Cold Formed Products

Through our network of key partners in Europe, the Far East and Asia we can supply intricate forms, produced using the latest in multi-die heading machine technology, incorporating SPC during the manufacturing cycle.

Cold forming is a high-speed forging process where coiled wire, at room temperature, is fed through a cold-forming machine. The material is sheared to the required length and then progressively moved through a succession of punches and dies to reshape the working metal (either larger/smaller in diameter, longer/shorter in length), resulting in the desired product. Additional operations, can then be applied to arrive at the finished design.

Benefits

    • Technological and structural superiority to alternate processes such as screw machining, die-casting, powdered metal and hot forging.
    • Because material is re-shaped during heading process instead of being chipped away, virtually no materials are wasted.
    • Because cold forming causes grain flow to follow part configuration, cold formed parts exhibit higher resistance to fracture and fatigue which demonstrates greater strength and durability.

Bottom line:

    • cold forming produces stronger parts
    • with less waste
    • At lower cost

Materials we specialise in include steel, brass and stainless steel. For high strength applications in steel, the 8.8 high tensile grade is the preferred choice.
