A novel multi-layer coil for a large and thick-walled component by electromagnetic forming

A driving coil is one significant tool for transferring electrical energy to plastic energy during electromagnetic forming, and the coil structure plays a crucial role on the distribution of magnetic field and electromagnetic force acting on the workpiece and determines the forming characteristics and magnitude. Due to the limitation of the conventional coil on forming a large and thick-walled component, this paper proposes a novel multi-layer flat spiral coil for large and thick sheets based on theoretical analysis of the relations of coil inductance, skin depth of sheets and energy efficiency. Taking electromagnetic flanging forming of a large and thick-walled sheet for example, a 3D numerical model is developed to investigate the effects of coil structure on magnetic field and sheet forming. Finally, several electromagnetic flanging experiments with 5 mm 5056 aluminum alloy sheets by a three-layer coil are carried out to validate the simulation results and a comparison of the thickness distribution and the fittability degree between the die and the sheet after one-time and two-time forming is performed. The results show that the magnetic force loading on the workpiece increases obviously with the increase of the coil layer owing to the additive effect of each layer of the multi-layer coils, and further enlarges the deformation, while the pressure acting on the coils can be controlled effectively due to the share of each layer of the multi-layer coils. The energy efficiency of the multi-layer coils increases with the increase of the skin depth and peaks at 19.6% when the skin depth is equal to the sheet thickness. The experimental results of electromagnetic flanging based on a three-layer coil coincide with the simulation results.     

采用有限元法设计电磁成形的非均匀线圈(英文)

电磁成形是一种使用脉冲电磁力快速成形的工艺。线圈是电磁成形系统中的一个重要组成部分,需要根据实际应用情况来设计。均匀螺旋线圈通常用在金属板材零件成形中。然而,对于这类非均匀线圈,工件中心部位的电磁力弱,从而导致变形不充分并且还有其它问题出现,如滞留气泡。因此,提出一个设计非均匀线圈的概念,以便电磁力的分布更均匀。采用有限元法对提出的非均匀线圈与传统的均匀螺旋线圈就电磁力的分布、磁场和电流密度进行比较。结果表明,非均匀线圈的电磁力分布更均匀。还计算了线圈的感应强度并进行了比较。

Thermal loads of working coils in electromagnetic sheet metal forming

One basic problem of electromagnetic forming is the limited tool life. Besides the mechanical loads especially thermal loads acting on the tool coil affect its lifetime. In electromagnetic forming, about 50% of the deployed electrical energy is lost because of joule heating in the working coil. In case of high volume production, an accumulation of this heat promotes failure of the coil and reduces the coil lifetime. Despite this importance of the thermal loads only insufficient information about the coil temperature and its influencing parameters is available. Focus of this paper is on the determination of the temperature distribution in case of long-term discharge sequences. Experimental investigations using an infrared camera were performed to measure the coil surface temperature. Numerical process simulation is used to gather information about the temperature inside the working coil. The results prove that the coil reaches an equilibrium temperature after several discharges. For the analyzed range of input power the maximum coil surface temperature and the maximum coil winding temperature reached values of 92 °C and 178 °C, respectively. These temperatures exceed the weakening temperature of most reinforcement and insulation materials. The derived knowledge about the parameters influencing the coil temperature can be used for an improved process design to avoid thermal overstressing of the coil. A comparison of experiments with and without workpiece deformation revealed that the temperature in case of prevented deformation is always higher, and thus, represents an upper bound for the coil temperature.

Surface reconstruction for incremental forming

In spite of extensive efforts being made with regard to virtual process optimization technology, the production of prototype parts is still a necessity. With respect to the production of sheet metal parts in low quantities, incremental sheet metal forming (ISMF) is a highly interesting process. ISMF allows the production of complex parts with drastically reduced costs in tooling and machinery compared to conventional processes like deep drawing. However, ISMF, with it’s incremental nature, introduces the need for generating a tool path considering both final geometry and process-induced deviations or constraints. Consequently, for the generation of the tool path a (tool path) surface, with an adequate offset, is necessary. That is why, within the scope of extensive research work at the Institute of Forming Technology and Lightweight Construction (IUL), a special correction module has been developed, determining this offset e.g. depending on the workpiece geometry. This paper presents the algorithm, the application, and the effect on the produced parts. Furthermore, a concept for an extension regarding further constraints like elastic workpiece behavior is presented.     

Increasing the part accuracy in dieless robot-based incremental sheet metal forming

Roboforming is a dieless, incremental, robot-based sheet metal forming process for cost-effective manufacture of prototype parts and small batch sizes. Its principle is based on flexible shaping by means of a freely programmable path-synchronous movement of two industrial robots driving workpiece-independent forming tools.The novelty of this process leads to a huge need for further research. The main task is to increase the geometrical accuracy which is primarily influenced by the compliance of the involved serial robot structures and the springback effects of the workpiece. An offline model-based and an online sensor-based strategy to increase part accuracy are presented.
