Service Story Ep.4 | Jewish Candlestick Project with Sheet Metal Process

Project Overview

In this episode of Service Story, Cynthia from XY-GLOBAL shares the story behind a custom manufacturing project for a client in the decorative handicrafts industry. The client, based in the Middle East, required aluminum candlesticks used in religious settings for church decoration.

Project Details

• End Use: Decorative candlesticks used in churches

• Material: Aluminum

• Manufacturing Process: Sheet metal forming

• Surface Requirement: Sandblasting finish with no visible scratches

• Delivery Timeline: Within 30 days

• Special Design Considerations: Complex shape requiring multiple forming directions and formal molds for shaping

Challenge and Solution

Due to the complexity of the product’s structure, a simple mold was insufficient. Our engineering team redesigned the drawings, created a formal mold, and performed multiple forming trials to ensure structural integrity and surface quality. Quality was closely monitored throughout the process.

Outcome

The final product met all of the client’s functional and aesthetic expectations, with a smooth surface and accurate form. Satisfied with the result, the client immediately commissioned a second design, indicating strong interest in long-term cooperation.

Key Takeaway

This project enhanced our ability to handle complex sheet metal projects with strict visual and functional requirements. It also strengthened our communication and collaboration practices with international clients in the handicraft sector.
