Quintus Technologies specialises in the design , manufacture , installation and support of high-pressure systems for sheetmetalforming and densification of advanced materials and critical industrial components . It has become a leading producer of fluid cell presses for sheet hydroforming and similar sheet-metalforming applications . Its Flexform press process requires only one rigid tool half ; the other tool half is a flexible rubber diaphragm under uniform hydrostatic pressure . This design approach generates significant tool cost savings and eliminates several forming operations , intermediate heat treatments and operator dependencies .
Quintus Technologies has also developed a new process , High Pressure Warm Forming ( HPWF ), that combines high pressure with a moderately elevated temperature for “ more rapid and cost-effective ” fabrication of titanium parts . A complete HPWF cycle , from heating and loading to forming and unloading , takes less than five minutes , versus several hours for alternative hot-forming processes . Headquartered in Västerås , Sweden , it is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Kobe Steel .
