What is Deep Drawing? Deep Draw forming with conventional tool and die technology is the conforming of sheet metal, commonly referred to as a blank, around a plug in either a hydraulic or mechanical press. The edges of the blank are restrained yet allowed to slide by a precise pressure between two tool surfaces; normally in

What is Hydroforming? Hydroforming is a metal forming process where complex and structurally sound parts with tight tolerances that can be made from various metals. A water-based fluid force, oil, gas, or a flexible elastic polymer membrane, is highly pressurized up to 10,000 PSi is applied onto a piece of metal, or blank, to change
