Tube swaging
The swaging operation we use on tubes is a rotary process. For those who don’t know, this is a hammer forming procedure. It is for the reduction of the cross-section of wires, tubes, and solids. What rotary swaging does is create regular forms or circular concentric reductions. The regular forms include squares, octagonal, and hexagonal. This is on both ends of your tube or one of them. It can also be straight through the utensil. In turn, this can make the inside of your tubes a unique shape and keep the exterior circular. In addition, you can decrease or increase your tube’s inner diameter.
What happens with this process is that you insert a die into your tube. From there, it hammers the inner surface in a rapid manner by opening and closing quickly. This generates the desired shape or increase in ID. With our efforts, the die rotates and you end up with a piece of tube that can satisfy your needs.

The benefits
Using tube swaging offers several important benefits. For instance, the cycle times are short. We supply you with your product quickly and efficiently. Moreover, you will have a brilliant smooth, circular finish on the exterior at the end. Furthermore, there is zero material loss and tight tolerances.
Swaging makes use of an impact procedure instead of cutting. This results in the integral strength remaining the same. It adds to the minimum notch effect and heightened wall thickness.
