Fabrication & Cutting

Today, parts cleaning mostly means to fulfill defined cleanliness specifications. In order to clean as economically as possible, the potential of the cleaning system needs to be fully exploited. This is often prevented by the cleaning container. With the MEFO-BOX system, Metallform has developed a solution whose well thought-out design offers key advantages.

Dry ice cleaning is an innovative cleaning technology that can save both time and money in nearly any manufacturing environment. It is similar to other types of media blasting, but the Cold Jet systems use recycled CO2 in the form of dry ice to clean and prepare surfaces.

By its very nature, high-nickel, iron or cobalt alloy steels, including Monel, Inconel, Incoloy, Invar, Rene and Hasteloy, are some of the most difficult materials to machine. Because these superalloys are designed to deliver high strength at extremely high temperatures in components often found in "hot" sections of engines and turbines, the stresses and heat generated during machining are considerable.

In today's competitive environment, everyone is on the lookout for ways make their business operations more profitable. Sometimes, simply cutting costs can seem like an attractive way to reach this goal. However, simply reducing the cost of equipment or a process is not a guarantee of success.

There are relatively small, budget-friendly machines on the market that might meet your needs.

Honing the edge of a cutting tool improves tool life, improves workpiece surface finish, reduces spindle load and reduces overall manufacturing cost.
