The blank sheet is driven into the die by high pressure water on one side of the sheet forming the desired shape.
Hydroforming metal sheet.
It is a self contained system needing only electricity and air.
Hydroforming another area of specialty at hi craft metal products is another form of deep drawing used to form more complex shapes in hydroforming a metal blank is first placed on a ring.
Practically all sheet metals capable of being cold formed carbon steel aluminum stainless steel copper brass precious metals inconel nickel alloys titanium haynes 188 and others can be hydroformed.
Hydroforming is commonly used within the automotive and aerospace industry where complex shapes by hydroforming can be produced stronger lighter and more solid.
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.
Sheet hydroforming uses one die and a sheet of metal.
Tube hydroforming is the expansion of metal tubes into a shape using two die halves which contain the raw tube.
A steel punch then rises through the ring forcing the sheet metal up into a rubber diaphragm backed by a pressure dome filled with hydraulic fluid.
Hydroforming is a quick efficient and reasonably priced metal forming technique that produces structurally strong components with minimum material wastage.
Hydroforming is used to replace the older process of stamping two.
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.
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.
Material thickness from 010 to 500 can be formed.
Sheet hydroforming is a metal forming process that uses pressurized hydraulic fluid in a flexible diaphragm to shape sheet metal against a single tool.
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.
Manufacturing and assembly for the aerospace industry.
