Since 1969 Intran has been a trusted partner in automotive manufacturing. We specialize in automotive parts and more, using advanced processes like controlled atmosphere brazing, end forming, sheet metal stamping, spot welding, tube bending, tube hydroforming, wire forming, to name a few. Let’s break down each capability and show you why Intran is the perfect fit for your production needs – plus, we’ve linked helpful blog posts from our site to dig deeper!
Controlled Atmosphere Brazing – Strong Joints, Made Simple
Controlled atmosphere brazing (CAB) joins metal parts using heat and a special furnace that keeps oxygen out. Intran uses CAB to make strong, clean joints for automotive fuel systems and other components where leaks must be avoided. It’s a process that’s compatible with aluminum, steel, and other metals, keeping your products tough and reliable. Check out the articles below for more info on CAB:

End Forming For Custom Tube Ends
End forming shapes the ends of metal tubes to fit your exact needs, such as making them flared or closed. At Intran we offer tube end forming for tubes using high-tech machines and skilled workers to create custom ends for parts like exhausts or fluid lines. It’s a fast, affordable way to get parts that match your designs perfectly. Read more here:
Sheet Metal Stamping: Quick Parts Production
Sheet metal stamping turns flat metal sheets into shapes like car panels or brackets. Intran’s metal stamping process is super fast because it’s “cold forming” – no waiting for metal to cool. We can punch holes and make complex shapes in one go, making it a top pick for big batches of auto parts or appliances. Read more about it here:

Spot Welding Creates Metal Bonds – Fast
Spot welding uses electric heat to fuse metal pieces together, such as car bodies. Intran’s experts employ spot welding to make strong, neat welds in seconds, perfect for assembling parts that need to hold up under stress. It’s a popular choice in the auto world because it’s quick and doesn’t dramatically impact the look of the metal. Find out more about spot welding below:

Tube Bending For Strong, Flexible Shapes
Tube bending curves metal tubes into circular or angled shapes without compromising their strength. Intran uses CNC machines to bend tubes for car frame members, fuel lines, and other tubular components, keeping them strong and precise. It’s a perfect process for custom jobs where straight tubes just won’t cut it:

Tube Hydroforming: Complex Parts, Made Easy
Tube hydroforming uses high-pressure fluid to shape tubes into complex designs, like bellows for exhausts. Intran’s hydroforming process makes strong, seamless tubes with consistent wall thickness that can handle vibrations or pressure. We also incorporate bellows in many of our hydroformed tubes for even more structural integrity. Hydroforming is a great way to tackle tricky shapes that other methods can’t.
