Spring marks the start of installing perforated metal architectural panels for many commercial building projects. Planks that were manufactured throughout the winter months begin shipping to job sites, ready for the next step.
Electric vehicles are transforming the automotive industry — and with that transformation comes new engineering challenges, including thermal management. From regulating heat in battery and charging components, to all the tech and power electronics crammed in, perforated metal solutions are becoming increasingly important for EV thermal management.
In appliance design, small decisions can significantly impact performance. One of the most overlooked — yet critical — factors is the selection of the perforated pattern.
Modern building façades are no longer just about enclosing a structure — they're about expression, efficiency, and performance. Architects and glaziers are constantly searching for ways to blend transparency, texture, and thermal control.
After years of anticipation, four newly rebuilt CTA Red Line stations officially reopened on July 20, 2025. The Berwyn, Bryn Mawr, Argyle, and Lawrence stops are now fully ADA-accessible and designed with a modern transit experience in mind. We at Accurate Perforating are proud to have supplied custom perforated metal elements for each of these new stations as part of the CTA's $2.1 billion Red & Purple Modernization (RPM) Phase One project.

Bitcoin mining has gained immense popularity in recent years due to the increasing interest in cryptocurrencies. This term was first used in 2009 when hobbyists performed bitcoin mining using their personal computers. Over the years, Bitcoin mining has evolved into an institutionalized operation involving mining pools and application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC). Today, it is an energy-intensive process, demanding high-performance computing power to validate transactions and secure the blockchain network.
