Electromagnetic dynamic plasticating extrusion, as one of main novel forming methods, has many important benefits to the forming process and the properties of its products. Here a visualization technique of flow induced birefringence was used to study the effects of the vibration parameters of screw on the extensional stress in contraction die. It is shown that , the extensional stress vibrate with the screw vibration at the same frequency; the amplitude of the extensional stress increases with the amplitude of the screw increasing; the average extensional stress at dynamic extrusion is less than that without vibration force, and it decreases with the screw vibration frequency or amplitude increasing.

A novel rheological measuring apparatus was designed, which introduced an additional sinusoidal vibration in parallel on the extruding direction of polymer melt in this paper. Melt rheology of polypropylene filled CaCO3 particles in various amounts of filler (i.e. with 3 and 20 wt%) during capillary melt-extrusion were investigated respectively. The effects of vibration parameters on rheological behaviors were studied. Compared with the steady extrusion, the apparent viscosity of filled system decreased remarkably with the increase of vibration frequency and amplitude. The apparent viscosity reached to the minimum value as vibration frequency was about 8 Hz. When the filled percentage of CaCO3 was low, the response of apparent viscosity will be more distinct with the increasing vibration parameters.

Compression of alfalfa into briquettes is an effective way to solve the problem of storage and transportation. In the process of compression, heat is generated and the temperature is raised in the material. In fact, the appropriate temperature can improve the quality of alfalfa briquettes and reduce the energy consumption of densification. In this study, the effect of assisted vibration on the compression temperature was tested. The results showed that when the vibration frequency was below 15 Hz, the temperature at the center and side in compressed alfalfa increased slowly with compression time. When the vibration frequency was above 20 Hz, it increased first and then decreased with the increase of time. Moreover, the maximum temperature value increased remarkably when the frequency was above 20 Hz. In the same vibration frequency and compression time, the center temperature in the compressed alfalfa was higher than the side temperature. The experimental results provide a reference for the determination of reasonable vibration parameters, and explanation of the effect of vibration on reducing energy consumption.

Bubble-stretching based dispersion method can be used to prevent the agglomeration of nanoparticles during the process of preparing nanocomposites, whereas its effectiveness is restricted by the practically low migration ratio of particles onto the bubble wall. Theoretical models for bubble vibration and particle migration have been presented, followed by numerically study on effects of different parameters on migration ratio of particles on to the bubble wall. The numerical results have shown that bubble initial radius, bubble initial pressure and particle diameters impact the particle migration ratio obviously and it is found that the particle migration ratio can be improved effectively through the optimal control of the vibration parameters of the bubble happed in the dispersion process. Therefore, this article provides a theoretical basis for the efforts on increasing the particles migration ratio and thus the dispersion effectiveness of nanoparticles in polymer melt.

Stretch forming of sheet metal materials is a highly required process in aerospace industry for manufacturing skin parts. Automation of some processes such as cutting, punching, forming, shearing and nesting in conventional manufacturing tends to combine these forming methods. Some researches are made on the formability of sheet metal materials obtained in incremental forming process with stretch forming and water jet incremental micro-forming with supporting dies. This paper is an attempt to review the newly researches made on optimization of manufacturing metal skin parts to achieve geometrical accuracy.

This paper firstly introduces the principle and characteristic of traditional extrusion tapping of internal thread, elaborates the material flow law during tapping process. Then puts forward a novel process of vibration-assisted extrusion tapping of internal thread, explains the effect mechanism of vibration during extrusion tapping of internal thread. Finally, with the finite element method (FEM), the simplified model of extrusion tapping are built, and the simulation of thread forming process of traditional extrusion tapping of internal thread are conducted, furthermore, the characteristic and influencing law of different vibration parameters (include vibration frequency, amplitude and direction) of vibration-assisted extrusion tapping of internal thread are studied, and some practical results are obtained. The simulation results show that applying vibration to extrusion tapping of internal thread can reduce tapping torque and improve thread forming quality, the reasonable selection of vibration parameters are very crucial to this novel process.

The deformation of vibration incremental forming process for sheet metal is in high complexity, theory research is not perfect. This subject using DEFORM simulation software, joined the vibration on the forming process of tool head and simulated the forming process base on different tool radius and vibration parameters. Simulation result indicated that vibration in greatly reduced the stress of the forming tool head. The right vibration parameters smoothed out the forming force largely, reduced sheet metal stress concentration, improved product quality and product yield. That has a higher degree of study and use value.

ABSTRACTIn forming procedure of the micro grooves in the flat micro-groove heat pipe, the tie rod is often observed to be broken and the multi-tooth cutter is damaged due to the sharp increase of the ploughing-pulling pressure. This paper theoretically analyzes the factors affecting the capillary heat transferring limit of the micro-groove heat pipe, and simulates the machining process using finite element to acquire the best processing parameters: the squeeze angle is 120°, the drawing depth is 0.25mm, and the ploughing-pulling velocity is 100mm/s. Then these parameters are verified by real manufacturing experiments. The experimental results show that the ploughing-pulling pressure of the micro-groove forming process is close to the strength limit of the rod or multi-tooth cutter, and the process makes little swarf during work. Thus, only using the appropriate machine tool parameters, forming parameters and forming methods can make the wicking structure of flat micro-groove micro-heat pipe with the best heat transferring performance.

Incremental forming is a recent sheet metal forming process that has high flexibility and repeatability. Unlike conventional forming methods this process is applicable mainly in the production of prototypes or small batches of automobile body panels, headlight reflectors, etc. In this investigation IS 513 CR3 Deep Drawing quality steel sheets of thickness 0.6 mm were incrementally formed into pyramids to study their formability characteristics. Experiments were conducted under three different spindle speeds (1000, 1500 and 2000 rpm), three tool feeds (1200, 1400 and 1600 mm.min-1) and three step depths (0.4, 0.5, and 0.6 mm). Forming time, thickness distribution and formability of the final components were studied. FEA models were created using Abaqus software and validated with experimental results.
