Challenging cost reduction through shipping conversion and material savings! This is a technology invented in Japan.
"Bulge forming" is a hollow forming process for metal pipes in which a pipe set in a mold is filled with ultra-high-pressure liquid while compressing both ends of the pipe axially, allowing it to be shaped all at once into the design carved into the mold. It is also known as hydroforming and is a plastic processing method using pipes made from carbon steel, stainless steel (SUS), aluminum, copper, brass, and various alloys. This method contributes to reducing environmental impact and product costs through material savings. We can accommodate custom-made products according to your design and development concepts, so please feel free to consult with us. 【Benefits】 ○ Lightweight and thin-walled ○ Reduction in the number of parts ○ Transition in materials and methods ○ Achievement of cost reduction For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

Company information
Nikko Industry Co., Ltd. specializes in hydraulic bulge forming (hydroforming) using materials such as metal pipes and plates as its core technology, enabling the shaping of three-dimensional forms that are difficult to achieve with traditional casting and pressing techniques. Our commitment to bulge processing began with the use of a patent invented by the Industrial Technology Institute in 1963, and we have felt a growing demand for further application development due to the remarkable advancements of this method in the recent automotive industry in Europe and the United States. Leveraging our extensive experience and rich track record, we utilize our uniquely developed plastic processing technologies for various pipes, both in hard and soft aspects, and by adopting bulge forming that leads to a shift in thinking, we propose possibilities for improved safety and quality, weight reduction, and cost reduction through significant labor savings to a wide range of users. We are committed to making efforts towards realizing product development that meets your expectations.
