Process Development for a Superplastic Hot Tube Gas Forming Process of Titanium (Ti-3Al-2.5V) Hollow Profiles

Tube forming technologies based on internal forming pressures, such as hydroforming or hot tube gas forming, are state of the art to manufacture complex closed profile geometries. However, materials with excellent specific strengths and chemical properties, such as titanium alloys, are often challen...
