The process

High force and fine control on special materials.

Forming for the defense sector imposes strict constraints: high-yield-strength steels, ballistic alloys and substantial thicknesses that demand high tonnage without sacrificing precision. Insufficient force fails to complete the deformation; imprecise control introduces cracks, springback and thickness inconsistencies that are unacceptable in a protective or structural component.

Durastrong presses manage programmable speed and pressure profiles throughout the entire stroke, with a dedicated hydraulic cushion and closed-loop control. In this way the material is deformed progressively and repeatably, ensuring metallurgical integrity, consistent tolerances and full traceability of every cycle — in full compliance with project confidentiality.
