Aerospace Cutting Tool Limited have developed a new Superplastic Forming/Diffusion Bonding (SPF/DB) machine construction that offers a cost-effective, affordable solution with the added advantage of increased process flexibility within a single unit. The new concept utilises all-electric actuators, eliminating the risk and costs associated with conventional, servo-controlled hydraulic systems used on current equipment.This will make the process of SPF/DB more affordable for future manufacturers by reducing manufacturing costs of the equipment by up to 50%, whilst reducing hydraulic energy costs by up to 85%. This new concept provides new opportunities for manufacturers' within many sectors including aerospace, automotive, rail and medical through increased process availability leading to a supply chain expansion.

航空剪切工具有限公司开发了一种新的超塑性形成/扩散键合（SPF/db）机器构建，该构造提供了一种具有成本效益，负担得起的解决方案，具有增加单个单元中过程灵活性的额外优势。这个新概念利用了全电动执行器，消除了与当前设备上使用的常规，伺服控制的液压系统相关的风险和成本。这将使SPF/db的过程通过将设备的制造成本降低高达50％，而降低氢能能源成本，而降低了85％。这一新概念通过增加流程可用性，导致供应链扩展，为许多领域的制造商提供新的机会。
