Aim of the course

The aim of the course is to familiarize students with mechanisms of plastic deformation, with types of metal forming, with features of materials, semi-finished products and products made with the use of metal forming methods, with machines and appliances used for shaping products as well as with practical examples of using of metal forming.

Prerequisites

Strength of Materials, Technical mechanics, Engineering Graphics and Fundamentals of Engineering Design, Mechanics and Strength of Materials, 

 

Scope

The content of the lecture:

Fundamentals of plastic flowing of isotropic bodies. Mechanism of plastic deformation. Phenomena accompanying plastic deformations. Factors affected on the value of yield stress. Separation of deforming material. Cold working. Hot working. Semi-hot working. Rolling: shaping metal sheets and flat materials. Methods of sheet metal forming: cutting, blending, shaping products with non-developable shape. Processes of drawing down solids: broaching, upsetting, hobbing, shaping in dies, burnishing and die forging. Examples of correct and incorrect structure of elements shaped with metal forming methods. Mechanical properties of deformed materials. Calculations: forces, stresses, deformations, etc., Machines and appliances used in metal forming.

The content of the laboratory:

Mechanical presses construction. Mechanism of changing stroke of eccentric presses. Setting and fastening of tools on presses and hammers. Deformation of metals and alloys – changing of crystallographic structure and mechanical features of deformed materials. Cutting in machines on presses – determining basic technological cutting parameters. Assessment of metal sheets usability for pressing process. Bending processes - determining of springing angle. Rolling – rolling reduction. Upsetting – determining of limiting deformation factor during upsetting, influence of heat treatment on upsetting. Structure of forging hammers – determining of impact energy of drop forging hammer. Open die forging – determining of temperature range of hot working. Direct extrusion of sleeves in cold working.
