Tryout Activities

Tryout capability is the key to a successful program. At Comau, tryout is taken into consideration throughout the life the program; utilization of simulation and /or prototype tools and expert engineering and machining in expansion and press compensation minimizes the need for extensive tryout.

Comau's work force includes a team dedicated to the building and tryout of draw and form dies. Our tryout team has extensive knowledge and experience in deep drawing, forming of high strength material and aluminum forming. With 96 presses available, Comau is uniquely capable of handling all of your die construction and tryout needs.

Our goal is to eliminate home-line tryout. Dies and automated tools built and tried out by Comau cut plant costs by sharply reducing your launch hours.

To guarantee the best process optimization, each plant assures the availability of a large number of try-out presses:
