An integrated method for manufacturing a high-temperature resistant thin-walled component by preforming by laying a metal foil strip. The integrated manufacturing method includes: designing a preform, preparing a support die, determining a thickness of a foil strip, determining a width of the foil strip, developing a laying process, laying an A foil strip and a B foil strip, obtaining an AB laminated preform, bulging the preform, performing a reactive synthesis and a densification process of a bulged component, and performing a subsequent treatment of the thin-walled component. Various embodiments obtain an integral thin-walled preform with a complex structure, a uniform wall thickness and a shape close to the final part by continuously laying a metal foil strip with an appropriate width.

Some embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a tubular member including a central axis, a first end, a second end opposite the first end, an upset region between and axially spaced from the first end and the second end, and a first outer diameter axially spaced midway between the first end and the upset region. The upset region includes a second diameter which is larger than the first diameter, does not include a weld joint, and includes redistributed material from the tubular member.

A method of manufacturing an aerosol generation system heater element is described. The aerosol generation system heater element comprising a seamless hollow tube, and the method comprises deforming a wall of a hollow tube to form the seamless hollow tube, the seamless hollow tube having a deformed wall, wherein the deformed wall of the seamless hollow tube is thinner than the wall of the hollow tube.

A system for manufacturing a tubular member includes a mandrel configured to be inserted within a throughbore of the tubular member to engage with an inner diameter of the throughbore. In addition, the system includes a die assembly comprising a cavity. The die assembly is configured to be disposed about an outer surface of the tubular member such that a central portion of the tubular member is aligned with the cavity. Further, the system includes a ram configured to apply a load to the tubular member along a central axis of the tubular member to expand the central portion of the outer surface of the tubular member into the cavity to form an upset region along the tubular member.

Disclosed is a method for forming a tube with high internal pressure and low external pressure. The method comprises: putting a tube to be formed into a cavity, such that a bulging area (15) is formed between the tube to be formed and an inner wall of the cavity; continuously injecting a low-pressure fluid into the bulging area, and then injecting a high-pressure fluid into the interior of the tube to be formed, the high-pressure fluid creating a pressure on an outer wall of the tube to be formed such that the tube to be formed starts to expand to the bulging area; stopping the supply of the low-pressure fluid when the tube is bulged to conform to the inner wall of the cavity; and taking the formed tube out to complete a working cycle. Further disclosed is a forming machine for forming a tube according to the above method. According to the machine for forming a tube with high internal pressure and low external pressure, a mold body (1) is provided with a first through hole (13) and a second through hole (14) for circulating a low-pressure fluid into and out of a bulging area, so as to create a certain pressure P1 on the tube and ensure uniform bulging of the entire tube, thereby achieving a better forming effect.
