Meet the newest contributors to the Federal Group fleet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to technology, we never stand still at The Federal Group. We are constantly evolving and seeking faster, better, smarter solutions for our clients and partners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our commitment to cutting-edge technology, we\u2019ve recently invested in two new machines as well as a new, state-of-the-art investment casting facility to further support the future of metal fabrication. Keep reading to find out what they can do\u2014and what they can do for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CNC Press Brake Bending Machine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In manufacturing, press brakes are used to bend sheet metal. The newest addition to our lineup is incredibly large\u2014in fact, you won\u2019t find a bigger press brake than this machine. Using high-tech Computer Numerical Control machining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"metal<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At 3,000 tons, this guy can bend up to 16 meters of metal\u2014just under our 40-foot shipment capacity! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

High-Speed Swiss Turning Machine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Boasting not only high speeds but high precision and high accuracy, it\u2019s able to perform CNC milling, drilling, tapping, compound angle work, turning, boring, and threading. Plus, it\u2019s outfitted with a feeder to further increase efficiency.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"swiss<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Swiss CNC turning machines can handle small parts with tight tolerances and difficult-to-cut materials. They can machine a wide variety of metals including: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Aluminum:\u00a0<\/strong>Lightweight and corrosion-resistant,<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Brass:<\/strong>\u00a0Often used to make components for use in plumbing, electrical.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Bronze:<\/strong>\u00a0Often used in bearings, bushings, marine applications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Copper:<\/strong>\u00a0Commonly used in electrical and plumbing applications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Stainless steel:<\/strong>\u00a0Often used to make medical and dental equipment as well as in food processing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Steel:<\/strong>\u00a0Typically used in the construction industry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Titanium:\u00a0<\/strong>Impressive strength-to-weight ratio, often used in the medical industry.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    A State-of-the-Art Investment Casting Facility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    we\u2019re able to vastly expand our testing capacity whether we\u2019re working with steel, iron, and non-ferrous alloys.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"investment<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    In addition to providing dimensional tolerances up to 25mm, our new facility allows for increased mechanical testing by including the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Universal testing machine<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Impact testing<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Microstructure examination<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Hardness testing<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Inter-granular corrosion testing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      The new space also expands our non-destructive testing capacity. We can now offer dye penetration testing, magnetic particle testing, radiography, ultrasonic testing, and hydro testing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
