Leifeld metal spinning machines: efficient forming for complex, symmetrical shapes

Metal spinning is a chipless forming method in which a rotating metal disc, or blank, is pressed against a mandrel and plastically formed into a seamless, hollow part with rotational symmetry. Unlike subtractive methods, this process reshapes the material without producing waste. Leifeld has refined this process through its SC series of spinning automats, offering high-speed, programmable machines designed for accuracy and efficiency. These systems are an excellent alternative to traditional deep drawing, especially for small and medium batch production or when complex geometries are involved.

Advantages of Leifeld spinning machines

  • Efficient production: fast cycle times and automation compatibility, including robotic integration, allow for high productivity across different batch sizes

  • Reduced tooling costs: forming tools used in spinning are often less expensive than those for deep drawing processes

  • Maximum material efficiency: chipless forming minimizes waste, which lowers cost and supports more sustainable production methods

  • Wide material compatibility: suitable for processing steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, brass, and titanium

  • High part quality: delivers excellent surface finish, dimensional accuracy, and consistent wall thickness across all parts
