Tube End Forming Process

Depending on the industry and use, there are different types of end forming you can use for tubes. The tube end-forming process is usually used for a connection to other tubes, hoses, or other objects.

There are different types of tube end forming. Types such as expanding, reducers, ram forming, and rotary spinning to name a few. The expanding option expands a tube by the use of segmented fingers and a tapered mandrel inside the tube that will increase the diameter.

The reducing process actually reduces the size of the tube by using segmented tooling. Ram forming uses a ram and vice type action to make the plug expand and ring reduction. With rotary spinning, it will create open-end flares by using a rotating flare head that is moved by a hydraulic ram.
