CWR Manufacturing, LLC

CWR is the recognized leader in the application of advanced cold forming technologies to achieve fast and economical high volume production for a wide range of products. Cold forming, and related solid metal forming techniques such as rod heading, wire forming, thread rolling, and bending, can be used to produce finished parts without the aid of heat.

Cold forming is the ideal alternative to machining, fabricating, and welding operations for many applications.

CWR Advantages

Superior Products

Cold forming produces finished parts that are superior to their machined versions in less time and at lower cost.  With machining, up to 80% of the original material may have to be removed to produce the required part geometry. Our specialized and multi-stage cold forming techniques enable us to completely eliminate machining operations for most parts.

Both symmetrical and non-symmetrical part features can be readily cold formed instead of machined. Complex internal features, such as square blind holes, that are difficult or impossible to machine with conventional methods can be created directly at high speeds using our cold forming techniques.

CWR maintains equipment capable of producing hundreds of small, high tolerance, parts per minute. Parts such as gears, shafts, studs, pins, collars, spacers, and specialized fasteners can be rapidly produced through our cold forming techniques.

Cold forming techniques can also help ensure the quality and reliability of your company's end products. Our custom tooled processes produce parts that:

• Meet or exceed technical specifications
• Are significantly stronger than machined parts of the same geometry
• Exhibit superior shock and vibration resistance
• Are suitable for exposed and/or cosmetic applications
• Are smooth finished for safety and ease in handling

Minimized Costs

Through the application of advanced cold forming techniques, CWR can help your company minimize costs for:

• Material
• Handling
• Machining
• Shipping
• Assembly
• Inventory
• Cleaning
• Installation

Cold forming techniques are environmentally friendly - producing little or no material waste.

Since cold forming produces parts that are stronger than the equivalent machined versions, it may also be possible to substitute lower cost materials or to reduce part size or weight while meeting the original design strength requirements.
