Abstract: An apparatus for metal forming under the pressure of pulsed magnet field comprises coils which are connected in series by means of flat buses, the extreme coils being provided with flat outputs arranged in parallel to one another along the coils; the flat buses are disposed intermediate the flat outputs and are insulated therefrom, with each of said flat buses being formed with a slot facing the coils and overlapped by the flat outputs. Such apparatus construction permits its efficiency to be increased 25 to 40 percent.

Abstract: An inductor for forming metals by the pressure of a pulsed magnetic field comprises a magnetic field concentrator with a coil inducing eddy currents therein, the concentrator being made up of electrically insulated dies with an opening for the workpiece, so arranged that the plane in which the concentrator is split extends along said opening. Such a design of the inductor permits improving the power characteristics thereof, simplifies its operation, extends its service life, and enhances its efficiency. It also permits forming a wide variety of components.
