Flattening & Surface Improvement Services

Press flattening is a cold-forming process in which metal plates and sheets are flattened by way of a pressing machine. This can bring out-of-flat material into the precise tolerance needed. The result: more precise material that will be easier to fabricate, mill, and cut during your manufacturing processes.

To better serve our customers, we have built out our manufacturing facility with a diverse range of equipment to provide you with the aluminum flattening and stainless steel straightening services you need with a range of hydraulic presses ranging from 25 to 30 tons and 24” to 50” in width.

Need to upgrade the surface of your material? For surface improvement, our technicians can also apply a brush finish on materials to 16 Ra. We provide machine-ready blanks with flattening and surface improvement to a wide range of industries, so request a quote today!
