Round Shape Rib Forming by Roll Forming Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

Roll forming process, due to increased product performance, higher quality, and lower cost with other advantages, has been made suitable process to form any shapes in the sheets. In this paper stress, strain and thickness distribution in the steel galvanized hot coil commercial (SGHC) sheet with Round shape ribs formed by roll forming process was investigated by a Finite Element code, ABAQUS software. The stress and strain distributions are considered during forming. Since in round shape ribs the flow of material is easier than quadrilateral one, the Stress distribution was more uniformand thinning strain was concentrated in the ribs with maximum value of 14.5% while this value in quadrilateral shape rib forming is 15.5%. The results show that this method is applicable in reducing the thickness strain.
