半固态304型不锈钢凝固和重熔过程中的结构形态及形变特征

1前言 半固态金属成形主要用于对铝合金和镁合金等轻金属的加工。到目前为止，半固态金属成形一直被用来制造此类合金的各种金属部件，如汽车和移动电话的配件。对于轻金属半固态成形的绝大多数研究的目的是为了揭示轻金属合金半固态成形实用技术发展的基本特征。相比之下，对包括不锈钢在内的铁基合金半固态成形的研究还非常少，这可能是由于此类合金具有较高的熔点、较窄的半固态温度区间以及在凝固和重熔过程中发生复杂的γ←→δ相变。对铁基合金半固态成形工艺进行优化需要了解其在半固态时的材料特性。这些特性在半固态温度区间内受到材料显微结构变化的显著影响。对于铁基合金半固态成形的研究仍处于基础阶段。     

Development of a Robot‐Based Sheet Metal Forming Process

This paper describes a new sheet metal forming process for the production of sheet components for prototypes and small lot sizes. The generation of the shape is based on kinematics and is implemented by means of a new forming machine consisting of two industrial robots. Compared to conventional sheet metal forming machines, this newly developed forming process offers a high geometrical form flexibility, and comparatively small deformation forces enable high deformation degrees. The principle of the procedure is based on flexible shaping by means of a freely programmable path‐synchronous movement of the two robots. The final shape is produced by the incremental infeed of the forming tool in depth direction and its movement along the contour in lateral direction at each level of the depth direction. The supporting tool with its simple geometry is used to support the sheet metal and follows the forming tool at the rear side of the sheet metal. The sheet metal components manufactured in first attempts are of simple geometry like frustum and frustum of pyramids as well as spherical cups. Among other things the forming results are improved by an adjustment of the movement strategy, a variation of individual process parameters and geometric modifications of the tools. In addition to a measurement of the form deviations of the sheet with a Coordinate Measurement Machine, screened and deformed sheets are used for deformation analyses. Furthermore, the incremental forming process is analysed with assistance of the finite element method. In total the results show that a robot‐based sheet metal forming with kinematic shape generation is possible and leads to acceptable forming results. In order to be able to use the potential of this process, a goal‐oriented process design is as necessary as specific process knowledge. In order to achieve process stability and safety, the essential process parameters and the process boundaries have to be determined.     

Faster to Sound Parts by Advanced Forming Process Simulation ‐ Advanced Forming Process Model Including the Elastic Effects of the Forming Press and Tool

This article addresses process, stamping, and manufacturing engineers, as well as tool designers (prototype and series production tools), and press shop planners in the range of metal forming. The paper deals with methods of modelling and simulating the metal forming process and their application in product design, production, and forming process planning. In models usually applied major effects on the forming process are neglected. For instance, the elastic behaviour of presses and die tools is not considered in process and tool planning. Thus, reworking of tools is a consequence of this model oversimplification. The paper illustrates how interactions between forming press, die tool and metal forming processes can be modelled by enhancing conventional FE models. Several examples demonstrate the information value of the Advanced Forming Process Model (AFPM).     

Tailored Profiles Made of Tailor Rolled Strips by Roll Forming – Part 2 of 2

The main scope of the presented work is to demonstrate the potential of load optimized tubes with a varying thickness distribution in circumferential direction produced by roll forming. As initial material a so called Tailor Rolled Strip (TRS) sheet metal coil produced by Strip Profile Rolling (SPR) method was used instead of plain sheet. The TRS sheet metal is manufactured in a continuously working process by rolling one or more groves in transverse direction into the sheet metal coil. In this paper, the secondary forming of the TRS sheet metal to TRS tubes is investigated by means of FE‐simulations and roll forming experiments. To simulate the manufacturing process of the TRS tube by FEM, an integrated consideration of the process is necessary because of the large local strain hardening in the groves of the initial SPR sheet metal. In experimental roll forming operations welded tubes could be manufactured successfully. The geometrical and material properties of these tubes are analyzed. The reprocessing of TRS tubes by hydroforming is investigated by means of tube bursting tests. It has been found that an additional annealing process is necessary to achieve deformations in the grooved area during the hydroforming process.

The processes discussed include forging, sheet metal forming and hydroforming. Determination of reliable input parameters to simulate a process is a key element in successful application of process simulation for process design in all the mentioned areas. These issues are discussed in detail. Practical examples of application of FE simulation are presented for improvement of the existing metal forming process and/or designing new metal forming process for manufacturing discrete precision parts in forging, sheet metal forming and hydroforming.     

Investigations of Forming Behaviour in Laser Shock Forming

The continuing trend of miniaturization has entailed the need for new cost efficient and fast methods for processing small parts. In this paper a new non‐mechanical process for the forming process of micro deep drawing is presented. This new deep drawing process utilizes a laser initiated plasma shock wave at the target, which forms the sheet. Several pulses can be applied at one point and therefore high forming degrees can be reached without increasing the energy density. In this paper the pressure of the shock wave is measured in order to enable optimizations of the process in future. Furthermore, an analysis of the thickness distribution over the deep drawn cups will be introduced. Laser deep drawing of samples made of Al99.5, Cu and stainless steel sheet metal with thicknesses of 20 μm and 50 μm are shown. Finally the efficiency of the laser shock forming process in calculated.     

Experimental Study on Springback of Sheet Metal Single Point Incremental Forming

Sheet metal single point incremental forming (SPIF) is a new technology for flexible process.The spring- back phenomenon in single point incremental forming has been discussed.Effects of forming angle and shape of the part are analysed using simple experimental method.Tool diameter, sheet thickness, step size, material parameters and the interaction of them are also analysed by using orthogonal test.The results show that the primary factor af- fecting springback is forming angle.In addition, springback is decreased when the specimen has a larger forming angle.The order of the four factors that influence springback is tool diameter, sheet thickness, step size and materi- al parameters.The forming precision will increase if springabck is decreased by optimizing the forming parameters.     

Numerical simulation of tube profile growth during spray forming process

Spray forming is a new type of metal material forming process,which can produce metal blanks such as billet,tube,plate etc.A mathematical model has been developed to forecast the shape evolution of tube billets during the spray forming process.The atomizer mass flux as,radial distribution coefficient bs,draw velocity and diameter of mandrel were considered in this model and the influence of different parameters such as metal flowrate,draw velocity of mandrel,diameter of mandrel on the tube’s shape change were simulated and analyzed in this paper.The simulation results obtained from this model can be provided to engineers as reference.     

Simulation of the Process Influencing Behaviour of Forming Machines

In the design of sheet metal components and associated tools the use of forming process simulation based on finite element method is state of the art. The modelling of the forming process, however, neglects fundamental influences of the forming machine. But today, the machine behaviour influencing the process can be described with simulation tools sufficiently. The article presented here describes the current state of simulation for forming machines in regard to static and dynamic influences on the forming process. Furthermore, two examples and a proposal for enhancing the model are given.     

Numerical Simulation and Sensitivity Analysis of Parameters for Multistand Roll Forming of Channel Section With Outer Edge

 Cold roll forming is a high production but complex metal forming process under the conditions of coupled effects with multi factor. A new booting finite element method (FEM) model using the updated Lagrangian (UL) method for multistand roll forming process is developed and validated. Compared with most of the literatures related to roll forming simulation, the new model can take the roll rotation into account and is well suited for simulating multistand roll forming. Based on the model, the process of a channel section with outer edge formed with twelve passes is simulated and the sensitivity analysis of parameters is conducted with orthogonal design combined FEM model. It is found that the multistand roll forming process can be efficiently analyzed by the new booting model, and sensitivity analysis shows that the yield strength plays an important role in controlling the quality of the products.
