Forming complex sheet products using hydrostatic forming technology is currently a focus of the majority of forming processes. However, in order to increase stability during the forming process, it is necessary to identify and analyze the dependency of the forming pressure and the quality of a product on input parameters. For the purpose of modeling the forming pressure, this paper presents empirical research on the product of a cylindrical cup made of various materials, including carbon steel (DC04), copper (CDA260), and stainless steel (SUS 304) with different thicknesses (0.8 mm, 1.0 mm, and 1.2 mm), under a defined range of binder pressures. The regression method is selected to formulate an equation that shows the relationship between the input parameters, including the materials (ultimate strength and yield stress), workpiece thickness, binder pressure and the output parameter, and the formation of fluid pressure. The mathematical equation allows us to determine the extent of the effect of each input on the forming pressure. The experimental results can be used for the easier planning and forecasting of the process and product quality in hydrostatic forming.

Forming fluid pressure is an important technological parameter that determines whether a product can be accurately formed according to the size and profile of the die in hydrostatic forming technology. The expected value of this parameter is often very high because it acts as the punch in forming complex products from sheet metal. However, it is difficult to achieve high values because the forming fluid pressure depends on the ability to hold high pressure of equipment system and input parameters including the blank holder pressure, the depth of die, the thickness of workpiece. Moreover, it is also necessary to have a mathematical model for this parameter to facilitate the calculation and control of the forming process. In order to solve the above problems, this paper will indicate a simple way to avoid the pressure drop during forming process, and establish a regression function relationship between the forming fluid pressure for typical cylindrical product and input parameters above by experimental research method. The results contribute to die design, calculation and control of process parameters to facilitate shaping thin shell products in actual hydrostatic forming technology.

Techniken zur Steigerung der Formgebungsgrenzen in der Umformtechnik sind von hoher wirtschaftlicher Bedeutung. In dieser Arbeit wird eine Schwingungsüberlagerung im Krafthauptfluss eines Axialformprozesses zur Ausprägung einer Verzahnungsgeometrie untersucht. Die Auswirkungen der Schwingung auf die erzielbare Ausfüllung der Zahnkavitäten werden analysiert sowie die Parameter Schmierung und Oberflächengüte der Halbzeuge in ihrer kombinierten Wirkung untersucht. Es konnte eine Reduzierung der mittleren Umformkraft sowie eine Erhöhung der Formfüllung festgestellt werden. Techniques for extending the production limits in forming technology are of great economic importance. In this research, a superimposed oscillation in the main force flow of an axial forming process to form an axial gear geometry is investigated. The effects of the superimposed oscillation on the achievable form-filling of the tooth cavities are analyzed and the parameters lubrication and surface quality of the semi-finished products are investigated in their combined effect. A reduction of the averaged forming force as well as an increase of the form-filling could be achieved.

In sheet metal forming, thinning phenomenon is one of the most concerned topics to ameliorate the final quality of the manufactured parts. The thinning variations depend on many input parameters, such as technological parameters, geometric shape of die, workpiece’s materials, and forming methods. Hydrostatic forming technology is particularly suitable for forming thin-shell products with complex shapes. However, due to the forming characteristics, the thinning variations in this technology are much more intense than in other forming methods. Therefore, in this paper, an empirical study is developed to determine the thinning variations in hydrostatic forming for cylindrical cup. Measurement of thickness at various locations of deformed products are conducted to investigate the thickness distribution and determine the dependence of the largest thinning ratio on the input parameters (including the blank holder pressure, the relative depth of the die and the relative thickness of the workpiece). The results are expressed in charts and equation which allow determining the effect of each input parameter on the largest thinning ratio.

Synchronized hydraulic bulging forming technology on three-layer-metal tubes was studied. The possibility of three-layer-metal tubes formed by hydraulic bulging method was discussed and proved by elastic-plastic theory. The calculation formulas about the bulging pressure, the residual contact stress and the relationship between them were derived and the main process parameters were analyzed. Finite element analysis was carried out on bulging forming process using MSC. Marc. Practical bulging forming experiments were conducted and well compounded three-layer-metal tubes with tight interfaces were obtained. Through the comparison of the results of theoretical analysis, numerical simulation and practical experiments, proper parameters for the bulging process were obtained and the theoretical analysis was verified and proved.

The forces during wire and tube drawing can be reduced by ultrasonically oscillating dies. It is a major problem of conventional wire and tube drawing to introduce high forces into the forming area. Compared to conventional wire and tube drawing, the forming process limits can be extended by superimposing ultrasonic waves due to decreasing drawing forces. Different techniques can be used to excite the die. One possibility is the variation of the vibration mode. In tube and wire drawing, the dies are usually excited longitudinally. If the vibration direction is parallel to the drawing direction, the main influence will be on the friction between workpiece and die. The Institute for Metal Forming Technology of the University of Stuttgart, Germany started a project to investigate the effect of ultrasonic waves on the tribology and on the formability of the workpiece. The objective of this investigation is to separate the ultrasonic effect on the surface from the volume effects. This paper shows that the reduction of the sliding friction between a longitudinal oscillating die and the workpiece can be explained by the so-called Sliding Friction Vector Effect (SFVE). A statistical evaluation of roughness-measurements makes it possible to show the effect of the ultrasonic vibration on the friction and gives an insight into the operation of the SFVE. The results are compared with wire and tube drawing experiments of copper and Ti-alloys. New tube- and wire-drawing experiments with longitudinally vibrating dies support the theoretical approach. The surface quality of the manufactured workpieces can be improved and the productivity increased.

Abstract The drawing forces during wire and tube drawing can be reduced by ultrasonically oscillating dies. A major problem of conventional wire and tube drawing is to introduce high forces into the forming area. Compared to conventional wire and tube drawing, the forming process limits can be extended by superimposing ultrasonic waves due to decreasing drawing forces. Different techniques can be used to exite the die. One possibility is the variation of the vibration mode. In tube and wire drawing, the dies are usually exited longitudinally. If the vibration direction is parallel to the drawing direction, the main influence will be on the friction between workpiece and die. The Institute for Metal Forming Technology of the University of Stuttgart, Germany started a project to investigate the effect of ultrasonic waves on the tribology and on the the formability of the workpiece. The objective of this investigation is to separate the ultrasonic effect on the surface from the volume effects. This paper shows, that the reduction of the sliding friction between a longitudinal oscillating die and the workpiece can be explained by the so called Sliding Friction Vector Effect (SFVE). A statistical evaluation of roughness-measurements makes it possible to show the effect of the ultrasonic vibration on the friction and gives an insight into the operation of the SFVE. The results are compared with wire and tube drawing experiments of copper and Ti-alloys. New tube- and wire-drawing experiments with longitudinally vibrating dies support the theoretical approach. The surface-quality of the manufactured workpieces can be improved and the productivity increases.
