Rubber-die forming was first commercially offered early in the century, under the name of the "Guerin Process". Its niche was established primarily in the aircraft industry. The basic idea of the process was to use rubber to form thin-gage aluminum, shallow flanged an ribbed parts on single die tools. 2, record 1, English, - Guerin%20process
