Device design and forming technology analysis for surface flexible rolling

Three dimensional sheet metal parts can be formed continuously and flexibly by the method of surface flexible rolling. To verify the feasibility of the method, the forming device is designed and the critical components, working rolls, driving modes are studied based on the principle of surface flexible rolling. The modes can be divided into two kinds: single-ended and double-ended. The results show that one-step forming process can be used in the case of small amount deformation and will achieve good forming quality and high efficiency. The multi-step forming process makes a small reduction in the sheet metal forming each time gradually and can eliminate the plate edges folding, reduce the rebound conducive to some extent. The real-time forming process which will enhance the flexible rolling forming automation and efficiency is discussed theoretically. The forming precision and thickness distribution of the pieces are favorable.
