Abstract: A method and an apparatus for reshaping a tube having an initial outside diameter, an initial wall thickness, and an initial length to form a tube have a reshaped outside diameter, a reshaped length, and a reshaped wall thickness, wherein at least one of the reshaped outside diameter, the reshaped length, and the reshaped wall thickness is different than a respective one of the initial outside diameter, the initial wall thickness, and the initial length. The method includes mounting the tube between two axially displaceable pressure rams with the ends of the tube against respective rams; applying an internal hydraulic pressure to the tube; applying an axial mechanical pressure to the tube via the rams; and simultaneously and uniformly cold-working the tube over its entire length by adjusting the internal hydraulic pressure and the axial mechanical pressure as a function of the reshaped outside diameter, the reshaped wall thickness, and the reshaped length.

Abstract: A personal containment system includes a generally fluid-tight barrier and a powered air delivery system. The blower is generally isolated from the outer environment and draws purified air from a filter in fluid communication with the blower and generally located outside the containment system. A sealed port between the blower and filter provides a generally fluid tight connection to the barrier and blower during filter replacement. Leakage of contaminants into the system is minimized, and limited to materials that might enter the blower inlet. The blower inlet remains accessible during filter replacement, thereby speeding and simplifying the filter replacement process.
