At KT, we specialize in custom sheet metal components for thermal management and system integration. Unlike standard brackets, this multi-fan mount demonstrates our ability to handle complex geometries, where precise bend sequencing and feature alignment are critical. We focus on producing parts that simplify assembly, improve structural rigidity, and enhance long-term reliability in high-vibration environments.


🛠️ Production Workflow

  1. Complex Laser Cutting: The process starts with laser cutting the steel sheet, creating fan grille patterns, mounting holes, and the irregular outer profile in one step. This ensures clean, consistent edges and precise positioning for every feature.
  2. Multi-Step CNC Bending: The flat blank is then formed into its 3D shape using a multi-axis CNC press brake. The stepped mounting arms and offsets require carefully programmed bend sequences to ensure each angle is accurate and the final assembly fits perfectly into the equipment chassis.
  3. Hardware Insertion: Rivet nuts or threaded inserts are press-fit into the mounting holes, providing strong, reusable fastening points for the fans. This eliminates the need for loose fasteners and simplifies on-site assembly.
  4. Surface Treatment & Curing: The bracket undergoes cleaning, phosphate treatment, and black powder coating. The coating is then cured at high temperature to form a hard, uniform layer that resists scratches, chemicals, and corrosion.
  5. Final Quality Assurance: Dimensional checks, bend angle verification, coating thickness testing, and fastener pull tests are performed to ensure the bracket meets all tolerance and performance specifications.

✅ Core Advantages

  • Simplified Multi-Fan Integration: The bracket consolidates multiple fan mounting points into a single part, streamlining assembly and reducing the number of individual components needed.
  • Custom Geometry for Complex Layouts: The stepped design allows fans to be mounted at different heights and positions, making it ideal for tight chassis layouts where space is limited.
  • Enhanced Durability & Corrosion Resistance: Black powder coating provides excellent protection against wear, chemicals, and environmental corrosion, ensuring the bracket maintains its appearance and performance over the equipment’s lifecycle.
  • Improved Airflow & Fan Protection: The integrated grille patterns protect fan blades from debris while maintaining optimal airflow, helping to extend fan life and improve cooling efficiency.
  • Vibration-Resistant Fastening: The pre-installed threaded inserts create secure, anti-loosening fastening points, making the assembly more resistant to vibration in industrial and high-performance applications.
