Hydroforming - Page 9
Successful tube hydroforming: Watching parameters, accurately simulating the process yield good results
- By Suwat Jirathearanat and Taylan Altan, Ph.D.
- Jun 15, 2001
- Article
A typical tube hydroforming system is shown in Figure 1. Within this system, a host of factors must be taken into account, from starting tube geometry and material properties to the quality of the final part (such as thickness distribution and dimensional accuracy).

The basic elements of tubular hydroforming
- By Mustafa Ahmetoglu
- Mar 5, 2001
- Article
Many factors come into play when attempting to execute a production hydroforming operation, among them material selection, friction and lubricants, tube bending and preforming, and equipment. Many companies in the automotive sector are experiencing great success with the process, which can reduce weight, overall costs, and the number of parts per vehicle.
Pressure-sequence and high-pressure hydroforming: Knowing the processes can mean boosting profits
- By Gary Morphy
- Feb 19, 2001
- Article
Pressure-sequence hydroforming can form complex parts as well as forming most ductile metals, including high-strength, low-alloy, and stainless steels with sharper corners, thick-walled tube, and other difficult features.
Effective simulation of hydroforming: Current capabilities and requirements for the future
- By Reimund Neugebauer
- Feb 19, 2001
- Article
Simulation is used in the hydroforming process to replace the experimental investigation and tests required in a real tryout process.
