The QIH 200 URC ® from Quintus Technologies.
Quintus Technologies specialises in the design, manufacture, installation and support of high-pressure systems for sheetmetal forming and densification of advanced materials and critical industrial components. It produces fluid cell presses for sheet hydroforming and similar sheet metal forming applications. Its Flexform press process requires only one rigid tool half; the other tool half is a flexible rubber diaphragm under uniform hydrostatic pressure.
It has also developed High-Pressure Warm Forming( HPWF) that combines high pressure with a moderately elevated temperature for more rapid and efficient fabrication of titanium parts. It offers hot, warm and cold isostatic presses. Headquartered in Västerås, Sweden, it is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Kobe Steel. In 2024, it introduced the QIF 600L High Pressure Processing( HPP) system, with a 600-litre cycle capacity, and a new QIH 200 URC ® large-format Hot Isostatic Press.
