(Click Image to Enlarge)Stamping of a Brass Housing

The automotive and other industries utilize housing bearings for multiple applications. At G&M Manufacturing our stamping processes are ideal for manufacturing bearings in multiple metals and finish options. The bearing housing highlighted here was designed for use in a rotating assembly in an automotive throttle position sensor. The housing bearing was manufactured from C260 brass with a thickness of .010″. Our 60 ton Bruderer straight side high speed press was utilized for stamping; this advanced high speed manufacturing capability allows us to achieve tolerances of ±.0005″. The finished part features overall dimensions of .6″ diameter and .32″ in height, with nickel plating. Quality was verified through both pin gage and drop indicator inspections. We produce 1,200,000 parts for our customer annually. At G&M Manufacturing customer satisfaction and quality is the key to our success. To learn more about this project, see the table below.
