2. Flow-forming modes
The two typical flow-forming operations are classified according to the geometric shapes of the blank and the product:
conical flow-forming, using a flat sheet called a blank, to produce a cone or revolution part with a curvilinear generatrix;
cylindrical flow forming produces thin-walled tubular parts, the blank being a forged, stamped, extruded or machined cup.
2.1 Conical flow-forming
Tapered flow-forming is the most conventional and easiest to implement, and is also the most frequently reported in technical literature
