Therefore the material thin out is minimal usually less than 10.
Hydroforming sheet metal forming.
Irregularly contoured shapes are easily formed using the hydro form process because matching dies are not required.
For more than 40 years hydroform usa has led the way in all sheet metal applications by employing lean practices to manage large build packages including stretch forming brake and roll forming hydro forming cnc machining and chem paint.
The blank sheet is driven into the die by high pressure water on one side of the sheet forming the desired shape.
While metal stamping has been the conventional method of choice for metal forming there is little doubt today that hydroforming is the definitive future of metal forming.
Typical materials fabricated in sheet metal hydroforming include steel aluminum brass copper titanium and high temperature alloys.
Hydroforming flows the metal rather than stretching it.
Hydroforming is a cost effective way of shaping ductile metals such as aluminium brass low alloy steel and stainless steel into lightweight structurally stiff and strong pieces.
Tube hydroforming is the expansion of metal tubes into a shape using two die halves which contain the raw tube.
Hydroforming is a way of shaping metals such as aluminium low alloy steel brass and stainless steel into structurally solid and strong light weighted pieces.
Manufacturing and assembly for the aerospace industry.
We provide hydroforming solutions that quite literally stamp out all the drawbacks associated with the metal stamping process.
Sheet hydroforming uses one die and a sheet of metal.
Versatility in forming complex shapes contours.
This video shows how.
Hydroforming is a great way to form bends cones and other odd shapes using just water pressure from an ordinary garden pressure washer.
The process can create a wide range of complex geometric shapes from a variety of materials including aluminum steel stainless titanium niobium inconel copper composites and more.
One of the largest applications of hydroforming is the automotive industry which makes use of the complex shapes made possible by hydroforming to produce stronger lighter and more rigid unibody structures for.
Minimal material thin out.
Hydroforming is used to replace the older process of stamping two.
