Automotive Industry
FENN manufactures a variety of metal forming equipment that continues to play a crucial role in today’s competitive automotive industry. Metal forming machinery is utilized for a diverse range of automotive applications, including suspension springs and retaining rings, snap rings and drive shafts. Our equipment efficiently produces crucial automotive components compliant with all major OEM specifications. We work with several tier 1, tier 2, and tier 3 automotive suppliers who trust FENN equipment to create highly efficient solutions for vehicles on the road today.
Our Swagers support the automotive manufacturing industry through many applications, including:
- Drive shafts
- Half-shaft/axels
- Emergency brake cables
- Steering components
We provide high-quality swagers as a low-cost way to efficiently point, reduce, and form rod, tube or wire. Swaging is the process of forging metal by means of a series of rapid blows, delivered by rotating hammers and forms dies, around a piece of work. This can be performed as a hot or cold process, although cold swaging is popular because of its hardening effect on most materials.
Global automotive part suppliers rely on our Rolling Mills for precise reduction of material for a variety of automotive components including, but not limited to:
- Collets
- Snap rings
- Bearing steel
Offering a wide range of standard and customized mills, FENN’s machines are available for hot/cold rolling operations in both 2Hi and 4Hi roll configurations. Rolling Mills with work rolls are offered as small as .500″ (12.7mm) in diameter and can be as large as up to 16″ (400mm) in diameter. Contact us to learn how our Rolling Mills line can help increase your business's productivity.
FENN offers both single and dual point Torin Spring Coilers. Torin Coilers can produce a variety of spring types including compression, extension, torsion, magazine, belting, rings and wire forms with wire diameters ranging from .003” to .750” (.076 – 19mm). All Torin Coilers are designed and built in the USA.
With so many different types of springs in every car or truck on the road, spring coiling machines are essential to the automotive industry. FENN’s Torin line of Spring Coilers has been around for decades, making high-quality springs used in many different areas of the car. Some applications for automotive-focused spring coiling machines include:
- Squealer springs – utilized as a brake-wear indicator
- Clutch springs
- Suspension springs
- Stainless steel caliber return springs
- Valve train springs
- Door springs
- Throttle return springs
- Exhaust flanges
- Retaining rings
FZ Series Single Point Spring Coilers can quickly produce a wide variety of springs and wire forms on a single wire coiling machine, all with uncompromised accuracy, repeatability, and flexibility. The Revolution Series utilizes the same robust mechanics, and reliable, accurate controls with the use of two-point coiling technology.
