Complex geometries and tight tolerances

Our cold forming processes are ideally suited to manufacturing parts with complex geometries and tight tolerances. They enable us to produce large volumes with a high level of repeat accuracy – a key requirement for meeting the demanding standards of the automotive industry.

Thanks to our longstanding experience and the in-depth expertise of our engineers, we are able to develop individually tailored solutions that are precisely aligned with our customers’ specific requirements.

Innovative forming technology: metal processing through cold forming

Using high-performance machines and precise control systems, we transform metal blanks into highly complex components that meet the most rigorous requirements in terms of shape and strength. This forming process takes place at room temperature, strengthening the material structure and achieving excellent surface quality without the need for subsequent heat treatment. Our cold forming presses deliver extremely high press forces, enabling us to produce even demanding geometries and contours efficiently and cost-effectively.

Advanced forming cells ensure smooth processes and high output

FASTENRATH relies on state-of-the-art forming cells that ensure perfectly coordinated processes. These production units combine multiple forming stages, seamlessly linked to maintain a continuous process flow and maximum efficiency. This allows us to manufacture complex components with minimal lead times and maximum precision.

Our forming cells are designed to handle large production volumes reliably and economically, without compromising on quality. This lays the foundation for forward-looking manufacturing at the highest level.

Rigorous quality standards for every component

Cold forming at FASTENRATH embodies precision, efficiency and outstanding quality. Every step of the process is carefully monitored and controlled to ensure that each component meets our strict quality standards.

Whether standard nuts or specialised components: we deliver products that set benchmarks in precision and reliability.

High load capacity, a wide range of shapes and materials

At FASTENRATH, we specialise in the cold forming of nuts and other fasteners. This advanced process enables us to manufacture complex metal components in a wide variety of designs and materials that can withstand the very highest loads.

Using state-of-the-art machinery and technologies, we are able to form metal precisely and efficiently without heating it, resulting in significant material savings and improved strength in the finished products.
