CNC Wire Forming bends round or flat wire (up to 12 mm diameter) into complex 2-D and 3-D shapes using multi-axis servo-controlled wire benders with integrated vision and laser feedback. This process achieves high precision and repeatability for clips, springs, pins, and custom fasteners across various metal alloys.

Wire Forming bends or co-coins continuous wire into 2-D or 3-D shapes using CNC wire-bending, fourslide, or cam-driven machines. The process produces clips, hooks, springs, pins, and custom fasteners directly from coil stock with minimal material waste. Servo-controlled feed, rotary tooling, and in-line cutting deliver repeatable geometric accuracy and high production throughput across carbon steel, stainless, copper alloys, aluminium, and exotic super-alloy wires.

Wire Forming

Forms round or flat wire (≤ 8 mm Ø) into multi-plane shapes using CNC servo benders with inline vision and laser feedback.

2-D / 3-D Wire Forming

CNC Spring Coiling forms wire into helical coils using multi-axis, servo-controlled coilers with real-time diameter and pitch feedback for tight tolerances.

CNC Spring Coiling

Coining is a high-pressure stamping operation that plastically flows metal to create crisp, shallow relief features with minimal spring-back, achieving tight geometry and superior edge definition.

Coining

Tapping is a process in CNC milling used to create internal threads within a hole, allowing for the insertion of a threaded bolt or screw. This process requires precision to ensure thread integrity and alignment. Tapping is widely used across various industries, particularly in assembly and mechanical components where threaded fastening is essential.

Tapping

Swaging is a radial-forging forming process that plastically reduces or reshapes the cross-section of bar, rod, or tube by cyclic hammer blows from opposing dies. Material flows inward around the mandrel (solid rod) or outward over a mandrel (hollow tube), enabling precise diameter reduction, tapered profiles, or wall-thickness redistribution with minimal scrap.

Swaging

CNC Wire Forming

Robotic Arc Welding employs automated multi-axis robots for MIG, TIG, or resistance welding with seam tracking and adaptive weave controls. This ensures consistent, high-quality welds for structural and industrial applications with improved throughput and repeatability.

Automated MIG/TIG or resistance welding cells using multi-axis robots with seam tracking and adaptive weave for repeatable, high-volume joint quality.

Robotic Welding

Gas-metal-arc welding using solid or metal-cored wire with inert/active shielding gas. Offers high deposition rate and ease of automation for steel, stainless and aluminium fabrication.

MIG (GMAW) Welding

Arc Welding uses an electrical arc to fuse metals, typically employing a consumable or non-consumable electrode. This technique is widely used for structural and industrial applications, offering strong, reliable welds on a variety of metals.

Robotic Arc Welding

Stamping and Coining processes shape metal sheets and strips into precise parts using presses and dies. Coining applies high-pressure stamping for crisp, shallow relief features with minimal spring-back, enabling tight tolerances and superior edge definition for components.

Punching and stamping involve shaping metal by pressing it into a die. Punching creates holes or indents, while stamping forms the metal into specific shapes.

Punching and Stamping

Stamping presses metal into a die to form specific shapes and features, enabling high-volume production of uniform parts.

Stamping

Progressive Stamping utilizes multiple stations in a single strip of metal, forming complex parts in a continuous, efficient process.

Progressive Stamping

Deep Drawn Stamping forms hollow or cylindrical parts by drawing metal into a die deeper than it is wide, yielding seamless, high-strength components.

Secondary finishing processes enhance part appearance, corrosion resistance, and functionality through coatings and surface treatments. Services include electrostatic powder coating, plating, passivation, and tumbling to meet demanding industrial standards.

Post-Processing refers to a range of operations that give manufactured parts their final functional and aesthetic qualities. After the primary shaping and machining, these processes, which can include surface finishing, heat treatments, painting, and plating, provide the necessary characteristics for performance, durability, and visual appeal. They ensure parts meet the stringent requirements of industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical, and consumer electronics, where the final product's finish is just as critical as its dimensions and material properties.

Post-Processing

Powder Coating is a dry finishing process where a powder material is applied to a metal surface, then cured under heat to form a hard, protective layer. This coating is durable, corrosion-resistant, and available in many colors, making it popular in automotive, appliance, and consumer goods industries.

Powder Coating

Plating involves coating a metal part with a thin layer of another metal—such as gold, silver, nickel, or zinc—through electrochemical processes. This enhances appearance, corrosion resistance, and electrical conductivity, used widely in electronics, automotive, and jewelry.

Plating

Low-chemistry-volume passivation, tin/zinc electro-plating, and black-oxide finishing tailored to sub-gram parts, using megasonic agitation and basketless fixtures to avoid tangling or hydrogen embrittlement.

Micro Component Passivation & Conversion Coatings

Tumbling is a post-processing method used to smooth and polish the surfaces of parts. It involves placing parts in a tumbler with abrasive media, which, when rotated, creates friction that removes rough edges and smoothens surfaces. This process is widely used for bulk finishing of small components in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and consumer goods, improving both the aesthetic appeal and functional quality of the parts.

Tumbling

Secondary Finishing Processes

Assembly and Kitting services include precision mechanical assembly, torque-controlled fastening, and consolidation of components into ready-to-use kits. Processes ensure traceability, quality control, and efficient line-side delivery for complex manufacturing workflows.
