FABRICATION
-
Deep drawing - Deep drawing is a sheet metal forming process in which a sheet metal blank is radially drawn into a forming die by the mechanical action of a punch. It is thus a shape transformation process with material retention.
Very quick manufacturing process
Produces closed ends on a part
ADVANTAGES
Seamless (no need for joining)
Accurate
Parts are very strong
-
Low cost quality tooling - Tooling, also known as machine tooling, is the process of acquiring the manufacturing components and machines needed for production. The common categories of machine tooling include fixtures, jigs, gauges, moulds, dies, cutting equipment and patterns.
-
Spinning - Metal spinning, also known as spin forming or spinning or metal turning most commonly, is a metalworking process by which a disc or tube of metal is rotated at high speed and formed into an axially symmetric part. Spinning can be performed by hand or by a CNC lathe.
Strengthens the metal
ADVANTAGES
Easy to modify the design
Burr free
