WHAT IS SHEAR FORMING?
Shear forming is a rotary metal forming process for conical parts, where a blank is formed over a mandrel using controlled pressure. The geometry is shaped while the thickness is reduced according to the forming strategy, delivering repeatable cones with an excellent surface finish.
Why choose shear forming?
THICKNESS CONTROL
Controlled thickness reduction to achieve the target cone profile consistently
SURFACE FINISH
Excellent surface finish on conical parts without a complex manufacturing route
DIRECT PROCESS
A direct path to final geometry, often reducing tooling burden for variants

IS SHEAR FORMING RIGHT FOR YOU?
For you if
– Your part is conical and rotationally symmetric
– Thickness control and surface finish are key requirements
– You want a direct route to clean conical geometry
Not the best if
– The part is asymmetric or includes undercuts
– The design relies on complex lateral features as primary requirements
– The cone angle is limited to 15º
Quick design check
– Prefer smooth transitions and avoid sharp steps
– Define critical dimensions and tolerance zones upfront
– Consider trimming/finishing as part of the process
– Share any surface finish targets early
