Hydroforming

Interlaken Technology has been designing and manufacturing custom hydroforming presses for over 15 years. From a 50 Ton hydroforming press for university research to a 2000 Ton production press for manufacturing, ITC’s hydroforming systems fill a variety of needs. Customers choose from one of our standard hydroform systems or ITC can build a custom system for your specific application. ITC presses provide closed loop control of forces, motions and pressures to produce high quality parts. Our exclusive, easy-to-use software allows users to develop complex force, motion and pressure profiles for consistent tube forming applications.

Specifications

The system is comprised of five sub-systems:
● A single-acting, servo-controlled hydraulic press with mode switching during the process.
● Servo-controlled Hydroforming Feed Actuators that are fully integrated.
● A Servo-controlled Pressure Intensifier with pressure control valves. A variety of pressure and flow options are available.
● Interlaken designed tooling with changeable die inserts for differing cavity shapes that can be run with or without end feed.
● A B&R PC/Controller with 3rd generation Intel i7 processor.

Benefits

The Benefits of the Interlaken Hydroform system:
● Built to ITC’s high standards with integrated safety features.
● Industrial PC based system.
● Ethernet/Internet connectivity capability.
● High rate data acquisition.
● Real time graphical interface.
● Mode switching from stroke to pressure feedback for control during test.
● Complete independent control of clamp, feeds, and pressure.
● Highly repeatable process to maintain tight tolerances.

In order to minimize wall thinning, maintain desired radii and avoid blow out, complex monitoring and control of forces and motions are needed. Interlaken’s control of forces and motions easily alternate between various time and event commands. A typical process might require moving actuators in position control, then switching to force feedback for a portion of the cycle then switching back to position to finish the part. The ITC control system easily implements these scenarios.
