MJC Engineering (Huntington Beach, CA) is a custom machine tool builder specializing in metalforming machines for such applications as spinning, flow forming, wheel spinning and rotary forging. Te company was recently contracted by the Advanced Forming Research Centre (AFRC) at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, for a very unique application, namely, a cold-forming rotary forge press that works the material between two synchronized rotary dies. Te dies operate in angle from the parallel. Typically, the angle is fixed but, on this custom
Machine makers in California help
