Elastoforming - Process
|

|
Approach:
The very rigid elastomer pad firmly tightens the blank on
the tool |
| |
|
|

|
Half Penatration:
The peressure concentrates at the die periphery and at shape
features (Jogglings, corners, etc...). |
| |
|
|

|
Full Penatration:
The volume is closed and filled with the pad, the pressure
uniforms over the die uniforms. |
| |
|
|

|
Pressure Raise:
The pressure raises uniformly all over the surface inducing
conformation to the tool. |
