For 50 years, progressive-die-stamping specialist Trans-Matic Manufacturing Inc. (TMMI) has stayed focused on producing affordable, high-quality parts for its thousands of customers. This approach has definitely proved to be successful—enabling TMMI to grow from a small two-machine shop in 1968, to the first deep-draw metal stamping company in western Michigan. Today, it produces a wide range of components for automotive, HVAC, plumbing, lawn equipment, lighting and power-tool companies in North and South America, and Asia.
TMMI relies on several high-speed transfer presses (5 to 600 tons in capacity) to make deep-drawn stamped metal parts up to 4.5 millimeters thick and 200 millimeters deep. The parts often have complex geometries and configurations, yet require no costly secondary processes.
