Hydraulic forging is the process in
which the metal is stretched beyond the yield point to form the desired
shape. The forced used in forging must be strong enough to change the
dimensions of the material without breaking it. When material is forms
new shape, it is called the yield point and the point at which it breaks
is called the fracture point.
