A Legacy in Aerospace Manufacturing Since 1976 , Beckwood ’ s commitment to
manufacturing in the United States has resulted in machines that are
safe , reliable , and
easy to maintain and support . We leverage over 40 years of engineering and manufacturing experience to produce highquality
aerospace forming equipment for a wide range of applications . Our engineers have extensive experience with aerospace forming applications , relying upon decades of personal experience to help suppliers gain efficiencies and improve productivity .
Diverse Solutions for Specific Challenges With a history deeply rooted in custom hydraulic press manufacturing , Beckwood offers a full line of premium aerospace forming technologies . From
hot forming presses optimized for titanium-forming operations and
compression molding presses vital for composite lightweighting to
sheet hydroforming presses that maximize forming capability and minimize skilled labor , we have the solutions to tackle the unique challenges of the aerospace industry .
Robust Machinery Engineered for Infinite Life Every Beckwood press structure is designed to the
Infinite Life classification using Finite Element Analysis ( FEA ) design software . This computer-aided simulation mirrors realworld manufacturing stresses to ensure the design is robust enough to handle the most taxing applications .
Beckwood-manufactured systems also feature strategic redundancies to maximize up-time , including a technologicallyadvanced
Pre-Preventive Maintenance System ( PPM ) that identifies maintenance needs before unplanned downtime occurs .
Strategic Technologies to Maximize Productivity As aerospace manufacturing technology continually advances , so do production expectations . Beckwood understands the demanding requirements of today ’ s 24-7 production environments which is why our machines are not only capable of meeting today ’ s challenges , but innovative enough to tackle the challenges of tomorrow too .
Safety First The
safety of operators , maintenance workers , and other personnel is of utmost importance in every hydraulic press we engineer . That ’ s why our presses conform to the United States ’ OSHA ( Occupational Safety & Health Association ) requirements . We also have extensive experience adhering to a variety of safety regulations including the ANSI B11.2 Hydraulic Press Safety Standard , CSA Z142 , CE , and others .
Processes & People for Quality Assurance Beckwood maintains tight control over
quality and lead-time due to our 360-degree engineering and manufacturing capabilities . Every order is assigned a dedicated Project Manager whose sole mission is to ensure the project progresses with a unified understanding of success . Teams of structural , hydraulic and electrical engineers collaborate to design the ideal solution while in-house machining , fabrication , assembly , and testing capabilities ensure machines are built to exceed customer expectations .
