Eliminating costly operations without cutting corners = big competitive advantages.
Sükosim is a proprietary process that combines deep-draw stamping with cold forming into a single process. The process is run as a coil-fed, progressive stamping and requires a very large press. Our unique process produces extruded wall thicknesses that are more than double that of the base metal. The result is a superior part that offers strength optimization while reducing weight. Other benefits include:
- Thicker extrusion walls add strength and allow for re-tapping and threading
- Tapping in-die eliminates possibility of missing fasteners – resulting in fewer operations and higher quality
- Fewer parts means decreased or eliminated assembly times
- Eliminates welding; weld flash; stress point fatigue; and misalignment
- Allows for shorter extrusions than weld/stake nuts for tighter spaces
