About METANEXConnected manufacturing services designed around the drawing, material, part geometry and required production outcome.
Doctoral-level technical support for materials investigation, sample preparation, scoped testing, heat-treatment evaluation and research-led industrial problem solving.
Laser cutting, large-format processing and edge-preparation requirements are assessed for technical fit and availability during quotation.
Planned precision milling, turning, drilling, tapping and contour machining for controlled dimensions.
Frames, bases, supports, brackets, covers, platforms and fabricated assemblies to specification.
Heat-treatment requirements are reviewed by alloy, component geometry and performance target, then specified or coordinated within the manufacturing route.
Integrated fabrication, welding and assembly planned according to project requirements.
Prototypes, replacement parts, small batches and custom industrial products from drawings.
METANEX reviews industrial laser requirements against the proposed HSG G13025FA platform: 20 kW fibre laser power, a 13,000 × 2,500 mm straight-machining area and bevel-cutting capability. Technical suitability and availability are confirmed only during project review.
Selected components can be cut while simultaneously generating edge geometries for subsequent fabrication or welding, subject to material and thickness review.
Material selection is reviewed against final application, geometry, thickness and manufacturing route.
Laser processing, fabrication and future precision machining for lightweight engineered components.
Laser cutting, heavy plate processing, fabrication, welding and structural components.

METANEX reviews drawings from a manufacturing perspective to identify suitable production methods, materials and process routes before production begins.
Drawing review, feasibility, material review, CAD/CAM preparation and production planning create a better route to the finished component.
METANEX provides doctoral-level expertise for scoped research, welding metallurgy, metallic-product investigation and materials problem solving for industrial customers in Jubail and the Eastern Province. Testing routes, sample requirements and deliverables are defined around each project.
Send the material or component description, sample condition, service history, observed issue, available drawings or reports, and the technical decision you need to make. METANEX will define a suitable investigation scope before work begins.
Project-scoped preparation planning for representative material samples and subsequent metallurgical evaluation.
Relate observed microstructural condition to material behaviour, processing history and the engineering question under review.
Define appropriate mechanical testing and interpret available or project-generated results, subject to the agreed scope and delivery route.
Investigate possible causes of weld cracking, porosity, lack of fusion, heat-affected-zone property changes or distortion; scope appropriate inspection and testing, interpret findings, and propose corrective actions where supported.
Structured investigation of corrosion, material degradation, unexpected behaviour or premature failure in metallic products using available evidence, microstructure and mechanical results where relevant.
Develop or evaluate heat-treatment routes against alloy condition, target properties, geometry and application requirements.
Research-led support for material selection, process review, results interpretation and practical industrial recommendations.
Improve quality. Reduce avoidable costs. Make evidence-based decisions.
Your team may already have a workable solution. METANEX helps evaluate alternatives through focused testing and metallurgical analysis, supporting the best balance of performance, implementation cost and long-term value.

Document the component, weld condition, service history, observed defect and the decision the plant team needs to make.

Scope representative samples, appropriate inspection or testing, and interpretation of microstructure and mechanical results.

Assess broad replacement or rework alongside targeted corrective actions, without assuming one route is always lower cost or technically preferable.
Use the available evidence to support a proportionate response—not to replace the plant team’s operational knowledge.
Illustrative case study — not a completed client project.
Project photography will be added as production begins. Customer information is never shared without permission.
Industrial profiles, brackets, bases and cut-to-drawing components.
Precision-cut plates, components and fabricated product development.
Long structural parts, equipment frames and heavy fabrication.
Quality controls are built around drawing control, inspection and relevant production documentation.
METANEX supports local manufacturing, technical communication and industrial supply-chain resilience near one of the Kingdom’s largest industrial concentrations.
For R&D, describe the material, sample condition, service history, observed issue and decision you need to make. For manufacturing, include drawings, material, thickness, quantity and required date.
