in recent years, the hydroforming due to reduction in weight and increase in strength of automotive parts has attracted attention of the automotive industry. thus, the knowledge of the process to produce parts with desired quality and accuracy has been growing. one of the effective methods in improving the formability in the hydroforming is known as pulsating hydroforming. however, the reason o...

Hydroforging is a hybrid forming operation whereby a thick tube is formed to a desired geometry by combining forging and hydroforming principles. Through this process hollow structures with high strength-to-weight ratio can be produced for applications in power transmission systems and other structural components that demands high strength-to-weight ratio. In this process, a thick tube is defor...

tube hydroforming (thf) process is used to produce the complex components from the initial cylindrical tubes. in this paper, t- shape component was formed using a tube hydroforming machine and the residual stresses of hydroformed tube was determined by hole drilling method. subsequently, the thickness distribution and residual stresses of final tube were investigated using experimental and fini...

Hydroforming patch technology for damaged screen pipes is designed based on tube hydroforming technology, and the methods determining forming pressure range defects are selected according to process. The model established technical demand parameters pipe repair. From mechanical properties of material digital–analog comparison analysis formability, it found that determiners formability (such as ...

This paper presents a control model of the hydroforming and the dual hydroforming process of a tube. The theoretical part includes calculations to measure the change in tube thickness through the developed process. The hydroforming and the dual hydroforming processes are simulated in the SOLIDSIMULATION software and the static and the dynamic simulations are modeled. The obtained results for th...

Aluminum and magnesium alloys are of materials for decreasing vehicle weight and consequently reducing fuel consumption. However, forming limitations regarding their low formability at room temperature are found when being manufactured by conventional forming processes. For this reason, development of new forming techniques, such as warm tube hydroforming, is needed to overcome such limitations...

Tube Hydroforming (THF) is getting an increasing amount of attention in industry. THF has advantages such as weight reduction, high dimensional accuracy, and high rigidity. However, this forming process requires precise control of internal pressure and axial feeding. Additionally, in most cases prebending processes must be performed on the tubes before the hydroforming process can be carried ou...
