Though often thought to be opposing methods of production, the utilization of both Cold Forming and Automatic Screw Machining gives TCR a unique competitive edge when developing the manufacturing process for parts. TCR Engineers can choose from a wide variety of Equipment to optimize machine selection and can match the quantity and job requirements with the most economical manufacturing techniques available.

In addition, TCR frequently makes design suggestions during prototype development, which increase operating efficiency and results in more economical production. In many cases, parts requiring small start-up quantities can be machined during the initial runs and then converted to Cold Forming as volume increases.

TCR also has extensive Secondary Capabilities. Since many of the items the company produces are not completed during primary manufacturing, TCR has developed a vast array of secondary forming and finishing equipment. TCR utilizes this equipment to perform a number of secondary operations on its manufactured parts including thread rolling, broaching, inertia welding, grinding, drilling, tapping, milling and induction heat treating. Many of these machines and processes are unique to TCR because they were either developed or built by the company or were standard equipment modified by the company to perform specific tasks.

Primary Operations:
Cold Forming, Automatic Screw Machining, Welding

Secondary Operations:
Threading, Drilling, Tapping, Milling, Grinding, Bending, Broaching, Induction Heat, Flattening, & Assembly
