Quick Plastic Forming (QPF) is a hot blowforming technology for the production of aluminum closure panels for automotive applications. It includes an optimized tool material/coating/lubricant system in conjunction with specialized cooling fixtures to produce dimensionally correct panels directly out of the forming cell. In QPF, a heated aluminum sheet is subjected to high-pressure air that makes it conform to the shape of a hot tool that is created directly from design data. Simpler, one-sided tooling also reduces development time and aids in shortening the vehicle development process.
