Welcome to Crawford Manufacturing
Slide forming machines—also known as multi-slide or four-slide machines—have been a staple of U.S. manufacturing for over a century. While they may not be as widely recognized as progressive stamping or CNC forming machines, they offer unique advantages that make them ideal for many precision applications.
So why does Crawford Manufacturing continue to rely on this time-tested technology?
The accompanying video explains how slide forming delivers exceptional speed, versatility, and cost efficiency for complex engineered components.
At Crawford Manufacturing, we turn ideas into high-performance components with speed, precision, and reliability. Every project begins in our state-of-the-art CAD design suite, ensuring accuracy from the very first step.
Our in-house tooling capabilities—including advanced Wire EDM, EDM hole drilling and CNC machining centers—give us full control over production timelines and quality. That means faster turnaround, fewer delays, and better results.
