Metal forming encompasses a suite of processes—including rolling, extrusion, forging, drawing, spinning and flow forming—that impart shape, dimensional precision and tailored microstructure to ...

Friction behaviour in sheet metal forming encompasses the interaction between the deforming sheet and tool surfaces, critically influencing material flow, tool wear, energy consumption and final ...

In the global sheet metal forming and industrial machinery sector, Tianjin Wujia CNC Machine Tool Co., Ltd. has been increasingly recognized by industry observers as a notable participant in the ...

What causes failure in dies and tooling? It’s a function of tool material selection, one expert advised. Metal forming is critical to industrial operations supplying automotive parts and structural ...

In order to improve the forming quality, it is vital to understand the mechanisms that cause the plastic strain localization which eventually leads to ductile damage occurrence in the incremental ...

Here’s a quick overview of different PM processes that can be found at Metal Powder Industries Federation's site, www.mpif.org (select Intro to PM and then processes). For an in-depth discussion of ...

Deformation processes transform solid materials from one shape into another. The initial shape is usually simple (e.g., a billet or sheet blank) and is plastically deformed between tools, or dies, to ...

There is a high chance that specific shapes and mechanical properties are required when sourcing an alloy product for an industrial, medical, or consumer application. This is where cold working ...

In the production of metal wheels using the flow-forming process, it is necessary to check the thickness distribution on the ...
