Swaging Processes
- Start the swaging simulation or switch on the swaging machine.
- Clean and prepare the cylindrical workpiece or tube before the operation.
- Insert the workpiece carefully into the swaging die.
- If required, place the mandrel inside the hollow workpiece for internal shaping.
- Ensure proper alignment of the workpiece with the rotary swaging dies.
- Set the required speed and operating parameters of the swaging machine.
- Allow the dies to rotate and apply radial compressive forces on the workpiece.
- Observe the gradual reduction in diameter or change in profile of the workpiece.
- Stop the machine once the desired shape and dimensions are achieved.
- Remove the swaged component and inspect it for accuracy and surface finish.
