Metal Forming Solutions
In the metal forming process, semi-finished products like metal strips or wires are precisely shaped using radial or linear bending tools within a stamping and forming machine. Every movement of the bending tool—stroke, duration, and speed—is fully customizable via cams or NC units, allowing for optimized machine speeds and individual adjustments for each processing station.
This advanced approach ensures reliable and precise workpiece shaping, combining optimized motion sequences with material-friendly processes that maintain the integrity of the metal. The result is high precision, exceptional repeatability, and consistent quality.
With durable tools and extended tool life, this process delivers cost-efficient, consistent production tailored to meet a variety of manufacturing needs. Experience superior performance and reliability with innovative metal forming solutions designed to elevate your production capabilities.
