Hydroforming press HS3-1500
- Press force
- 15,000 kN
- max. forming pressure (HFA)
- 700 MPa
Hydroforming for producing sheet-, tube- and profile-based components with complex geometries from metal and plastic – from prototype to pre-series. Our systems enable reproducible forming processes with the highest dimensional accuracy and material efficiency. Together with industry partners we realize innovative lightweight and structural concepts under real production conditions. Our competencies also include process combinations, e.g. with injection molding or press hardening, as well as temperature-controlled forming with a gaseous working medium.
Various hydroforming systems are available in the test fields at Fraunhofer IWU. Get in touch to learn more about them and to use them in your projects.
