Many industries rely on multi-cavity blanking and welding to manufacture large quantities of identical parts at an affordable price. The blanking process involves punching out shaped components (blanks) using the shearing force of hardened or carbide steel tools. Multi-cavity blanking gives manufacturers the ability to produce more parts simultaneously, allowing for greater efficiency. Welding has various specializations, each with unique techniques and applications for joining metals together.
At Ohio Valley Manufacturing, we are firmly committed to providing precision blanking and welding services for customers across diverse industries. We use multi-cavity blanking’s processing speed and repeatable accuracy to complete high-volume fabrication projects, with free-hand and robotic welding to handle the full range of production requirements.
