In this paper, the distribution of magnetic forces of uniform pressure coil and the electromagnetic shaping with die of aluminum alloy 1060 surface parts will be researched using the finite element method. The results show that: Uniform pressure coil can produce a uniform magnetic pressure on the sheet; The springback after electromagnetic aimed stamping is smaller than the springback after normal stamping; Before achieving the best results, with the discharge energy increases, springback will be smaller; with greater punch and die clearance, greater energy will be needed to achieve the best effect; Too large discharge energy will lead sheet bounce after punch, springback increases.

Simulation Results

The coil is the most important component in electromagnetic forming. Two important questions in electromagnetic forming are how to obtain the desired magnetic force distribution on the sheet and increase the service life of the coil. A uniform pressure coil is widely used in sheet embossing, bulging, and welding. However, the coil is easy to break, and the manufacturing process is complex. In this paper, a new uniform-pressure coil with a planar structure was designed. A three-dimensional (3D) finite element model was established to analyze the effect of the main process parameters on magnetic force distribution. By comparing the experimental results, it was found that the simulation results have a higher analysis precision. Based on the simulation results, the resistivity of the die, spacing between the left and right parts of the coil, relative position between coil and sheet, and sheet width significantly affect the distribution of magnetic force. Compared with the structure and magnetic force on a traditional uniform pressure coil, the planar uniform pressure coil can produce a uniform magnetic force distribution on the sheet, reduce the manufacturing difficulty, reduce manufacturing cost, and enhance the service life for the coil.

Sheet Metal Workpiece

Electromagnetic Forming (EMF) is a high-speed forming process that can be applied for shaping, joining and cutting of workpieces made of electrically conductive material eg. aluminium. This paper proposes a dual electromagnetic forming method. Energy efficiency of the dual electromagnetic forming is compared with the single sided electromagnetic forming using FEM simulations. In uniform pressure rectangular coil, the top layer of the coil assists in the deformation of the workpiece while the bottom layer hinders the workpiece deformation.To make the bottom layer of the coil also to assist in the deformation of the workpiece, a uniform pressure rectangular coil is designed and placed between the two sheet metal workpiece. The efficiency of the two processes are compared by determing the maximum deformation obtained for each case.

Row Of Fibers

The morphology and composition of the fiber-matrix interface can best be studied by transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction. For some composites satisfactory samples can be prepared by electropolishing. For others such as aluminum alloy-boron composites ion erosion is necessary.When one wishes to examine a specimen with the electron beam perpendicular to the fiber, preparation is as follows: A 1/8 in. disk is cut from the sample with a cylindrical tool by spark machining. Thin slices, 5 mils thick, containing one row of fibers, are then, spark-machined from the disk. After spark machining, the slice is carefully polished with diamond paste until the row of fibers is exposed on each side, as shown in Figure 1.In the case where examination is desired with the electron beam parallel to the fiber, preparation is as follows: Experimental composites are usually 50 mils or less in thickness so an auxiliary holder is necessary during ion milling and for easy transfer to the electron microscope. This holder is pure aluminum sheet, 3 mils thick.
