CUTTING
CUT TO LENGTH / WIDTH
LASER CUTTING
Our laser cutting solutions bring your cut metal to you more efficiently than ever before. Whether you choose our fiber lasers or traditional CO2 lasers, UPM has a variety of laser cutting services to save you time and money. Reduce the need for managing multiple sources for laser cut parts.
PART CUT OFF SOLUTIONS ( CNC EDM WIRE CUT )
VM’s skilled EDM specialists use state-of-the-art Wire EDM machines with interchangeable tooling. Wire EDM makes it easy to separate additively manufactured metal parts from build plates while maintaining geometrical accuracy and ensuring assembly readiness
NEAR NEAT SHAPES
PRECISION COLD SAY CUTTING
Cold saw cutting virtually eliminates the heat affected zones often incurred as part of the plasma cutting process and minimizes labor time and expense. Our cutting process produces square and parallel edges at standard length and width tolerances, flattened and deburred
SAWING
For applications involving nickel, titanium, cobalt, aluminum, alloy steel and stainless steel, the use of metal cutting band saws and cold saws are an excellent choice. These saws are considered less abrasive than other methods, and are capable of cutting solid blocks and panels accurately for clean cuts along the entire material length.
SHEARING
SLITTING
WATER JET CUTTING
A water jet uses a high pressure stream of water combined with a granular additive. As the pressurized mixture passes through a small diameter nozzle, it forms a coherent jet of abrasive/water moving at very high speeds which will erode a narrow line in a stock material.
PROCESSING
BORING
The Boring process is used to enlarge a hole that has been previously drilled out. Also called internal turning, the boring process improves the accuracy the holes’ diameter tolerances
CUSTOM REROLLING
Our precision rerolling process produces rolled strip with extremely tight tolerance. Stainless steel repeatedly passes through our Sendzimir cold reversing mill to achieve measurable gauge reduction. The result is ultra-light, precision rolled strip in thicknesses as low as .0008”
HEAT TREATMENT
MEASURING
LASER GAUGE MEASUREMENT
Laser gauge measurement allows the machine operator to measure specific parameters of coil, sheet or strip and provide detailed material thickness reports. This can be a valuable means to assess critical component measurements of processed material in order to reduce scrap and to ensure the correct material gauge
ULTRASONIC TESTING
Ultrasonic testing uses beams of high-frequency sound waves to detect flaws, measure thickness and evaluate material properties. Very short, high frequency sound waves with center frequencies or pulses are transmitted into materials to test their thickness or detect internal flaws. The frequencies range from 0.1-15 MHz up to 50 MHz.
