Our realisations

Feel free to browse our diverse portfolio of engineering accomplishments across the hydraulics, textiles, agriculture, mining, or military industries.

  • Hydraulic motor pistons

    This video show a Torrington #434DC die-closing swaging machine, equipped with a semi-automatic feeder, used to swage the piston heads over the spherical tip of the piston bodies to form a completed hydraulic motor component.

     

    The die-closing swaging machine technology allows the feeder and the part support mounted inside the swaging machine to properly position the body and the cap. Once swaged, a perfect spherical joint is achieved.

  • Cold swaging of tungsten rods

    TFM’s machines can also withstand very heavy duty applications. For example, our 1047 rotary swaging machine can swage bars up to 1 3/8″ in diameter and 3 1/2″ for tubes. 

    ​

    This video showcases a special version of the 1047 in which the head and spindle rotate in opposite directions. This configuration allows the reduction of forces felt by the part while keeping the same number of forming strokes. This innovation was required given the low ductility of the material at hand, Tungsten.

    ​

    This machine also came equipment with semi-automatic feeder and extractor which could accomodate bars up to 2 feet long.

Other industries

In addition to the main industries highlighted previously, TFM’s equipment is also used in multiple other manufacturing areas such as, but not limited to, hydraulics, textiles, agriculture, and mining.
