Metal Forming & Fabricating
Filter by Process Zone:
Servo Presses for Near-Net-Shape Fine Blanking, HSLA Blanking, High Productivity
Versatile DSF Series Servo Presses from AIDA-America can improve virtually any stamping operation through increased productivity, improved part quality, increased die life and reduced maintenance.
Custom Grit Blasting Systems for Effective Finishing
The Dual Expanded Two-Station RXS-400 System from Guyson with a twin spindle feature that allows for two-part flow is designed for grit blasting medical implant devices in a small footprint with simultaneous dual operation.
Winning the Battle Against Corrosion
To protect their steel plates and beams from corrosion, this shipbuilder turned to automated surface finishing that operates faster, improves blast and paint quality, handles larger plates and eliminates nearly all sources of emissions for a more efficient and environmentally friendly process – with little or no human involvement.
Angle Roll for Precision Bending of a Wide Range of Tube, Pipe and Profiles
The CE60H3 angle roll from Ercolina operates in either the vertical or horizontal position, with a maximum bending capacity of 3 in schedule 10. Its control tower with low voltage controls has foot pedal for hands-free operation. Programmable touchpad controls with digital center roll positioning increase repeatability.
Twice the Cutting Speed on Thick Plates
The new Highspeed and Highspeed Eco nozzles and flexible TruLaser 3030 fiber and TruLaser 2030 fiber with LiftMaster Shuttle from TRUMPF allow for a nearly twofold increase in sheet throughput compared to standard cutting.
Punch Heavy Plates Instead of Drilling or Burning Them
The Geka Hydracrop 220 SD ironworker from COMEQ uses a semi-automatic gauging system and a punch capacity of over 240 tons to punch up to 1-9/16 in diameter holes thru 1-1/2 in thick A36 steel plate so that users can now punch heavy plates that would normally require drilling or burning.
A New Beam of Light
Talk about serious payback: A technology upgrade to a seven-axis robotically-controlled plasma cutting system paid off tenfold for this Montana fabricator. They even hired more than a dozen people to handle the increased workload generated by the new system.
