Our technical staff traveled extensively throughout the world to find out from our customers what makes a good spinning quality.

Meyer has learned that there are 2 very common material related problems associated with metal spinning; looper lines and earing:
 

Why choose Meyer?
Looper lines-- are also referred to as "roping" or "smile faces". They appear as parabolic shaped lines after spinning. They look like a smile face. MG-2 is specifically designed to control this defect. In addition, a sample is taken from each production coil and tested for this defect.

Earing-- Earing is also a common defect associated with the spinning process. It appears as bumps (or ears) on the outside rim of the part after spinning. MG-2 is designed to control earing to within 5%.
