The DIKUQ project has developed a semi-automated process chain for forming steel sheets for shipbuilding. Fraunhofer IOF ...

Short cycle times and automated methods are key to meeting the high production rates being sought for the next generation of narrowbody commercial aircraft, advanced air mobility (AAM), unmanned ...

Typically, when we think about forming metal parts, we think about beating them with hammers, or squeezing them with big hydraulic presses. But what if magnets could do the squeezing? As it turns ...

Electromagnetic Forming; Field Concentrator; Finite Element Modeling; Tube Expansion. In this paper, we introduce and extensively delve into the intricate details of our numerical investigation and ...

As spinning process continues to iterate and advance, an increasing number of tube parts are being formed by spinning process, encompassing both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Concurrently, composite ...

In order to improve the forming quality, it is vital to understand the mechanisms that cause the plastic strain localization which eventually leads to ductile damage occurrence in the incremental ...

Abstract: Electromagnetic forming (EMF) is a high-speed process that uses pulsed electromagnetic force to drive metal forming. The impact velocity significantly affects the deformation behavior of the ...
