Overview:
Emphasizing the need for a reliable technology for producing failsafe mission-critical cylindrical parts, this paper presents Buckeye Shapeform deep draw process as an affordable technology for making high-quality mission-critical parts. It reviews the shortfalls of the conventional production alternatives like impact, spinning and supplemental annealing, and explains the reverse draw process of Buckeye Shapeform, which results in seamless, one piece parts with multiple wall thickness and diameters created through minimal operations. Material and process benefits offered by the deep draw process over conventional production alternatives are stated, including some real-world examples that illustrate the many benefits of the Buckeye Shapeform deep draw process. The paper also lists the various services provided by Buckeye Shapeform.
