Low Cost Sheet Metal Tooling Forming Tools
Car Development picked up quickly in the fifties and sixties and particularly with the automotive companies in Europe. Attention was paid to non – standard tooling and prototyping methods for large body components. MCP was already producing a unique metal alloy that, after testing, was to fulfill all the the requirements for producing large press tools in 2-5 days.
Some of the properties and advantages of MCP 137 Alloy are:
– Large automotive press-tools in only 2-5 days
– Dimensionally extremely accurate und no distortion
– No finishing required
– Low processing temperature
– Non Toxic
– 100 % completely re-useable material
