FluidForming is a modern reinvention of hydroforming. Our Six Sigma metal forming technology and low-maintenance FormBalancer machines deliver unprecedented levels of quality, accuracy, repeatability, value, and product performance. Our process is exceptionally cost-effective and is ideal for short production runs (up to 100,000 parts per year) and rapid prototyping. FluidForming is a better, faster, and smarter approach to hydroforming. Our technology enables innovative product design and the ability to economically produce complex parts that could not previously be formed from metal. FluidForming also enables the use of lightweight metals and alloys where heavy, inaccurate castings have traditionally been used. Key Benefits and Features of FluidForming:*60,000 psi forming pressure (vs. 10-15,000 psi for traditional bladder hydroforming)*Forming fluid is recycled tap water*Bladder-free, hydraulic oil-free*99.996% first-pass yield rates (Six Sigma)*Lower overall cost-to-market*Dramatic reduction in product time-to-market *Reduction in capital investments and total cost of ownership*Lower tooling and die costs (compatible with 3D printed tooling)*Rapid, affordable, and precise prototyping*Design and prototyping flexibility*Compatible with textured, pre-finished, pre-painted, and pre-polished materials*Eliminates parts cross-contamination*Minimal post-production fixturing*Product branding can be incorporated into part designFluidForming enables innovation.
