Well, it is quite a similar effect, though. But here, I used mild steel instead. ;)

Please note the red area, left to the central hole; this is an area of high stresses due to the tool contact. Thus, you see, that the part is actually being formed instead of simply rotated. That was done by an one-step implicit calculation beforehand.

Best wishes:
