Complete parts can be made from entry rounds, squares, or rectangles—hot or cold. Types include simultaneous blow used to create fluted shapes and cross-circular sections and alternate blow used to create rectangular shapes, squares, and hexagons. This method is capable of any cross-section other than a perfect circle. During stationary die swaging, the spindle assembly remains stationary, and the roller cage rotates. Shown left to right: Stationary Swagers, Alternate Blow, Simultaneous Blow.

 During rotary swaging, forming dies back by hammer blocks revolve around the workpiece. As the spindle revolves, centrifugal force throws the hammers and dies outwards against a series of rollers surrounding the spindle. Each time the hammer blocks strike diametrically opposed rolled, they are driven inward – causing the die halves to close and compress the metal being swaged.​ ​Examples include cartridge heaters, hypodermic tubing, piping, armaments, and logging industry applications.
