Electromagnetic forming (EM forming or Magneforming) is a type of high energy rate metal forming process that uses pulsed power techniques to create ultrastrong pulsed magnetic fields to rapidly reshape metal parts. The technique is sometimes called high velocity forming.

The forming process is most often used to shrink or expand cylindrical tubing, but it can also form sheet metal by repelling the work piece onto a shaped die at a high velocity. Since the forming operation involves high acceleration and deceleration, mass of the work piece plays a critical role during the forming process. The process works best with good electrical conductors such as copper or aluminum, but it can be adapted to work with poorer conductors such as steel.
