What is Hydroforming?

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 […]

The Draw Ratio

Clarifying Elements to the Deep Draw Design Process – The Draw Ratio  When it comes to tool design, the most important formula is The Draw Ratio, also known as Limiting Draw Ratio (LDR). The formula is: LDR = D / d D = blank diameter d = cup ID or punch diameter This ratio shows

What is the Difference between Deep Drawing and Hydroforming?

What are the differences of Deep Drawing and Hydroforming?   Hydroforming is a specialized Deep Drawing process also known as Sheet Hydroforming. Sheet hydroforming allows various materials to become complex and structurally sound parts. It allows for asymmetrical or irregular shaped geometries, while conventional Deep Drawn parts are symmetrical and uniform throughout the entire shape.
