What is flow forming?

Flow forming is a chipless metal forming process for manufacturing seamless, cold-worked tubulars.

Through the process of plastic deformation, three rollers apply a compressive force to the outside of the tubular over an inner mandrel, forcing the alloy beyond its yield point. As the outside diameter reduces, the material flows, elongating the metal tubular until the specified wall thickness and length are achieved.
