hydroforming
Hydroforming is a manufacturing process that shapes metal parts using high-pressure hydraulic fluid. The metal sheet or tube is placed inside a custom mold, and fluid is injected to exert even pressure, making the metal conform precisely to the mold's shape. This process allows for complex, lightweight, and strong parts with fewer joints, often used in automotive and aerospace industries. Hydroforming improves design flexibility and material efficiency, resulting in high-quality components with smooth surfaces and intricate designs achieved in a single, efficient step.
