Metal Forming Process

Sheet-bulk metal forming is a novel manufacturing technology, which unites the advantages and design solutions of sheet metal and bulk metal forming. To challenge the high forming force the process is superimposed with an oscillation in the main flow of the process. The paper focuses on the characterization of the material behavior under cyclic load and the effects for the sheet bulk metal forming process.

Sheet-bulk metal forming is a manufacturing technology, which allows to produce a solid metal component out of a flat sheet. This paper focuses on numerical and experimental investigations of a new multistage forming process with compound press tools. The complete process sequence for the production of this solid metal component consists of three forming stages, which include a total of six production techniques. The first forming stage includes deep drawing, simultaneous cutting and following wall upsetting. In the second forming stage, flange forming combined with cup bottom ironing takes place. In the last stage of the process sequence, the component is sized. To investigate and to improve process parameters such as plastic strain distribution, resulting dimensions and process forces, FEA is performed. Based on these results the developed process is designed.

Metal Forming Process

Sheet bulk metal forming is a new forming technology, currently developed by several companies and research institutes. It creates high demands on the inspection of parts and tools, especially in the field of in-situ abrasion detection of the forming tool and its impacts on the work piece. This manuscript introduces two optical testing methods for fulfilling these inspection tasks: On the one hand the endoscopic fringe projection as a flexible small scale optical measurement principal with high depth of focus and accuracy for the acquisition of filigree form elements for a continuous abrasion determination and one the other hand the multi-scaled fringe projection for a holistic one shot measurement of the work piece for an adapted, multiscale deviation analysis. The development and advantages of both systems for the sheet bulk metal forming process are shown as well as potentials of the combination of the both systems close to the proposed application next to the production line.

Due to novel processes like sheet-bulk metal forming, the requirements for sheet metal forming are increased. Sheet-bulk metal forming is a new interconnected process in which the part itself is manufactured by deep drawing and the gearing will be produced with bulk forming in a combined process at room temperature. This process is characterized by a triaxial state of stress and a triaxial dimensional change with true strains up to  = 1-2 by using sheet blanks. Within the use of superimposing of oscillation on a sheet-bulk metal forming process the required forming force can be reduced and the accuracy of dimension of the part can be improved. Within this paper the influence of the superimposing of oscillation on the sheet bulk metal forming will be shown on combined ironing and external extrusion process. For the superimposing of oscillation different excitation frequencies will be analysed. Furthermore the die clearance will be varied to increase the requirements on the process. Finally the influence of the different excitation frequencies and the different die clearances will be summarized in cause and effect relationship diagram.

Metal Forming Process

Rundkneten ist ein Massivumformverfahren zur Herstellung von Leichtbaukomponenten aus zylindrischen Halbzeugen. Es setzt derzeit einen intensiven Einsatz von Schmiermitteln voraus, um Werkzeugverschleiß zu minimieren und die gewünschte Bauteilqualität bereitzustellen. In dieser Arbeit werden strukturierte und hartstoffbeschichtete Rundknetwerkzeuge vorgestellt. Strukturierung und Beschichtung ersetzen die Funktionen des Schmierstoffes und bilden die Grundlage für eine trockene Prozessführung.   Rotary swaging is an incremental bulk metal forming process for the manufacture of cylindrical light weight components. Nowadays, rotary swaging is carried out under the extensive use of lubricant to avoid abrasive and adhesive tool wear and to provide the desired work piece quality. This work presents rotary swaging tools exhibiting hard coated and structured surfaces substituting the function of the lubricant and allowing for a successful dry rotary swaging.
