Overview
Five Decades Of Technology Leadership
Exotic Metals Forming Company LLC is a leader in state-of-the-art, high-temperature, high-strength sheet metal designs and fabrications for the aerospace industry. For over 40 years our commitment to be constantly in the forefront of innovative forming processes has established our company as one of the preferred suppliers of complex sheet metal assemblies. We have identified and filled a vital need: a cost-effective source for the most technically challenging sheet metal fabrications and a history of delivery and quality execution second to none.
Historically, the foundation of our success has been predicated on identifying sheet metal applications utilizing our unique axial-load bulge forming process. This technology has been applied to forming high-temperature, high-strength alloys to unusual geometric configurations while maintaining close dimensional tolerances and uniform wall thicknesses, and minimizing the number of required assembly welds.
Certainly this foundation still holds true today, yet Exotic has evolved into a far more comprehensive, fully integrated company. The high sophistication level of our manufacturing processes has been augmented with equally advanced business and engineering capabilities. The result is a company capable of performing and integrating in-house all the required tasks to take a project from conception through design, fabrication, testing, and system integration. And best of all, this is accomplished with the cost structure, flexibility, innovation, and responsiveness of a small, entrepreneurial company.
However, this wide array of technologies is not the sole reason for our company's success. The continuing evolution of the Exotic culture is equally important. Each individual takes pride in maintaining the high standards of workmanship demanded by our customers. The ability to perform more than others think is possible and care more than others think is wise is embedded in our people. The principles of lean manufacturing have their roots in our culture and each day we nurture these roots to ensure they expand and grow. In the end, our goal is to be recognized by our customers as the best and provide the highest value to them.
