Economics of Metal Spinning

The cost-effectiveness of metal spinning and shear forming is characterised on the one hand by the possibility of combining the two techniques and on the other by the range of secondary forming or machining operations which can be carried out in the same set-up.

Compared to methods such as pressing and deep drawing, spinning and shear forming involve lower forces and require loss power. This in turn means that the equipment can be cost-effectively engineered in terms of rigidity and size as well as a number of individual assemblies.
