We are currently machining internal surfaces in
tubular products. One example is a progressive cavity tubular
pump/hydraulic motor that has a helical shape machined the length
of a 4-inch to 11-inch diameter up to 240 inches long. Another
example is the internal surfaces of heat exchanger tubes used
in the oil and chemical industries. Both of these products need
precise geometry not achievable with casting or any other hot
mechanical forming method.
