Hola amigo muy buen trabajo , necesito saber de se pudiera hacer un tubo de aluminio de 12 mm de diámetro , agradezco su respuesta me es de mucha importancia de antemano gracias.

i do the same stuff l. i used to live in w.v.❤

Nicely done

Please send price

How does 6061 compare to 1100 O when you spin it?

It's called duraspin. Before it was machined to shape they call it part of an ingot. As a unformed disk it's $500.00. Most expensive rollerblade you'll ever find.

Tell me please. how correctly this machine is called

I don't imagine that "point of anneal" is something you pickup on your first attempt?

Sir you use this tools with barring or normal

Good

No, this is customer owned tooling and is for their production.only.

can u product a little supply for a private?

Its really good art... sir can you give us your contect information..

what is the material used in the steps spinning stainless or aluminum?

I used to be a metal spinner years ago, and I was wondering why you didn't to a roller-break on this before you started spinning? On second look, I see that you don't have a rear pin on your fork (which is where you would put a 2x4 to use a backer behind the blank to produce a stabilizing curl with the roller).

You make it look easy! Nice work! Is there a special grade of steel you use, or is it regular mild steel?

so in order to spin metal, you will most definitely need a mould?

Very cool (and I'm not talking about the temperature in the shop, either). Is it possible to spin a shallow dish in 14ga (0.075") CRS? I need to make a chip pan for a WWII-era metal lathe I'm restoring. The pan is rectangular with a 45-degree wire-rolled lip around the perimeter. The corners, however, need to be radiused. That beveled radius is a bear to form in one piece without something like this. After forming the pie pan shape I thought I could cut it into fourths and weld the corners into the main rectangular portion bent on a standard press brake. Doable at home on a 16" South Bend lathe? Thanks! Nice work!

Thanks can I ask where you got your lathe from im looking for a custom lathe. One that will swing 160"/4000mm doesn't matter about between centres

sorry how many rpm

This also is on the same custom lathe we show the tube spinning on. It's a 3hp varidrive machine with a quick action tailstock.

This particular lathe is a 32" Grabo 4 speed, 5 hp with a crank tailstock. Very stout machine with babbitts.

It's a custom build variable speed lathe with 30" swing.

What lathe do you use

can i ask what lathe you are using

what lathe is that you are using

Damn that's cool

How is the tube fixtured on the chuck side of the lathe?

I think you'll find this is actually Shear Forming and NOT Flow Forming. Flow Forming is a totally different process.

Got a dislike from someone in New Zealand without any comments. That's like throwing a rock on a freeway overpass, hitting a car below and hiding. What was he/she expecting to find? This is educational as to a method of spinning/ fabrication. I think it shows that.

What is that wheel made of? The one contacting the tube.

Any tips on spinning a venturi, ie a stainless tube narrowing in the centre. Would it need a 2 piece inner template?

Yes, there is a lot of actual craft going on there. I wish I understood the hints the spinner gets to know when to work which bit.

We charge more for this piece than the large piece in FLOWFORMING BY HAND, NOT REGULAR SPINNING.wmv Not because of the material but because of the difficulty to make it. It is obvious a lot more labor goes into spinning the smaller part than the much larger part. Both require a lot of operator skill. Even charging more, this piece is still much less expensive than a CNC billet machined piece.

Thank-you for posting the video. Now I know how some of my antique lights were made. I could tell by looking at them that they were machined, just did not know the exact process. I thought they must have been machined from a larger, thicker, piece of metal, but I see now that was not the case.

If you can't handle the music turn the volume down, We're in a steel building that only gets about 2 radio stations. It's background noise while the machines aren't making any noise of their own.

3:25 to see a wider view

It is spinning. There are 2 heavy duty bearings mounted in this roller which is rolling on an axle mounted between a fork end.

The wheel shaped at the end of your forming tool it it steady or spinning like a ball bearing Thank you

Hi, The difference is that regular spinning generally consists of 3 basic operation of reduce, stretch and lay down which can take a long time and takes less pressures.. This way the material is usually kept thicker. With flow forming all three operations are done at the same time and usually will results in thinner material than regular hand spinning and is much harder to control and needing increased pressures.

Hi, I have no experience in this, but was is different here than in regular spinning?

Awesome

good tool !! thanyou for showing.

This particular part was used in lighting fixtures. The account previously was getting them done by swaging method costing about 3 -4 times as much as spinning. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask. We do custom spun parts from aluminum, brass, copper, steel and stainless mostly and typically range from 1/2" to 25" diameter with thickness varying according to material .020" to 1/8". We only do hand spinning at this time along with many other fabrication processes.. Thanks

Just curious, what was the end product? It may be interesting to others to know where all metal spun products can or are used.
