Bulge Forming Presses
Industrial Bulge Forming Hydraulic and Servo Presses
Turn complex designs into production-ready parts with unmatched dimensional accuracy and strength.
Macrodyne’s industrial bulge forming presses, which are available in hydraulic and servo configurations, deliver precision forming for complex sheet metal and tubular components using controlled fluid pressure.
Custom-engineered for aerospace, automotive, and other sectors, our presses deliver lightweight, high-strength components with precise form.
What is Bulge Forming?
Bulge forming, or hydroforming, uses internal water pressure to shape sheet metal. Pressure can be applied with low-pressure pumps, high-pressure intensifiers, or by compressing the part. The result is lightweight components with high structural integrity.

Advanced Hydroforming for Complex Parts
Macrodyne’s bulge forming presses can manufacture both sheet and hollow components with complex geometries. In many cases, multiple components can be redesigned as a single piece, reducing or eliminating the need for secondary welding.
Bulge-formed parts can combine multiple components into a single piece, reducing or eliminating secondary welding. Thinner wall sections also mean parts can be lighter without sacrificing strength.
