A system for manufacturing hollow tubular jewellery comprises a die and core assembly for extruding a hollow metallic tube, wherein a core is positioned within a die of the die and core assembly to define three-dimensional surfaces or curved surfaces of a hollow metallic tube. A mandrel is provided for bending the hollow metallic tube, wherein the mandrel is fixed proximal from the die and core assembly. A laser source is provided, which is configured to emit a laser beam to form perforations on the hollow metallic tube. The system includes a fixture which is adapted to hold the hollow metallic tube. The fixture is configured to rotate and tilt to adjustably position a three-dimensional surface or curved surface of the hollow metallic tube perpendicular to the laser beam for forming perforations.

A device and method for designing lightweight, strong, material efficient, extruded and pultruded profiles, profile segments and surfaces produced in profile production with rotating dies creating superior resistance to compression, bending and buckling, higher energy absorption and right strength in the right place, by: varying the thickness along and across the direction of extrusion, making reinforcing patterns varying the profile thickness, and in some cases varying angles and patterns which increases the profile segments/surface resistance against compression, bending and buckling relative to the amount of material used and resulting in the manufacturing of optimized beams and surfaces that have superior properties in terms of strength/weight, stiffness/weight ratio, mechanical energy absorption/weight unit, deformation and natural frequency, thermal transfer capacity, the breaking of the laminar flow, increased/optimized surface for chemical and/or electrochemical reaction etc.

Method for the producing of an extruded frame element with battery pack profile for use in a bicycle frame comprising a plurality of frame elements, where the frame elements are interconnected and constitute a structure with such great rigidity that the bicycle frame under ordinary loading does not change its geometrical shape, wherein the at least one frame element is extruded with variable material thicknesses in a given cross sectional profile, and a recess is made in the at least one extruded frame element, as well as a bicycle frame comprising such a frame element, wherein a stable bicycle frame with sufficient strength is achieved, and wherein the bicycle frame becomes as discreet as possible.

A part of a plate member is machined to remove material therefrom so as to obtain an intermediate product having a thickness difference. Then, the intermediate product is bent and both edges thereof are joined to obtain a cylindrical body. Further, a first heat treatment of heating the cylindrical body is performed. Then, through holes penetrating from the outside to the inside of the peripheral wall of the cylindrical body are formed. Pipe parts are joined to the tubular body thus obtained to form a tubular member. This tubular member is subjected to a second heat treatment.

A process for forming extruded products using a device having a scroll face configured to apply a rotational shearing force and an axial extrusion force to the same preselected location on material wherein a combination of the rotational shearing force and the axial extrusion force upon the same location cause a portion of the material to plasticize, flow and recombine in desired configurations. This process provides for a significant number of advantages and industrial applications, including but not limited to extruding tubes used for vehicle components with 50 to 100 percent greater ductility and energy absorption over conventional extrusion technologies, while dramatically reducing manufacturing costs.

An extrusion press including a ram having a ram body configured for movement along a ram axis, and a compaction container defining a compaction compartment and having a compaction container axis. The compaction container is rotatable between a first orientation wherein the compaction container axis is not aligned with the ram axis and a second orientation wherein the compaction container axis is aligned with the ram axis such that the ram body is movable into the compaction compartment.

A separating device cuts an extruded pipe to length. The separating device has a separator that is rotatably mounted and rotates about an extrusion axis. Cutting tools are arranged on the separator and move in accordance with received energy. A rotating receiver is in the separator. An electromechanical drive is configured to move a carrier that supports a cutting tool. The electromechanical drive and the carrier are on the rotating receiver. An energy conductor is connected to a moving part of the rotating receiver, the energy conductor being coupled to an energy supplier arranged on the rotating receiver. The energy and control commands are transmitted to the electromechanical drive via the energy conductor and the energy supplier. The electromechanical drive, the carrier, or the cutting tool yield to a force counter to a separating force that is greater than a required separating force for cutting the extruded pipe.
