Overview
Industry SPF Leader
3 years of Serial Production Experience
Expanding current plant capacity to meet increasing customer demand

20. Super Plastic Forming (SPF)
How it Works
Super Plastic Forming is a unique hot forming process
for aluminum sheet material.
Air at high pressure is blown at controlled speeds to form desired shapes & geometries
The material is stretched for up to 1000%
Benefits of SPF
It reduces overall vehicle weight
In some cases it eliminates sub-assemblies
It reduces CAPEX on program launches
