Conventional swaging methods swage a round carbon steel sleeve on the wire rope with repeated multiple closing of the dies until the sleeve is completely swaged. This "multi-swage" system of swaging steel sleeves on wire rope requires several die closures depending on the wire rope diameter.

Tube anchoring methods and devices of the above-mentioned kind are particularly suitable for the expansion-swaging of tube ends into the receiving bores of the tube plates of a heat exchanger, for example.

Present methods include mechanical swaging and standard electromagnetic swaging. In small tubing applications mechanical swaging methods become very hard to implement. The high forces required to swage tend to cause failure of equipment and tooling.

The cold swaging of fittings on wire rope is a severe process requiring considerable movement of the steel in the fitting. The steel in the fitting is forced under great pressure to flow into the crevices between the wires and strands of the wire rope and, at the same time, to elongate parallel to the wire rope.
