The LEIFELD ST 560 H 3100 is designed for heavy-duty forming of rotationally symmetrical hollow bodies with constant or varying wall thickness by flow forming via cylindrical, conical or embossed mandrel contours. Close tolerances and highest repeatability can be reached. The machine is applicable for forming processes like forward flow forming, reverse flow forming and shear forming. A wide range of workpieces can be manufactured on this machine from most different materials, unmachined parts or preforms.
