Abstract: A method and a device for manufacturing a part starting from a cushion made of deformable material, in particular for an edge of an element of an aircraft. The device includes a preparation unit to create a cushion with two plates and, between the plates, an internal space with an opening, and a molding unit comprising a mold in which the cushion is positioned, the mold comprising two shells and an imprint corresponding to the shape of the part to be manufactured, the molding unit configured to inject a pressurized fluid into the internal space of the cushion through the opening to deform the cushion such that it matches the imprint and forms the part, the device being capable of manufacturing one-piece parts of various sizes, and in particular parts having complex shapes, in particular non-developable shapes.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a metal container includes a first step of forming a substantially planar four-sided bag using a metal plate; a second step of sandwiching, by first and second parallel plate jigs, one surface and the other surface of the four-sided bag formed in the first step; and a third step of pressurizing an inside of the four-sided bag while maintaining a contact state by the first and second parallel plate jigs with respect to the four-sided bag sandwiched between the first and second parallel plate jigs in the second step, and expanding a volume space in the four-sided bag while increasing a distance between the first and second parallel plate jigs.

Abstract: An apparatus and method configured for manufacturing an aircraft part from formable material. The apparatus may include one or more rigid forming components onto which the formable material is placed and between which non-flange portions of the formable material may be compressed, and at least one inflatable component that, when expanded by inflation, presses flange portions of the formable material against at least one of the rigid forming components. The inflation component(s) may be arranged in any configuration for forming the formable material into C-shaped channels, single L-shaped channels, or opposing Z-shaped channels. Once pressed between the rigid forming components and/or the inflated inflatable components, the formable material may be heated for forming according to the particular formable material used.

Abstract: A hydro-formed body side rail is assembled by a bracket to a front header. The front header is an extruded cross-car structural support that is joined to the body side rail by a framed joint. A gap is defined between the body side outer panel and the hydro-formed side rail relative to a lateral end of a front header. Side impact test loads are applied initially to the body side rail and compress the bracket. Compression of the bracket closes the gap and the impact loads are applied to the cross-car structural support.

Abstract: A production method uses ultrasonic forming but does not leave a bonding face exposed to the exterior in a final product. The production method of a leading edge member of a fan blade comprises the steps of causing superplastic forming by using a combination of a first mold having a flow path for gas and a second mold having a female mold to pressurize a plate member with the gas through the flow path to fit the plate member onto the female mold; bonding a backing with the plate member processed with the superplastic forming; and cutting out a periphery of the plate member to obtain a product shape.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for the simultaneous forming of a plurality of shaped articles from plural sheet metal blanks. First and second sheet metal blanks are arranged between upper and lower forming dies, and a nozzle body having a generally diamond-shaped cross-sectional profile, transverse to an insertion direction, is inserted between the sheet metal blanks. When the forming tool is closed, upper and lower sealing surfaces of the nozzle body press the first and second sheet metal blanks, respectively, against sealing beads that are arranged one each within peripheral areas of the upper and lower forming dies. Opposite side edges of the nozzle body converge one toward the other so as to facilitate forming a seal along each of the side edges of the nozzle body. A pressurized fluid is introduced via the nozzle body for forming the sheet metal blanks within a die cavity.
