Integrating Cold Forging and Progressive Stamping for Cost
Precision Cold Forging Progressive Stamping Enables Cost Effective Production of Complex Parts Overview Both Cold Forging and Precision Stamping are proven technologies used in the fabrication of parts for a wide range of industries. Many of our previous Tech Bulletins have detailed the benefits of each technology, and in several cases, these processes are thought of as an either- or choice. This Tech Bulletin provides insights into how combining these technologies in a process known as Precision Cold Forging Progressive Stamping can provide significant synergies and additional benefits for the cost-effective production of complex parts that cannot easily be created by either technique alone. What is Cold Forging? As detailed in other Interplex Tech Bulletins, Cold Forging is essentially an impact forming process in which billets of raw material are compressed and reformed into a part’s desired shape. Cold Forging offers the key benefits of lower costs, rapid high-volume throughput, high part strength, and very efficient material utilization. This, in comparison to processes like machining that remove Figure 1 – Cold Forged significant amounts of raw material rather than simply reforming all the Automotive Seat Belt Gear material into the desired shape. What is Precision Stamping? Precision Stamping is another proven technology that uses a press and die to form sheet metal, blanks or coil material into desired shapes. Variations of the stamping process can effectively yield several different output results including bending, embossing, flanging, coining, etc. Like Cold Forging, Precision Stamping typically offers high material utilization with minimal waste and can also deliver high-volume production results. -
1 Modeling and Optimization in Manufacturing by Hydroforming and Stamping
13 1 Modeling and Optimization in Manufacturing by Hydroforming and Stamping Hakim Naceur1 and Waseem Arif2 1Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France, CNRS, INSA Hauts-de-France, UMR 8201-LAMIH, F-59313 Valenciennes, France 2University of Gujrat, Mechanical Engineering Department, Gujrat, Pakistan 1.1 Introduction Due to the strict environmental policies and shortage of energy, the manufacturing industries are pressurized to cut down the raw material cost and to save energy. This is particularly true in the automotive industry, where manufacturers are obliged to develop advanced techniques to reduce the pollution by reducing the fuel con- sumption without significant increase in the cost. Among all the manufacturing techniques, the stamping and hydroforming methods hold a top position among the cold sheet metal forming processes due to the versatility of components that can be produced and high production rates [1]. Stamping and hydroforming processes are intensively used in various industrial sectors such as transportation, car body in white (Figure 1.1), household appliances, metal packaging, etc. The use of fluid pressure has been remarkably increased in sheet metal form- ing processes since it allows a superior final surface quality of the workpiece than standard deep drawing process [2–4]. In particular, sheet hydroforming process has great potential to manufacture body-in-white parts with consistently extreme level of ultimate tensile strength, reduced weight, geometrical accuracy, and minimum tol- erances. It has certain advantages, e.g. more uniform thickness distribution of the final workpiece component, lower tooling cost, and versatility to produce partswith different geometries using the same setup [5]. The worldwide acknowledgment of these two sheet metal forming processes is largely due to the external pressure from the government legislators to develop lightweight products. -

processes Review Methods Used for the Compaction and Molding of Ceramic Matrix Composites Reinforced with Carbon Nanotubes Valerii P. Meshalkin and Alexey V. Belyakov * Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia (MUCTR), 9 Miusskaya Square, 125047 Moscow, Russia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +7-495-4953866 Received: 2 August 2020; Accepted: 11 August 2020; Published: 18 August 2020 Abstract: Ceramic matrix composites reinforced with carbon nanotubes are becoming increasingly popular in industry due to their astonishing mechanical properties and taking into account the fact that advanced production technologies make carbon nanotubes increasingly affordable. In the present paper, the most convenient contemporary methods used for the compaction of molding masses composed of either technical ceramics or ceramic matrix composites reinforced with carbon nanotubes are surveyed. This stage that precedes debinding and sintering plays the key role in getting pore-free equal-density ceramics at the scale of mass production. The methods include: compaction in sealed and collector molds, cold isostatic and quasi-isostatic compaction; dynamic compaction methods, such as magnetic pulse, vibration, and ultrasonic compaction; extrusion, stamping, and injection; casting from aqueous and non-aqueous slips; tape and gel casting. Capabilities of mold-free approaches to produce precisely shaped ceramic bodies are also critically analyzed, including green ceramic machining and additive manufacturing technologies. Keywords: carbon nanotubes; ceramic matrix composites; compaction; molding; casting; powder mixtures; green bodies; plastic molding powders; slips; polymerizable monomers; solid freeform fabrication; machinery 1. Introduction Compaction molding is an important technological stage in the mass production of technical ceramics and ceramic matrix composites (hereinafter, CMCs). -

Belan1, Vladimir A. Nekit1,*, and Olga A. Belan1 1Nosov Magnitogorsk State Technical University, Lenin Street, 38, Magnitogorsk city, Chelyabinsk Region, Russian Federation, 455000 Abstract. The article is devoted to the theoretical study and development of the production process of manufacturing rod products with larger heads by transverse extrusion. For carrying out researches the elastic-plastic finite- element model based on the variation principle was chosen. This model, due to the development of a complex of boundary and initial conditions, has been adapted to the scheme of volume stamping of the fasteners and implemented in the form of a software package in the system DEFORM 3D.The paper presents the results of computer simulation of the technology of manufacturing the mortgage bolt 1 Introduction With the development of mechanical engineering, automotive and construction, there is a growing need for sophisticated modern fasteners which allows you to create strong, high- performance, reliable and durable connections.

Forming Methods
theartofpressbrake.com http://www.theartofpressbrake.com/wordpress/?page_id=1023 Forming Methods Bend Allowance, Outside Setback, Bend Deduction If you calculate these with precision, you have a better chance of bending a good part on the first try. But, to make this happen, you need to make sure every factor in the equation is what it should be, and this includes the inside bend radius . How exactly is this inside bend radius achieved? To uncover this, we must first look at the different methods of bending on a press brake: air forming, bottom bending, and coining. The Methods of bending There are three different types of bending methods used in the forming of sheet metal: “ air forming“, “Bottom Bending and “Coining. Each of these methods has a specific purpose and application. In this chapter the benefits and the inefficiencies of each will be discussed. Coining Note that there are three bending methods, not two. Bottom bending and coining often are confused for the same process, but they are not. Unlike bottoming, coining actually penetrates and thins the material. Coining is the oldest method and for the most part, no longer practiced. Why? Because of the extreme tonnages this method requires. An amount of tonnage so great that the material “flows” on a molecular level while under this extreme pressure. Coining forces the punch nose into the material, penetrating the neutral axis, figure 1. Technically, any radius may be coined, but traditionally, coining has been used to establish a dead-sharp bend. This method not only requires excessive tonnages, it also destroys the material’s integrity. -

Coining of Micro Structures with an Electromagnetically Driven Tool*
Coining of Micro Structures with an Electromagnetically Driven Tool* E. Uhlmann1, C. König1, A. Ziefle1, L. Prasol1 1 Institute for Machine Tools and Factory Management, TU Berlin, Germany Abstract For coining micro structures into high-grade steel 1.4301 a highly dynamic tool system based on a pulsed magnetic field inside a cylindrical coil was developed. Two kinds of structures were coined at different tool velocities. The coining results were evaluated regarding geometrical accuracy, material flow behaviour and energy input. In addition the high velocity process was compared to a quasi-static process. By increasing the coining velocity to 30 m/s the accuracy of the quasi-static process can be reached. The energy that is needed for reaching a similar result is less for coining at high velocities. The tool velocity also influences the flow behaviour of the workpiece material. Keywords High speed forming, Impact, Coining 1 Introduction Complexity and variety of micro components in electronics, precision engineering, micro system technology and medical engineering increase constantly. At the same time the number of applications of such components is rising. Production processes have to meet the requirements of these tendencies and must be suitable for mass production.
