Fundamentals on the miniaturization of sheet metal working processes.

Cooper sheet metal forming ch. For example thin metal foils are being used in microelectromechanical systems electronic components and medical devices. Sheet metal work stock used for sheet metal processes is usually formed by rolling and comes in coils. Sheet metal refers to metal that has a high surface area to volume ratio.

Introduction to sheet metal forming processes. Sheet metal forming basics. The simplified die addendum. A further material phenomenon which occurs in sheet metal working processes is the influence of the sheet anisotropy on the process.

9 boothroyd dewhurst and knight. Sheet metal forming involves a wide range of processes that manufacture parts for a vast amount of purposes both seen and unseen. Ongoing miniaturization in various technical fields such as the electronics industry or micro systems technology requires precise forming processes for the production of small and thin components. The effect of the anisotropy in micro sheet metal blanking processes has been investigated in connection with the production of lead frames.

Miniaturization of sheet metal working processes causes changes in the relative contribution of relevant process parameters. 2002 john wiley sons inc. As a result so called second order size effects occur. The hinges that connect doors to walls and cabinets consist of sheet metal which is cut to shape and punched with holes that are fitted to fasteners.

As a result so called second order size effects occur. Such basic features can be summarized as. Groover fundamentals of modern manufacturing 2 e strain rate sensitivity theoretically a metal in hot working behaves like a perfectly plastic material with strain hardening exponent n 0 the metal should continue to flow at the same flow stress once that stress is reached. The processes of metal fabrication are more clearly pronounced on fold up chairs which feature bars and panels made of cut and folded metals.

Sheet metal forming 2 810 d. The process of folding is employed at the. Basic geometry feature of the dieface although an actual dieface is a rather complicated system of surfaces some basic geometry features can be identified. Miniaturization of sheet metal working processes causes changes in the relative contribution of relevant process parameters.
