Not as simple as it looks!
Custom Die Tooling
Medical metal fabrication requires precision fabrication and the highest level of quality. We were challenged by a company with drawings of an oral surgery brace and asked to mass produce the product. With this project, bo-mar needed to overcome a big obstacle, the braces’ detailed bends. Our solution was to create a unique set of tooling to fabricate the reverse bend.
The manufacturing process for this project was extremely elaborate. Because the design of the brace required a reverse bend, the piece could not be made out of sheet metal, and it had to be cut from the waterjet. The braces’ multi-step fabrication process consisted of machining, press brake forming, more machining, laser welding, a passive die process, laser etching, and finally assembly. Although the part looks simple, there are many crucial steps in order to bring this product from paper to completion. Ultimately, we were able to construct the tooling to mass produce the oral surgery braces, making the fabrication process more efficient and cost-effective. We continue to produce these parts for our customer today.
