When an Israeli client needed a custom stainless steel sink enclosure panel,
the project ran from a confirmed technical drawing through die tooling,
stamping, bending, and drilling — all in-house at our Xiamen factory.
Here is how we took it from flat sheet to finished part.
Project background
The client required a wall-mounted sink enclosure for commercial installation.
Key requirements included a 304-grade brushed stainless steel surface, a large
rectangular screen opening, an integrated card reader slot, and a camera aperture
— all to be produced from a single panel with no visible welds on the face.
Manufacturing process — step by step
The panel goes through five controlled stages. Use the interactive walkthrough
below to follow each step.
Bending and thickness verification
After stamping, the flat panel is transferred to a CNC press-brake. The curved
front face profile is formed in a single bending pass. A dial caliper is used
at the bending station to confirm wall thickness and bend angle against the
approved drawing — typically ±0.1mm tolerance on critical dimensions.
Assembly fit check
Before shipping the first sample, the formed panel is trial-fitted to the
inner housing. This confirms the curved face seats flush, the mounting clips
engage correctly, and the card slot aligns with the internal mechanism — all
checked against the client’s drawing before mass production approval.
Lead time and custom capability
From drawing confirmation to first physical sample: approximately 15 working
days, including die fabrication. We work directly from client-supplied DWG
or STEP files and can accommodate low minimum order quantities for custom
tooling projects. Contact us to discuss your enclosure panel requirements.

What we can stamp for you
Beyond sink enclosure panels, our factory handles a wide range of
stainless steel and mild steel enclosure components — control panels,
kiosk fascias, access control housings, and custom bracket assemblies.
