About cold and warm metal forming

Among all manufacturing processes, cold or warmmetal forming technology has a special place because it helps to produce parts of superior mechanical properties with no or minimum waste of material at high speeds.

Forming to net or to near net shape dimensions will drastically eliminate or reduce secondary operations (metal removal requirements) resulting in significant material and energy savings.

Cold or warm metal forming is economically attractive when a large number of parts must be produced and/or mechanical properties required in the end product can be realized only by a cold or warm forming process.

What is cold or warm metal forming?
The starting material is a rod or coiled wire. The multistation cold or warm metal forming machine will feed the rod or wire to the cut-off station where it is sheared to the appropriate length and then plastically deformed in one or more stations into a desired shape of relatively complex configuration.

Benefits of cold or warm metal forming
- Substitute for conventional production methods; e.g. turning, milling, grinding, drilling and welding.
- Speed.
- Material saving and elimination of scrap.
- Consistently high mechanical properties.
- Superb product quality on geometry and accuracy, tolerances and surface finish.
- Environmentally friendly.
