As a non-homogenous force stresses during incremental forming, sheet metal easily tended to instability, and some defects, such as deposition, wrinkle and fracture, would appear. If the vibration technique was combined the incremental forming process, its deformation mechanism would be different from that of the old process, and sheet metal deformation quality was also risen. Then some mechanical equations were built by force analyzed on element in local contact zone of die head forcing down. According to reasonable hypothesis and simplified, the equations were solved. Some stress-time curves of the element were obtained by given process parameters, vibrational parameters and time parameters. It is shown from analysis that stress variety of the element is closely related to amplitude, frequency and forming angle, effect of sheet metal vibration incremental forming with high frequency vibration is more superior than that of with low frequency vibration; only when vibrational parameters are reasonably matching technical parameters, the effective vibration incremental forming can be obtained.

Improvement Method

The NC incremental sheet metal forming technology is a flexible forming technology without dedicated forming dies. The forming locus of the forming tool can be adjusted by correcting the numerical model of the product. Because the deformation of sheet metal only occurs around the tool head and the deformed region is subjected to stretch deformation, the deformed region of sheet metal thins, and surface area increases. Sheet metal forming stepwise is to lead to the whole sheet metal deformation. The principle of NC incremental sheet metal forming and the forming process of the fender are introduced. The effect of process parameters on forming is analysed. The improvement method of the forming quality is suggested. The groove is created in the starting point of tool moving when the starting point of tool moving locus at all layers is identical. The groove can be eliminated when the starting point of tool moving locus at all layers is different. The feed pitch p increase, the process time decrease, production rate and surface degree of roughness increase. In general, the feed pitch is 0.25mm.
