In addition, assemblies of two or more pieces can be assembled into one part, eliminating assembly or welding operations and minimizing part handling. A wide variety of shapes, sizes, hole types, head styles and more can be achieved through the cold forming process. View our Capabilities page for more information on what we can do for you. Cold Forming is a high speed manufacturing process that produces parts by metal flow aluminum due to machine applied pressure as opposed to metal removal by cutting. Cold Forming is the primary manufacturing operation of the fastener industry. The capabilities of Cold Forming go far beyond just the manufacturing of fasteners extending into almost infinite variety of special designed parts.

Since Forming aluminum & Coining has been a proven leader in the manufacture of high quality net to near net shaped Cold Formed and Impact Extruded components for the Automotive, Commercial Truck, Off-Highway, Industrial and AerospaceMarkets. From our agricultural roots, Metal & Coining has advanced over the years into the manufacture of Engine, Automatic Transmission, Transfer Case and Driveline Products. Stretch thinking has resulted in precise component manufacturing to strict cost control parameters. In fact the demands of our customers are what honed our capabilities and sharpened our desire to achieve ever-increasing levels of quality and productivity.Today, numerous awards recognize our dedication aluminum to quality; they give unspoken testimony to our ability to engineer within tight tolerances at the lowest cost. With a new philosophy, "Net Form Technology Integratio" Metal & Coining has created a new subsidiary, OUR COMAPNY that will leverage the company''s core competencies to develop new products and solutions for its customers. The goal is to provide our customers with the ultimate in net-formed components. MFC NETFORM will focus on implementing the most advanced metal processes. By integrating differing metal processes they become part of a total solution, thus we are able to deliver new thinking and enhanced performance for our customers.

Spinning, aluminum radial riveting, spin riveting and peening are terms often used to refer to orbitforming, a cold-forming process that uses an orbiting tool to swage, head, crown, flare, or form a column or projection of malleable material for the purpose of fastening in assembly operations. The process is similar to impact and compression forming, where aluminum the tool applies a compressive axial load to permanently deform the part, according a designer, manufacturer, and integrator of forming, fastening and assembly systems The difference is that in orbital, the tool rotates at a fixed angle-typically 3 to 6 degrees-and applies both axial and radial forces to progressively move malleable material into a desired, predetermined shape. Unlike impact or compression forming, where the process is completed in a single pass, forming requires several tool revolutions and typically takes 1.5 to 3 seconds to complete. Additionally, most of the work during orbital is at the tool''s line of contact, not along the entire tool surface. The resulting small-contact area reduces axial loads by as much as 80 percent.
