ARTISTIC METALWORKING INDUSTRY
Metalworking has been around since 7000 BC as a resource to make tools, weapons, jewelry, and art. Currently this industry is comprised of creative and talented artists who use various resources to express their craft. Metalworking is one of the most unique and innovative forms of artwork. The artists who work in this field require precise and accurate cutting technology to fulfill their artistic vision.
CREATIVE METALWORKING PROCESS
Metalworking art starts with a vision from the artist. The artist’s sketch is used to draw and design a piece of artwork in an advanced CAD program. This program transfers the design to a nesting plan. From there the machine operator (who is usually the artist) pulls up the nesting plan within Messer’s easy-to-use Global Control. The artist chooses plasma, oxyfuel, or fiber laser as the cutting process, as cutting goes from vision, to sketch, to the plate. The artist chooses from Messer’s precision cutting technology, with either plasma, laser, or oxyfuel cutting process to cut the plate in the form of the design.
Metalworking art comes in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. The metalworking process can take anywhere from a few days up to a year, depending on the artist’s vision. Overall, the art industry sells over $66 billion worth of art each year.
