About Triform Sheet Hydroforming

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Triform, a leader in precision forming equipment, leverages nearly 50 years of engineering and manufacturing experience across various industries. Their machines are particularly beneficial in sectors like aerospace, defense, automotive, medical, and energy, where low-volume, high-mix production is prevalent.
Innovative Solutions
Triform was launched in 2008 to address the scarcity of reliable sheet hydroforming equipment. They offer a comprehensive range of products, including sheet hydroforming presses, stretch formers, and ring expanders, providing complete turn-key forming facilities.
Advanced Control Systems
Triform presses feature powerful, intuitive controls that allow precise adjustments and recipe storage for up to 30 steps per cycle. This flexibility accelerates new part development and ensures consistent quality.
Proprietary Diaphragm Technology
Triform's diaphragms, made from durable neoprene and urethane, significantly reduce downtime associated with diaphragm changes, contrasting with competitors' longer replacement times.
Sheet Hydroforming Processes
Triform offers 'fluid cell' and 'deep draw' configurations, allowing for versatile forming capabilities. These processes reduce tooling costs and improve efficiency by enabling near-net-shape part production in a single cycle.
Efficiency and Cost Reduction
The use of non-mated tooling and the ability to form multiple parts in a single cycle enhance efficiency, making Triform presses ideal for low-volume, high-mix environments.
Quality Assurance
Triform ensures high-quality manufacturing through rigorous engineering processes, including Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for structural integrity and comprehensive testing before shipment.
Service and Support
Triform offers extensive post-installation services, including preventive maintenance, system upgrades, and remote support through their PressLink module, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
Customer Testimonials
Customers from various industries praise Triform for their innovative solutions, efficiency, and exceptional support, highlighting significant improvements in production processes and part quality.

About Triform Sheet Hydroforming-2

An Evolution in Sheet Hydroforming Experience Matters Breathing New Life into Old Technology Prior to Triform's launch in 2008, sourcing reliable sheet hydroforming equipment was a challenge. New machinery was extremely scarce, and prices reflected the lack of competition. Used equipment was 50+ years old and presented countless hazards. Beckwood developed the Triform line of sheet hydroforming presses, stretch formers, ring expanders, and joggle presses in direct response to this unmet need in the marketplace. With such an extensive product line, we provide complete turn-key forming facilities,...

About Triform Sheet Hydroforming-3

Why Sheet Hydroforming? Two Processes, Infinite Possibilities Triform offers sheet hydroforming presses in both ‘fluid cell’ and ‘deep draw’ configurations. During the fluid cell process, blank sheet material is placed on a single, unmated tool resting unsecured on the working surface. A pressurized diaphragm extends over the tool and blank, exerting equal pressure on every square inch of the part’s surface. Even application of pressure offers net shape part production – minimizing wrinkles, improving part definition, and reducing hand finishing. Sample Fluid Cell Parts Deep-Draw sheet hydroforming...

About Triform Sheet Hydroforming-6

“We’re running whatever we can fit inside our Triform press. We typically produce 10-30 parts per setup, then change tooling. We might change tools 15 times or more per shift. Tool changes in the Triform literally take seconds. Conversely, changing tools on our larger hydroforming presses can take 30 minutes or more.” “The Triform team is very supportive. Their Sales, Application, and Engineering teams are very helpful to a new-entry company in the aerospace industry. We ultimately chose Triform because of their total solution.” James Priest Piper Aircraft Victor Chung Jinpao Precision Industry...
