(Also known as Spinning or Spin Forming) is a metal manipulating method by which a disc or tube of metal is rotated at various speeds and formed into an axially symmetrical part. We perform spinning by hand and on CNC Lathe.

Commercial applications includes nose cones, cookware, cylinders, brass instruments, bells, and waste receptacles. Virtually any pliable metal may be formed from aluminum or stainless steel to high-strength, high-temperature alloys.

A sheet metal forming process in which a sheet metal blank is drawn into a forming die by the mechanical action of a punch. The method of Deep Drawing also benefits from a wide variety of metals that can efficiently be subjected to the process.

Deep Drawing is an ideal application for:

• Seamless parts

• Highly detailed asymmetrical parts with exceptional accuracy

• Large quantities of rapid reproduction

• Precision parts in a short time frame

• Minimizing production times and costs

(Computerized Numerically Controlled)

Here at Research Metal Industries, we use the latest technology for increased consistency and precision including CNC machining. CNC machining performs curves as easy as straight lines and makes complex 3-D structures relatively easy to produce.

CNC automation reduces the frequency of errors and provides our CNC operators with time to perform additional tasks. CNC automation also allows for more flexibility in how parts are regulated in the manufacturing process, and time required changing components can be adjusted.

(Electrical Discharge Machining)

We use this method of machining for harder metals or metals that would be more difficult to machine using conventional techniques. Typically used with electrically conductive materials, Wire EDM offers a wide range of possibilities.

Using a mixture of water at high velocity and pressure and various abrasive substances, Water Jet Cutting is the preferred method when the materials being cut are sensitive to the high temperatures generated by other methods. Water Jet can be used for simply cutting, shaping, carving, and reaming and does not cause heat damage to material surface or edges.
