 The
versatility of the fourslide affords lower cost tooling coupled
with multiple slide motions not available in a typical progressive
metal stamping operation. The fourslide metal forming process
produces quality, close tolerance components.
We also offer
in-die insertion of electrical contacts, rivets, PEM® Fasteners
and screws. Gemco can also provide in-die thread tapping,
in-die spot welding, and two stage tooling that eliminates
secondary operations thus reducing component costs.
The fourslide process can produce complicated wireforms and
wireform components with consistent adherence to tolerances
and higher speeds than CNC wireforming thus producing lower
component costs.
Our Fourslide Machines provide Gemco with excellent capacity
in both strip and wire forms. These machines allow us to form
strip metal from .004 through .078 thick and wire diameters
from .010 through .1875, depending on the complexity of the
part.
