Some products simply cannot afford to fail. Ever. Like the breathing tanks used by firefighters and miners. The missiles deployed by our military. Or the brake system filter cases used by automobile manufactures. In applications where product performance is mission critical, commercial, military and aerospace companies need technology they can rely on to manufacture deep-drawn cylindrical product components that deliver superior product integrity and optimal performance results. Every time.
But the fact is, many conventional production alternatives — like impact, spinning and supplemental annealing — fall far short when it comes to producing some failsafe, mission-critical parts. These traditional processes cannot deliver consistently reliable results for certain applications. They often use more raw materials than product specifications require, adding to the overall cost and weight of products. And they can make assembly of finished products difficult.
In instances when product characteristics can mean the difference between success or failure — or even life or death — the imperfections inherent in traditional processes beg the need for a more advanced manufacturing alternative.
