Nedschroef Machinery has opened Nedform Academy to provide training for cold heading technology.

The academy is based at Herentals, Belgium, where three state-of-the-art multi-station Nedform cold heading machines are available for practical instruction. 

Training courses include a three-day “Cold Metal Forming From Theory to Practice” seminar; operator machine training course; and “From Wire to Fastener” for new fastener manufacturers. 

“Manufacturers of metal fasteners and parts are increasingly being asked to manufacture products with a complex geometry,” according to Nedschroef. “Often these products will still be turned on a lathe, but high volumes mean that cold forming is an attractive alternative.”

Cold forming requires knowledge of basic materials, tools and machine operations for production on multi-station cold forming machines. That knowledge “is what the Nedform Acadmey is all about.”

Cold forming technology allows high speed production with a minimum of waste, offering an alternative to lathe-turning, milling, grinding, drilling and welding, especially in high volume parts.

Training is available in English and German languages.
