| COMPONENT FORMING TYPE |
DESCRIPTION |
| Bending |
Bending tubing into intricate parts, tight radius, simple to complex |
| Flaring |
Extending the end of a tube to allow a tight fit of another part, symmetric and non-symmetric |
| Beading, Bulging, Roll Forming |
Similar to Flaring but done somewhere other than the end of the tube or part |
| Swaging |
Controlled drawing of the tube to a smaller OD typically at the end of the tube or part so that a tight fit into another component can be achieved |
| Punching |
Shaped dies used to create a variety of shapes in a component |
