Tensile properties of 6061 aluminum alloy sheet were investigated by means of electric universal test machine, scanning electron microscopy ( SEM) etc．and compared with those parameters of 6010 aluminum alloy; By using machine performance parameters of 6061 aluminum alloy ,finite element software eta/DYNAFORM of Sheet Forming made the numerical simulation of Erichsen tester process of 6061 aluminum alloy sheet ,and the result of numerical simulation compared with actual Erichsen tester. The press forming performance of 6061 alloy sheet have been analyzed．The results show that compared with 6010 aluminum alloy, proof strength σs and tensile strength σb of 6061 aluminum alloy sheet exhibits worse,but even percentage elongation δ of 6061 alloy sheet exhibits similar; The value IE of numerical simulation exhibits similar with actual value IE. So 6061 aluminum alloy sheet have formability in a certain extent and apply in some fields of automobile instead of 6010 aluminum alloy.

The unreasonable residual stress field in sheet part has an adverse effect on the dimensional accuracy and performance. A forming method combined stamping and forging was proposed to reduce the residual stress of the sheet part. The residual stress field in 2024 aluminum alloy V-shaped piece after bending and forging was analyzed by the finite element software Abaqus. The results showed that the stamping-forging forming process can significantly reduce the residual stress in round corner of V-shaped piece, and simultaneously decrease springback and improve the dimensional precision of sheet part.

Cylindrical Workpiece

The vacuum hot bulge forming has been used in aerospace industry to manufacture cylindrical workpiece with improved mechanical properties and reduced fabrication cost. Vacuum hot bulge forming is based on the material soften and the stress relaxation theory. Different from other metal forming techniques, deformation of the workpiece takes place well below yield point and the amount of plastic deformation is directly relaxed to heating temperature and holding time. In this paper, a two-dimension thermo-mechanical coupled finite element model was developed. In this model, nonlinear radiation heat transfer and thermal physical properties of material depending on temperature were considered. This paper carried out numerical simulation of vacuum hot bulge forming of BT20 Ti-alloy cylindrical workpiece by using finite element software MSC.Marc. The temperature field, deformation field and stress field of hot bulge forming of BT20 Ti-alloy cylindrical workpiece were calculated. Numerical simulation results were accorded with experimental ones, which provided for the practice production as theory bases.

6016 Aluminum Alloy

In order to improve formability of high strength Al-alloy sheet metal, in this paper, it come up with the synchronized cooling hot forming process. Taking the aluminum alloy of 6016 H18 aluminum alloy, which carried out its technology test by Gleeble3500 hot-mechanical simulator. The process parameters such as deformation temperature T, holding time t and cooling rate v is investigated by the orthogonal test and the microstructure is analyzed simultaneously. The results show that the synchronized cooling hot forming process can be applied to 6016 H18 aluminum alloy, it both improves the formability of 6016 H18 aluminum alloy significantly and obtains the high strength after forming, it can meet the purpose of implementing deformation and enhanced in one process step, the proper combination of process parameters are T=450 °C, t=210 s, v=60 °C/s. Strengthening mechanism is which there is a large number of strengthening phase precipitated from matrix in technology process, the strengthening phases are coarser and the dispersed uniformity is a bit worse compared with that of T4 state.
