HYDROForming
Precision tube hydroforming is an advanced cold-forming process used to manufacture complex tubular components with exceptional dimensional accuracy and repeatability.
Using high-pressure water, a pre-formed tube is expanded within a precision-machined die to create complex geometries while maintaining excellent surface finish and structural integrity.
The process enables intricate shapes to be produced with fewer fabrication stages, making it an ideal solution for demanding engineering applications.
At GoodFabs, tube hydroforming supports the manufacture of precision-engineered components from prototype development through to production, delivering high levels of quality, consistency and performance.
APPLICATIONS
Our hydroforming process enables the manufacture of complex tubular geometries, including collectors, transition sections, cones, tapered sections, formed bends and oval or non-circular profiles.
It is ideally suited to producing intricate primary tubes while maintaining exceptional dimensional accuracy and consistency.
