Deep DrawING

Precision Deep Drawing for Complex Metal Components: Shaping Innovation, Delivering Reliability

Industry-Leading Deep & Shallow Draw Manufacturing.

At National Manufacturing, we push deep‑draw boundaries to deliver ultra‑precise metal components for the world’s most demanding applications. Powered by our in‑house 20 to 175 ton presses—and the PrecisionX Group’s 5 to 300 ton multi‑station transfer presses—we form parts from .003 in up to 18 in diameter, with draw depths to 18 in and tolerances as tight as ±.0005 in. High‑speed presses run to 100 parts per minute, while our Tool & Die team designs and maintains proprietary carbide progressive dies for unmatched longevity and repeatability. Whether you need a cup drawn twice its diameter or a complex multi‑geometry shell, we deliver prototype‑to‑production solutions for medical, aerospace & defense, electronics, and industrial markets.

Deep Drawing Aerospace and Defense Parts

Aerospace & Defense Parts

We specialize in deep drawing complex shapes with sharp corners, defined radii, and tight tolerances to meet the rigorous demands of aerospace and defense applications. Our expertise in forming hard-to-draw materials—such as Kovar, Inconel, titanium, and other high-performance alloys—allows us to manufacture lightweight, durable housings and precision components engineered for reliability in mission-critical environments.

Medical Components​

Medical Components​

Our deep draw capabilities enable us to produce highly complex, tight-tolerance components tailored to the rigorous requirements of medical applications. From pacemaker and neurostimulator enclosures to surgical instruments and implantable device housings, we manufacture each component with precision, consistency, and the highest level of quality to support life-saving innovations.

Critical Complex Components

Critical Complex Components

We specialize in deep drawing complex metal components designed for mission-critical applications. Whether it’s sonobuoys, battery sleeves, telecom housings, exhaust ducts, or heat sinks, our advanced deep draw capabilities deliver precise results—even with intricate geometries, sharp corners, and tight tolerances. With diameters from .020” to 18” and draw depths up to 18”, we manufacture high-performance parts that meet the most demanding industry standards.

Max diameter to length ratio, minimum length to diameter ratio.

Precision Forming for Challenging Diameter-to-Length and Length-to-Diameter Ratios

As a PrecisionX Group company, National Manufacturing specializes in deep drawing complex metal components with the precision and versatility required for the most demanding applications. Serving aerospace, defense, medical, and industrial markets, we utilize multi-station transfer presses ranging from 5 to 300 tons to achieve exceptional accuracy and consistency. Our capabilities include drawing diameters from .020” to 18” and depths up to 18”, allowing us to produce intricate geometries and tight tolerances across a wide range of materials and part sizes.

Our capabilities allow us to handle both small, intricate components and larger, more complex pieces, all while maintaining the highest standards of accuracy. Whether working with fine details or larger dimensions, we deliver reliable, high-quality solutions tailored to meet the stringent demands of critical applications.

  • 1/16″ to 18″ (1.6 mm to 457 mm) diameter
  • Lengths up to 18″
  • Material thicknesses .002″ to .250″ (0.05 mm to 6.35 mm)

Precision / Tolerances

  • ± .0005″(0.013 mm)
  • Drawn corner radii as small as .002″ (0.05 mm)
Deep Draw tooling

Tooling

Our in-house Tooling and Die department designs and manufactures all tooling on-site, giving us full control over every critical step of the process. This vertical integration ensures optimal efficiency, precision, and quality while enabling rapid iteration and customization. By managing everything internally, we deliver consistent, high-performance solutions tailored to meet each customer’s unique requirements.
