Rhodes Interform's metal forming range covers the full spectrum of press technology, from superplastic forming and diffusion bonding through to hot forging, hydraulic and mechanical presses, minting equipment, and mechanical shears. It's a genuinely broad offering, and the depth shows in the detail.
The standout is their SPF/DB capability, built on fifty years of experience and now claimed as the world's most advanced superplastic forming facility. These presses run at temperatures up to 1,000°C, span capacities from 50 to 3,000 tonnes, and produce components that are lighter, stronger, and more structurally integrated than conventional methods allow, with typical savings of 30% on cost and 20% on weight.
Hydraulic presses scale even further, up to 10,000 tonnes, serving aerospace, automotive, textiles, composites, and natural fibre baling. Mechanical presses handle high-speed blanking and piercing with precision tool alignment, while the minting range forms coins and medals in gold, silver, and platinum with multi-strike accuracy.
There's also strong support for legacy machinery, with continued servicing and spare parts for older Rhodes brands and other heritage presses, helping customers extend asset life rather than replace it outright.
Altogether, it reads as a manufacturer built for precision, longevity, and serious engineering credentials.
