A stepped mandrel compensates uneven elastic recovery during hollow body forming, preserving cavity size for easier counterpart insertion.
A stepped mandrel compensates for elastic recovery in hollow body walls, preserving cavity clearance for easier counterpart insertion.
A mandrel-mounted sensor measures position, temperature, pressure, and acceleration inside the tube to improve drawing process control.
Rotating die and mandrel shaping improves filling of internal tooth profiles in tubular hollow bodies while avoiding material compression.
Coordinated die and mandrel motion reduces tubular cross-section under tensile stress, preventing compression and enabling high-speed shaping.
Liquid metal is injected into hollow fibers and drawn at room temperature to create flexible conductive microfibers with controlled thickness and modulus.
Relative die-mandrel rotation improves material flow to form precise internal teeth in tubular hollow bodies while limiting compression.
Automated tube end expansion and indentation improve floating mandrel positioning, reduce manual errors, and support efficient slide drawing.
An interstitially monitored dual-ply bellows conduit detects leaks while absorbing displacement in cryogenic propellant feed lines.
A segmented cold drawing plug uses a tapered portion to expand metal pipes and improve surface finish.
Polygonal cross-section inner tube reduces material mass while maintaining bearing support capability.
