Dynamic Flowform has successfully flowformed cradle and recoil tubes for the M777 light-weight 155mm Howitzer guns. This work was performed for the United States Army through the National Center for Excellence in Metalworking Technology (NCEMT). These gun systems are made from titanium 6-Al-4V (grade 5). They will be used by the both the Marine Corps and Army. Initially, the cradle and recoil tubes were produced by extruding a thick-walled tube, measuring each individual extrusion for roundness and straightness, bump-straightening the extrusion, and then machining the extrusion wall thickness to meet the final tube requirements. By flowforming, Dynamic has been able to offer the Army a net-shape cradle and recoil tube which eliminates several manufacturing processes and reduces material waste. The flowforming manufacturing approach Dynamic developed offers the Army substantial cost-savings.

Dynamic Machine Works Inc. is proud to announce the change of our name to Dynamic Flowform Corp.. For the past 32 years, people throughout the metalworking world have referred to us as “Dynamic”, the folks to see for the manufacturing of dimensionally precise components, made from out-of-the ordinary metals.

For the last twenty years, we have built a reputation as the “flowforming people” as we pioneered the precision flowforming technology in dozens of markets. Looking into the future, we want everyone to know who we are and what do.

We are “Dynamic Flowform”.

We remain under the direction of Founder and President, Ven Fonte, and the strong managerial team that he has put together through the years. We continue to manufacture flowformed components in our plant in Billerica, Massachusetts where we have been located for more than 25 years. Precision Flowforming is our mission and, more importantly, our passion. We are continuously pushing it to new metallurgical and dimensional heights.

At Dynamic Flowform, we are eager to share the dynamic process of precision flowforming with you and to discuss how you might benefit from applying this method of metal forming to your projects.
