Forming of Plates
In Progress

 

Shown is our machine for UltraTall™ Windtower Production. The version of the machine shown has six induction forming heads and forms 10'x40'x5/8" plates to shape in about 6 hours. Full production versions of this system will have 60 heads and form a plate in 15 minutes.

The OLP Advantage

 

<------- Your CAD image of the desired part is imported into our OLP, where the processing needed to create the desired shape is determined. Then the OLP writes out machine controller instructions to execute the process needed to create your part. The final product is your formed part -------->
