Swaging covers the cold-forming or rotary reduction of metallic tubes, rods, and wire to achieve precise dimensional profiles, including tapered ends, reduced-diameter terminations, and swaged cable assemblies used in flight-control and structural applications, employing rotary swaging machines, mandrel-assisted tube swaging, and radial forging principles to work materials such as titanium alloys, stainless steel, and high-strength aluminium.
