Fabrication Capability
Our Manufacturing Strengths
MEICHEN fabricates steel truss structures for industrial projects that require accurate member preparation, controlled welding, and reliable dimensional consistency. We support custom fabrication of trussed assemblies ranging from building roof trusses to heavy-duty industrial support trusses, based on approved drawings and project requirements.
Our fabrication process focuses on material preparation, joint fit-up, welding execution, assembly control, dimensional inspection, and shipment preparation. This supports more efficient installation and helps reduce fabrication-related risk for complex steel truss projects.
Drawing-based truss fabrication
Steel truss structures are fabricated according to approved drawings, connection details, and project technical specifications.
Complex joint and node fabrication
Suitable for trussed assemblies with multiple intersecting members, gusset connections, and connection-intensive details.
Controlled welding for truss assemblies
Welding operations are managed to support joint quality, assembly integrity, and project compliance requirements.
Assembly and dimensional verification
Fabrication control includes checking truss geometry, member alignment, and critical dimensions before delivery.
Custom fabrication for non-standard truss systems
Support for project-specific truss designs involving special layouts, heavy loads, or integrated structural functions.
Packing and shipment coordination
Finished truss components are marked, organized, and prepared for shipment according to project and installation requirements.
Quality Control
Built to International Standards
Quality control is especially important for steel truss structures because their structural performance depends on member accuracy, connection integrity, and overall assembly geometry. MEICHEN places focus on inspection and fabrication control throughout the production process to support dimensional consistency, welding quality, and project delivery requirements.
Raw material verification
Incoming steel materials are checked against project specifications before fabrication begins.
Member preparation and fit-up inspection
Cut members, connection plates, and assembled joints are checked during fabrication to support proper fit-up and geometry.
Welding inspection
Welding work is controlled and inspected according to applicable fabrication and project requirements.
Dimensional inspection of truss geometry
Key dimensions, member alignment, and connection locations are verified before shipment.
Surface treatment inspection
Surface preparation and coating checks are carried out when required by project specifications.
Identification and shipment control
Truss components are marked and organized to support traceability, packing accuracy, and site coordination.
