KOVAR METAL SPINNING
Metal spinning is a highly effective technique for shaping metal. Imagine a potter who’s shaping clay on a wheel—metal spinning is similar, but instead of clay, metal is used. The process involves rotating a circular sheet metal blank at high speeds while applying pressure with a tool to mold it around a mandrel—a cost effective way to create symmetrical objects like cones, cylinders, and domes with smooth finishes and high precision.
When it comes to Kovar, metal spinning offers some significant benefits:
- Unique Properties: Maintains low thermal expansion and integrity during spinning.
- Precision Metal Forming: Crucial for application in electronics and aerospace.
- Efficiency: Reduces waste and often eliminates the need for additional machining.
