An electrohydraulic forming device includes a mold, a tank having a first wall, and a first electrode and second electrode both placed in the tank and adapted to generate an electrical discharge to create at least one pressure wave. The first wall is rotationally symmetric about an axis of revolution, the electrodes have axes of revolution that are coincident with the axis of revolution of the first wall, and the first wall has a concavity oriented towards the mold.

A system and method for hydraulic forming of sheets is provided. A coil is connected to a pulse generator storing electric energy and discharging the electric energy to the coil, creating a first electromagnetic field in the coil. A conductive plate placed on the coil such that the first electromagnetic field causes creating of a second electromagnetic field in the conductive plate, in a direction opposite to the first electromagnetic field, creating a force. A pressure chamber filled with a fluid and placed on the conductive plate. A piston placed inside the pressure chamber to transfer the force to the fluid. A sheet placed on the pressure chamber, the fluid being configured to receive the force from the piston and transfer the force to the sheet. A die placed on the sheet, wherein the force transferred to the sheet from the fluid causes the sheet to take a shape of the die.

The invention is intended to improve a method for explosive forming of a workpiece by means of gas explosion, in which the workpiece is arranged in a intake area of a moulding tool, wherein the intake area is at least partially filled with liquid and the explosion is triggered by ignition of an explosive gas mixture, to the effect that the method is suitable and simplified for mass production. This object is solved by a method for explosive forming of a workpiece by means of gas explosion, in which the workpiece is arranged in a intake area of a moulding tool, wherein the intake area is at least partially filled with liquid and the explosion is triggered by means of ignition of an explosive gas mixture, in which the explosive gas mixture is provided at least partially above the surface of the liquid before the ignition.
