Industrial uses of spinnings and stamped/drawn parts are numerous. TMS can spin up to 3/16” stainless steel. The company can also draw up to a 48” blank. Heavy conical shapes, large cylinders, thick cups and hemispheres are found on the shop floor at TMS on a daily basis.
Metal fabrication is essential for manufacturing nearly all equipment, infrastructure, and machinery required for oil exploration, extraction, and refining. These processes demand exceptionally durable metal applications designed to withstand harsh environments and long-term use. This process involves shaping metals into essential components such as pipes, storage tanks, drilling equipment, and offshore platform structures using techniques like rolling, welding, metal spinning, stamping, bending, and machining.
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 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. Custom Cylinder Configurator Customize Roll Bending Also known as angle bending or plate rolling, this is
Importance of American-Made Manufacturing Purchasing a product with the “Made in the USA” logo gives American consumers a sense of freedom, pride and satisfaction, knowing they are contributing to our economy and supporting American jobs, and fellow Americans. The manufacturing industry in the United States helps to increase jobs, careers, and opportunities, especially when their
Importance of Craftsmanship in the Oil and Gas Industry Metal Forming in the oil industry Metal forming is used to create nearly all of the equipment and infrastructure in the oil industry. Metal forming refers to the process of shaping metals into various shapes and components such as pipes, storage tanks, drilling equipment, and offshore
The Importance of Craftsmanship in a Marine Environment The Importance of Craftsmanship in Marine Engineering and` Manufacturing Marine and underwater environments come with the harshest of conditions, leaving no for error when engineering and fabricating oceanic and seafaring components. Through a variety of metal forming processes, creating durable and long-lasting parts is effortlessly achieved, ensuring
Metal Spinning Tooling There are two general types of tooling for metal spinning processes: wood and steel. CNC lathes are equipped with hydraulicly actuated arms that generate a tremendous amount of pressure from the material being spun to the tooling underneath it. When the material is formed to the tools, the pressure increases by a
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 CNC Metal Spinning? What does CNC stand for? CNC Stands for Computer Numerical Control, which allows our lathes to execute programmed spin cycles with remarkable accuracy. This technology has revolutionized metal spinning and metal fabricating, always ensuring tight tolerances and delivering unmatched precision. The repeatability of these programs enhances efficiency and reduces production
