For applications that require a controlled flow of the material, such as deep drawn parts or those with curved geometries which have the potential to wrinkle during the forming process, Triform Deep Draw presses are the ideal solution.
In the computer-controlled Deep Draw process, the downward-acting bladder primarily acts to hold the material during pressurization, as the tool is extended atop a hydraulic punch cylinder. This draws the material into the bladder and allows it to flow as needed.
Both the bladder pressure and punch position are tightly controlled (down to 1% of full scale and +/-0.002" respectively) using the Triform's advanced controls and hydraulics system. Through the multi-level recipe program (up to 30 steps), operators can make fast, accurate adjustments, greatly improving and accelerating the part development process.
Through a simple deactivation of the punch cylinder, a Triform Deep Draw press can quickly transform into a Fluid Cell model. Either configuration results in significantly increased capability and capacity in most facilities (and to a considerable decrease of the need for finishing hammers).
