Cost-Effective Solutions for Turning Aluminum Extrusions into Finished Parts

As a turnkey metal part and assembly manufacturer, we offer cost-effective finishing solutions for appliance and automotive OEMs challenged with turning a raw extrusion into a finished part with high level of finish or forming complexity.

With 70 years of experience under our belt, we pride ourselves on being the finishing and forming experts that OEMs turn to for highly aesthetic, superior class A surface parts.

Aluminum Extrusion Finishing and Forming Capabilities

While some metal fabricators do offer reasonably priced straight extensions, raw extrusions are a commodity with limited complexity. Much of the real value in an end product that meets or exceeds expectations is in the finishing process.

Our extrusion forming and finishing capabilities include:

  • Forming (Tubular hydroforming, stamping, roll forming, and bending)
  • Machining (Drilling and tapping, punching, automated deburring and sanding, and more)
  • CNC Machining (Fully-integrated prototyping, including 3D modeling, and production CNC machining)
  • Finishing (Superior powder coating and brushing/polishing)
