ISO 9001

New coolant channel rework system for W&P twin extruder barrels. We have doubled the flow in these three units from stock flow #'s based on a before & after water test. We are very excited about this totally new system on ring & dam inserts, method of routing coolant around the liner insert. Not to mention the increases in
wear from cooling uniformity throughout the liner. We are also in the middle
of testing a spiral coolant channel incorporated into the liner itself.

EXTRUSION TOOLING

 M.P.I. specializes in extrusion components, we manufacture twin extruder barrels as well as rebuilding existing barrels. We use X-800 bimetal alloy in our barrels the finest wear resistant lining available!.......................................................................................................

* We can work from DXF, DWG, AUTOCAD, CAM ,ETC....

Company Profile Summary

M.P.I. -Metal Processing, Inc. has been in business in the New River Valley since 1986. M.P.I. is the source for specialty extrusion tooling, complex CNC parts, abrasive jet machining, mass and low volume parts, rough blanks, material sourcing as well as prototyping and single part manufacturing.  We are dedicated to providing our customers with the highest quality, innovation, reliability and versatility available. We meet the machining needs of our customers around the state and around the world.





Product Gallery - COMPLEX CNC COMPLEX PARTS, for example:

* COMPLEX MULTI SURFACE
* 4TH AXIS CAPABILITY
* HIGH SPEED MACHINING

COMPLEX- These housings for electrical controls are machined from solid material and are very complex. The multi surfaces you see here were machined, tapped and countersunk on our HAAS high speed milling machines!
4TH AXIS- This is our 4th axis unit "at work" on a military rifle component. This part was designed using AUTOCAD and manufactured with our CAM software.
HIGH SPEED MILLING- Here we have a sample sign surface milled  from .500 thick alum sheet. This part was machined at 7500 rpm and 200 inches per minute!

Product Gallery - QUALITY MACHINING SERVICES for example:

* MILLING AND TURNING CNC
* GENERAL MACHINING
* DESIGN TEAM
* WATER JET CUTTING SERVICE

MILLING AND TURNING-7 CNC milling machines, 3 and 4 axis machining .CNC turning to 15"x 36" -High Speed Machining is our specialty.
GENERAL MACHINING-in addition to our top of the line CNCs we have all the standard\conventional equipment to meet any job shop requirement your company might need. Conventional Turning to 36"x 108"

Weight Capacity to 1000 lbs.

DESIGN TEAM- We designed this flow cavity cone on our CAD system then manufactured the part with very short turn around times.
WATERJET CUTTING- our OMAX 2652A JET MACHINING CENTER can cut virtually any material up to 2 inches thick .Great for prototype work, material blanking, limited production runs and holds tolerance to +-.005 in most materials. Check this machine out at www.mpiwaterjet.com.





Product Gallery - EXTRUSION TOOLING

EXTRUSION PRODUCTS, for example:

* EXTRUDER BARRELS
* COMPONENTS
* TOOLING
* MISCELLANEOUS

 EXTRUDER BARRELS-we specialize in the repair and manufacture of modular ZSK type extruder components.
COMPONENTS- here is an example of a 90 degree intersection of  hard metal lining component with lining material flush at the intersections of the two piece assembly. All surfaces  are CNC  ground.
RISER- here is a  flanged barrel riser  used on a large extruder line .The flange is 1" thick and measures 7" x 12".
MISCELLANEOUS- Here is a sample of a homogenizer plate drilled on our CNC equipment .Material is 1" thick tool steel.

COMPLEX CNC Machining

Using our 3  HAAS CNC vertical machining centers, Proto Trak and Dah-Lih milling centers and our  FRYER CNC turning center we can cut a wide range of materials\part profiles  faster than can be done with conventional methods.  Our products have  high precision and quality appearance. We maintain part accuracy to + or - .0005"in most materials. We can cut almost any 3-dimensional object with our machinery. We have 4th axis capabilities! 

Advantages of our processes and personnel:

* FAST on time parts....
* ACCURATE to the blueprint...
* RELIABLE to meet your delivery schedule...
* VERSATILE to a wide range of capabilities....
* PROCESS ELIMINATION less setup\handling...
* COST EFFECTIVE more parts per machining hour...

Our facility consists of 10,000 sq ft of modern manufacturing floor space at two locations. The main shop is located within the New River Industrial Park  at 6693 Viscoe Road.  The auxiliary shop is within Building # 236 in the Commerce Park at the Radford Army Ammunition Plant. Our facility is climate controlled ,has large and small commercial truck loading docks and is convenient to all industry in the area. Come by for a  visit from 7:00AM TO 5:00PM M- F.

We just finished our expansion/consolidation of our 3 shops into one at our Viscoe Road shop Radford,Va.
We now have all of our machinery, resources under one roof. We have 10,000 sq .feet of modern machine shop manufacturing floor space.
The X-800 tungsten carbide bimetallic twin barrels are our specialty .
We resleeve up to 250 mm W&P twin X-800 oval liners.

We are offering an introductory program for our X-800 barrels for our
customers. We will sell one relined X-800 barrel at whatever price they are
currently paying for a Conforma Clad, CPM or other similarly relined barrel.
Just to prove our products superior wear resistance and get some industry
exposure.
