MuShields hydroforming equipment enables the manufacture of precision sheet metal parts from the following alloys. Hydroforming is a unique process that offers many benefits over traditional sheet metal forming and fabrication. In most applications, only one form tool is needed which pushes a piece of sheet metal into a pressurized rubber bladder. Since the form tool is pushing the sheet metal into the bladder, and there is no need for matched set tooling, there is limited metal-on-metal contact that may create scratches, gouges, or blemishes on the surface of the material. Hydroforming is an attractive manufacturing process due to the minimal tooling cost and limited secondary operations needed post hydroforming. The hydroforming process was developed in the early 1950s. Today, the process is widely used in industries including: Hydroforming as a manufacturing process has been around for the better part of a century. At its inherent core, hydroforming is a practice that is a unique and flexible process streamlining the design and manufacturing functions. The answer is simple. In fact, its built of three words: When youre in need of a competitive advantage, consider what MuShield brings to the table: Secondary Operations (laser trimming, hole cutting, heat treating, etc.) are done in-house to expedite delivery and keep costs down for our ...Read More
