Metal Spinning / Flow Turning
...Simple forms like a dish-shaped parabola, for example, can be made in one operation. Two or more formers can be used for more complex shapes. A high level of manual skill is involved. Automatic spinning machines with robot assistance are also used to produce higher volume production, e.g. hot-water cylinder bases, with a cycle time of 25 s per component. Can be used as a...
