Measurement of Twist Springback on AA6061-T6 Aluminum Alloy Strip - A Preliminary Result

Abstract:

Twist forming is one of a critical process in a sheet metal forming process that has a complex profile. There are a few parameters that need to be taken into consideration, such as twist angle, workpiece geometries including length, width and thickness and material properties of the workpiece material. In this study, the preliminary result of the twist forming behavior of an aluminum alloy strip with uniform section will be studied. The experiment is conducted using torsion test machine. At this stage, the torque pattern was studied and compared with the published work to validate the experiment test rig. The result showed an agreement with the published work.
