OUR MACHINES

Metal Forming

Metal forming is a manufacturing process that involves shaping and manipulating metal materials into desired forms, using various processes.

Hand-On Industries offers Metal Forming solutions to meet the component/ assembly needs of our customers. Using a wide variety of hydraulic, flywheel and manual press machines and in-house press tool manufacturing, we manufacture complex components/ assemblies made from metals with high precision and consistency whilst achieving specified forming requirements.

Expertise in Metal Forming allows us to produce components that meet the exacting standards expected by our customers. Any form of design data (from hand sketches to full CAD models) can be used to produce parts. We integrate other manufacturing processes (such as welding, milling and turning) to produce our customers specified components/ assemblies. Whether a prototype or full production run is required, we will deliver quality results on time.

Details

Precision

  • Tolerances to within a few micrometers can be achieved through Metal Forming.
  • Repeatable production runs that adhere to tight tolerances can be easily achieved.
  • Reproducible results are easily achieved.

Repeatable

  • Blank specifications are precisely tuned to achieve desired components.
  • Bend quality is consistent and repeatable.
  • Difficult bends can be repeatedly completed by custom tooling.

Tooling

  • In-house tooling enables production of complex geometries.
  • Flexibility in tooling design aids in design iteration.

Integration

  • Integration of multiple processes achieves complex components/ assemblies.
  • Leveraging in-house CAD facilities ensures blank preparation is optimised.
  • Integration of vendor parts into formed components is easily achieved.
