Formability Analyses on Single Point Incremental Sheet Forming Process on Aluminum 1050

Article Preview

Abstract:

In recent years, there is a lot of demand on metal forming processes in which sheet metal forming process has lots of applications in the automotive and aerospace industries. In sheet metal forming operations, incremental forming is an emerging technology in which, single point incremental forming (SPIF) process is die-less in incremental forming process and providing a competitive alternative to economical and effective in fabricating low volume products. The objective of this work is to analyze the forming analysis on truncated pyramid product by avoiding cracking and maintaining the optimum forming conditions. The formability is analyzed by using ABAQUS software and simulation, different process parameters were varied such as sheet thickness, tool diameter, step depth, spindle rotational speed on aluminum AA1050 alloy. From the simulation results, stress stain and stain distribution were evaluated on the deformed sheet. The product produced is truncated pyramid dimension having square base of side and fillet at corner.
