How a Hotmatic Makes Parts:
All-automatic: heat up, feed, cut off, form, pierce -- in a single pass.

Fast: up to 200 a minute, right from bars

Precise: each part is just like the last one, perfectly filled, perfectly formed. No flash, no draft, but with the hole. Which means very little machining.

Thrifty: from cheap hot rolled bar stock. Very little waste! Hardly ever more than 10 percent.

Easy on tools: super-short contact times between tools and hot metal plus an effective cooling system add up to high tool lives.

Labor Saving: just one operator for the whole line

Versatile: easy to set up and change over

Excellent Design:
Variety:
Gear parts for cars and motorcycles, brake, clutch and steering parts, bearing races, standard and special nuts, flanges, hubs, plugs, piping components, and fittings.

Hard shapes, tough metals are no problem: Because any metal is easier to move when it's hot. High-carbon steels, alloys, heat treating steels, even bearing steel. The Hotmatic eats them up.

Good and short:
Everything that's short and reasonable symmetrical, has a hole, and has to be high in quality and low in price.

Up to 38 mm in diameter and 160g initial weight on the AMP 20S, up to 64mm in diameter and 700g initial weight on the AMP 30S. Bigger parts on the AMP 50 and AMP 70.

Dependable Workhorses:
A lot of Hotmatics have been running for over 20 years. And quite a few of them non-stop, around the clock.
