The production process of stainless steel sculpture involves many links, and the following is a detailed step description:
- Design: First of all, design the sculpture according to the needs and expectations of customers.
The design process should consider the environmental factors, determine the content, form, color, and then design a complete plan.
Designers can use computer-aided design (CAD) software or hand-drawn sketches to accomplish this step. - Make a model: Based on the design, it is necessary to make a small model or model diagram for reference.
Models can be made from dirt, wood or other materials, or printed using a 3D printer.
This helps to more intuitively understand the shape and proportion of the sculpture.
- Make internal support structure: For large sculptures, it is necessary to design and make internal support structure to ensure the stability and safety of the sculpture.
- Cutting, grinding and welding: According to the model or model diagram, the stainless steel plate is cut into the desired shape, and then polished and welded.
Cutting can be laser cutting or manual cutting, and welding can use argon arc welding, manual welding and other methods. - Forging and splicing: This is the key process in the production of stainless steel sculpture. Through forging and splicing, the stainless steel sheet can be shaped into the desired shape and structure.
- Surface treatment: The stainless steel surface is treated by pickling, polishing and other ways to make its surface smooth and bright, which can improve the texture and visual effect of the sculpture.
- Coloring and painting: According to the design scheme, the various parts of the sculpture are colored and painted.
Parts of the sculpture may remain silver of stainless steel, while other parts are colored as needed. - Packaging, transportation and installation: After the sculpture is completed, it is packed to prevent damage during transportation.
After reaching the predetermined position, it is installed and fixed to ensure the stability and display effect of the sculpture.
It should be noted that the production of stainless steel sculpture requires professional technology and equipment. So it is recommended to choose a sculpture production company with rich experience and professional knowledge.
At the same time, the production process also needs to strictly abide by the safety operation procedures to ensure the safety of personnel and the quality of the work.
