چکیده
Abstract. Incremental sheet metal forming (ISMF) is a viable method for fabricating complicated three-dimensional structures from metal. It characterized by localized deformation and effective both rapid prototyping low-volume manufacturing. ISMF technology suitable quick product development time with affordable tooling deforming difficult-to-form materials. Simulation of the process reduces costly hit-and-trial attempts manufacturing an accurate product. This article presents simulation producing U-channel made aluminum (Al 6061-T6) titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloys. A finite element (FEM) package, ABAQUS®, has been used using shell elements. The effect various parameters on forces discussed two different tools, flat hemispherical-end.

Process Simulation for Optimizing Superplastic Forming of Sheet Metal
Superplastic forming (SPF) is conducted in a heated, pressurized die where direct monitoring of critical SPF parameters is extremely difficult. Numerical models provide a critical means of tracking the forming process, allowing the applied gas pressure to be adjusted to maintain optimum SPF behavior throughout the forming process. This paper describes how the MARC finite element code was used t...
متن کاملPrediction of Instability in Planar Anisotropic Sheet Metal Forming Processes
In this paper instability of planar anisotropic sheet metal during a few forming processes is investigated for the first time. For this reason components of the constitutive tangent tensor for planar anisotropic sheets are developed. By using the above tensor location of necking is predicted. Direction of the shear band is also predicted using the acoustic tensor. A finite element program is pr...

متن کاملForming of Multi layer Sheet Metal by Drawing Process: an Analysis and FEM Simulation
In this paper, the drawing process of multi-layer sheet metal through wedge shaped die has been analyzed using stream function and upper bound method. Typically a sandwich sheet contains three layers of metal, where the outer layers are of the same thickness and material and different from those of the inner layer. In this study, a new deformation model has been introduced in which inlet and ou...
متن کاملThe Effects of Forming Parameters on the Single Point Incremental Forming of 1050 Aluminum Alloy Sheet
The single point incremental forming (SPIF) is one of the dieless forming processes which is widely used in the sheet metal forming. The correct selection of the SPIF parameters influences the formability and quality of the product. In the present study, the Gurson-Tvergaard Needleman (GTN) damage model was used for the fracture prediction in the numerical simulation of the SPIF process of alum...
