TMS is a leader and serves as an integral partner in the building and maintenance of food manufacturing equipment. Since 1929 we have been producing high quality, durable parts, such as hoppers, cones, kettles, cups and lids with the food manufacturer in mind. Our stocked parts are made from either 304 or 316 stainless steel. We welcome the opportunity to modify TMS stocked parts and create something that is unique for your company, or use one of our standard designs.
We are professionals at welding sanitary fittings, finishing parts to a smooth brushed finish, and increasing the volume capacity, gallons or liters, to customize a part just for you. We accomplish this by producing cylinders which can be welded to a cone to add length, thus increase volume capacity. TMS ensures all seam welds have very low porosity and are smooth to ensure your product flows freely and clean out is easy.
Whether you are in need of prototype or production quantities, we want to work with you. The collaboration between our customers, sales representatives, and engineers ensure that our customers receive the highest quality parts in a timely manner. Contact us today and we will begin immediately to work towards manufacturing your parts.

Cylinders – The Forming Process Custom cylinders are made through a process that begins by putting a flat sheet of material into the laser and programming it to cut rectangles out of various materials to specific sizes. If the cylinder has any customizations or features including custom holes, windows or other shapes, these are cut
What are the Advantages of Metal Spinning? At Toledo Metal Spinning Company, metal spinning has been at the core of who we are for nearly a century. We have been forming metals since 1929, beginning with being solely a metal spinning company. There are many different benefits to this process, which is one reason we
What is the Difference Between Bending and Rolling Metal? What is the difference between bending and rolling a metal sheet? At Toledo Metal Spinning, when we fabricate our cylindrical tanks and tubes, we use the process of roll bending. Roll Bending Also known as angle bending or plate rolling, this is the process of bending
Clarifying Elements to the Deep Draw Design Process – The Draw Ratio When it comes to tool design, the most important formula is The Draw Ratio, also known as Limiting Draw Ratio (LDR). The formula is: LDR = D / d D = blank diameter d = cup ID or punch diameter This ratio shows
Commonly Asked Questions about Cylindrical Applications What are stainless steel spools? A spool is a fabricated length of tubing with clamp fittings, or flanges at both ends. A couple popular names are cylinders, extensions, tubes, spools, rings, or cylinders. These pieces are classified as spools when the flanges are on both ends. What is a
What is Seam Welding? Seam welding is the process of joining two similar or different materials together, at the seam, by electronic current and pressure. The gap creates an electrical resistance between the materials, which causes them to heat up at the seam. This process is most common with metals, because they conduct electricity easily,
Deep Drawing and Stamping With Copper Deep Drawing is one of our most popular processes at Toledo Metal Spinning Company. We are able to run large numbers of parts in a short amount of time, with extreme accuracy and precision. Copper has great malleability, meaning it can be stretched without breaking, which is ideal for Deep
Deep Drawing: Key Variables Impacting Metal Flow Material Type Materials we use at Toledo Metal Spinning include: Stainless Steel Cold Rolled Steel Copper Brass Aluminum Some of the most important aspects of Deep Drawing are as follows: Blank Size Material Thickness Part Shape Part Geometry Draw Radii Draw Ratio Lubricants Die Surface Finish Die Temperature
