Application of 3D (color) printing for the visualization and optimization of complex metal forming processes

  • The present-day methods of numerical simulation offer a great variety of options for optimizing metal forming processes. Although it is possible to simulate complex forming processes, the results are typically available only as 2D projections on screens. Some forming processes have reached a level of complexity beyond the level of spatial sense, which makes it necessary to use physical 3DThe present-day methods of numerical simulation offer a great variety of options for optimizing metal forming processes. Although it is possible to simulate complex forming processes, the results are typically available only as 2D projections on screens. Some forming processes have reached a level of complexity beyond the level of spatial sense, which makes it necessary to use physical 3D representations to develop a deeper understanding of the material flow, microstructural processes, process and design limits, or to design the required tooling. Physical 3D models can be produced in a short amount of time using 3D printing, and indexed with a wide range of colors. In this paper, the additive manufacturing of 3D color models based on simulation results are explored by means of examples from metal forming. Different 3D-printing processes are compared on the basis of quality as well as technical and economic criteria. Other examples from the fields joining by upset-bulging of tubes and microstructure simulation are also analyzed. This paper discusses the possibilities offered by the rapid progress and wide availability of 3D printers for the design and optimization of complex metal forming processes.show moreshow less
