Tooling Tech Group expands Michigan facility to accommodate 2,750-ton press

Tooling Tech Group has announced a 70,000-sq.-ft. expansion of its Macomb, Mich., Majestic Industries’ progressive die and stamping facility to accommodate the installation of a 2,750-ton Eagle press and to provide additional space for its die assembly operations. This equipment expands the company’s capabilities into the transfer die business, offering die design, construction, tryout, and production of larger components with more complex features.

The press has a bed size of 280 by 108 in., 10 to 20 SPM, and a 36-in. stroke. It can handle coils of aluminum or steel in widths up to 72 in., coil weight of 50,000 lbs., and material up to 0.157 in. thick depending on width and tensile strength.

The company also is investing in ancillary press equipment, including a straightener, feeder, 50,000-lb.-capacity coil mandrel for running progressive dies, and a linear transfer system for running transfer tooling.
