The machines of WF Maschinenbau process metal blanks into various workpieces using so-called flow-forming processes. The quality of these workpieces depends largely on the quality of the blanks and ...

The method of obtaining blanks is linked to the flow-forming process. Tapered flow-forming uses cut or sheared blanks from rolled sheet metal. Pre-forming becomes necessary to obtain cones with a very ...

Widely used in the automobile industry for the manufacture of aluminum rims or in aeronautics for the manufacture of large stainless-steel parts, flow-forming is a highly interesting technique for the ...

This paper deals with micromagnetic measurements for online detection of strain-induced α’-martensite during plastic deformation of metastable austenitic steel AISI 304L. The operating principles of ...

ABSTRACT: A commercially available laser marking system based on diode-pumped Nd:YVO4 laser was used for creating grid patterns for forming strain analysis of a dual-phase steel. The aim was to ...
