The Figur G15 uses patent-pending Digital Sheet Forming (DSF) technology in which a software-driven ceramic tool head on a gantry shapes standard sheet metal into parts with up to 2,000 lbs of force.'

Die casting is expected to increase the adoption of metal fabrication in various industrial projects because it requires less machining and other finishing operations than sand casting. Die casting has better dimensional tolerances and greater production efficiency. Die casting reshapes the molten metal in a die instead of mold. It is often used to make components for the automotive industry or decorative hardware and many other small components

The rising use of welding robots in the automotive, electrical & electronics industries along with the introduction of new materials like carbon fibers in the industrial processes, is expected to gain impetus in the metal fabrication robots in future.

The Asia-Pacific region accounts for the largest revenue share of about 40 % in the global metal fabrication service market due to rapid growth in the automotive sector. This is also due to the rapid industrialization and urbanization of some developing countries like India, Bangladesh, and Vietnam the market is expected to grow. Government schemes like Make in India mission are promoting industrial activities. Some industries like construction, oil and gas industry, are driving the growth of metal fabrication.
