Where your GOOD IDEAS turn into GOOD, QUALITY PRODUCTS
Special holes
We understand that from time there is the need to punch or drill special holes in the parts that are ordered for us. We have many fully capable mills and a strippit punch press that helps us make holes or slots of varying sizes, we usually tend to make the holes or slots while the material is still flat to further facilitate the process.
We have a wide variety of manual lathes to assist us with the making of any tooling

metal spinning
There are many things to consider when drawing a product to be manufactured through the metal spinning process
facts to consider about good ideas metal spinning
-In house toolings, with a one time charge per new part
-Tooling can be taken with customer or left at GOOD IDEAS METAL SPINNING
-Spin radius up to 36" or a total of 72" in diamter
-We can spin Stainless Steel parts that are 11 gage which is the equivalent of 1/8"(0.125 inches) thick
-We can spin Steel parts that are up to 3/16"(0.1875) thick or about material that is 7 gage in thickness.
-We can spin Aluminum parts that are up to 3/16'"(0.1875 inches) thick or the equivalent of 7 gage material.
-We have fully capable press brake machines to make box like products/ shapes
Shape
The majority of parts that are metal spun are done so with a concentric shape. The parts are spun round which mean that the parts are allowed a wide range of radii. The shapes however don't have to be completely sphere-like, one of the advantages of metal spinning is that we can put ribs, hems, embosses, steps and beads into the shape of the part which also help add to the rigidness of the part. When adding rigidness to the part we are also allowing for use of a lighter material because the it will be harder than a simple smooth service.
Tooling
When considering metal spinning vs other methods of manufacturing a product it is always a GOOD IDEA to consider what the tooling cost will be. In comparison to other methods of making parts like stamping or hydroforming metal spinning has a relatively low tooling cost. We make all of our toolings in house which allows us to use wood or steel depending on the need of the customer, we also offer low cost plans if the customer does not wish to take the tooling and leave it at GOOD IDEAS METAL SPINNING. We honor our word when we say that a companies tooling will be used solely for the making of that companies parts unless authorized by said company for use by someone else.
