What is CNC Metal Spinning?

CNC metal spinning is a specialized forming process where metal discs or tubes are shaped into hollow, round parts. Unlike traditional methods, our computer-controlled machines apply dynamic pressure to precisely form metal while it spins. This gives you perfect wall thickness control and amazing surface finish every time.
