superplastic forming (SPF)
A metal-forming process that uses the extreme extendability of certain metal alloys to form complex parts, in fewer stages and with minimum waste. The process uses precisely controlled rates of strain and temperature to elongate metal without tearing or breaking. The cost can be as little as one-tenth the cost of conventional machining.
