Conceptual design of multipurpose forming machine and experiments on force-controlled shear spinning of truncated cone

摘要

The ultimate purpose of ongoing investigations is to clarify the similarities and differences of the deformation behavior between the metal spinning and the incremental sheet forming processes. With this research, we primarily aimed to develop and test an effective forming machine on which we can perform the dual task of metal spinning and incremental sheet forming processes to facilitate the proposed comparisons vigorously in the future. The conceptual design of the proposed machine has been decided after comprehensive comparisons between the two processes. The intended utility has been experimentally tested on shear spinning of truncated cone using position/force control.
