| Abstract Scope |
Modern car body design includes parts with sharp-edged elements, which are challenging for conventional sheet metal forming technologies. Applying high strain rates allows increasing formability for numerous materials including typical aluminium alloys used in the automotive industry. Therefore, integrating high-speed forming into a conventional process can help to extend forming limits. The feasibility of locally sharpening a deep-drawn radius by integrated electromagnetic forming was proved in literature, but up to now only target radii one magnitude bigger compared to the sheet thickness were regarded. The presented paper shows that also target radii in and below the size of the sheet thickness are possible by this process combination. Based on a simplified 2D-component geometry, complementary experimental and numerical investigations served for developing different variants of a modular test tool and analyzing the influence of important process and tool parameters on the forming result. |
