Abstract
A method of making a capsule 2 for hot isostatic pressing (HIPing) comprises: (i) selecting a first sheet of metal; (ii) subjecting the first sheet to a forming process, for example die forming, thereby to define a first member 4a of the capsule; (iii) securing said first member to one or more other members thereby to define at least part of a capsule for HIPing.

A method of making a capsule for hot isostatic pressing (HIPing), the method comprising:
- (i) selecting a first sheet of metal;
- (ii) subjecting the first sheet to a forming process thereby to define a first member of the capsule;
- (iii) selecting a second sheet of metal;
- (iv) subjecting the second sheet to a forming process thereby to define a second member of the capsule comprising first and second elongate edges;
- (v) securing said first member to the second member thereby to define at least part of a capsule for HIPing, by abutting the first and second elongate edges of the first member against the first and second elongate edges of the second member and securing the abutting edges together by welding.
