Abstract:

In present study, spinning process of clad sheets composed of Copper and Stainless steel 304L is investigated experimentally. To achieve the Copper-Steel 304L clad sheet the explosive welding method is used. In order to smooth the surface of clad sheets, a cold roll forming process was carried out. The clad sheets were heat treated to improve the metallurgical bounding and formability. The mechanical properties of copper-steel clad sheet were obtained by experimental measurements. Spinning process was performed on Copper-steel 304L clad sheets with internal layer of copper and external layer of steel. Different experimental tests are carried out to investigate the effects of some influential parameters including the tool path and the tool materials on formability of the clad sheets. Moreover, corresponding numerical simulations were made to verify the experimental values. Finally comparison of thickness strain distribution of a perfect product sample shows a reasonable agreement between numerical and experimental data.
