Metal Forming Capabilities
Logam’s metal fabrication capabilities support different forming requirements for custom components and assemblies.
| Fabrication Process | Application |
| Press Brake Bending | Forming flat metal sheets into angled panels, folded edges and profiles |
| Metal Rolling | Producing curved or cylindrical metal sections |
| Stamping | Creating formed features using suitable tooling |
| Shearing & Cutting | Preparing metal sheets to the required dimensions before forming |
| Welding & Assembly | Joining formed components into larger structures |
| Surface Finishing | Preparing the fabricated components for the required appearance and application |
Logam’s published equipment list includes a 10-foot hydraulic press brake, three-roller rolling equipment and various welding systems.
The suitable forming method depends on the material, thickness, required geometry and production quantity.
Sheet Metal Forming Requirements for Custom Projects
To assess a custom sheet metal forming enquiry, several technical details should be established before fabrication.
| Requirement | Information to Provide |
| Material | Stainless steel, mild steel, aluminium or other specified metal |
| Thickness | Required sheet thickness and material grade |
| Component Dimensions | Overall dimensions, bend locations and required shapes |
| Tolerances | Acceptable dimensional and angular variations |
| Fabrication Scope | Forming only or additional cutting, welding and assembly |
| Surface Finish | Required appearance and protective treatment |
| Quantity | Number of components or assemblies required |
Logam works with multiple metal grades and fabrication methods. However, the achievable dimensions, tolerances and forming limitations must be confirmed for each project.
Custom Sheet Metal Forming for Industrial & Marine Applications
Sheet metal forming can be used to produce different components depending on their intended function. These may include equipment panels, structural covers, brackets, housings and custom metal profiles.
For marine-related fabrication, additional considerations may include corrosion exposure, mounting arrangements, vibration and the applicable project specifications.
Logam also undertakes Marine Engineering projects involving custom fabrication and shipboard equipment.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can Logam provide sheet metal forming based on technical drawings?
Logam undertakes custom fabrication work and lists bending, rolling and stamping among its capabilities. Customers can submit drawings showing the required dimensions, materials, sheet thickness and bend details. The appropriate process and fabrication feasibility should be confirmed before production.
What information is required for accurate sheet metal bending?
Provide the material grade, thickness, bend angles, internal bend radii, overall dimensions and tolerances. These details help assess tooling suitability and forming requirements. If the component must fit into an existing assembly, include the mating dimensions and installation constraints.
Can sheet metal forming be combined with welding and other fabrication processes?
Yes. Logam lists cutting, forming, welding and surface finishing among its fabrication capabilities. Depending on project requirements, formed components may require additional cutting, machining or joining before final assembly. The required scope should be specified during quotation.
Can Logam fabricate custom metal consoles for marine applications?
Logam’s portfolio includes the Forming Consoles – Selat Melaka bridge console project. For similar enquiries, provide the proposed equipment layout, dimensions, materials and installation requirements. Any applicable marine approval or classification requirements should also be identified before fabrication.
