Abstract:During multi-pass conventional spinning, roller paths combined with the forward and the backward pass are usually used to improve the material formability. In order to understand the backward spinning process properly, the backward roller paths of hemispherical parts with aluminum alloy 2024-O are analyzed. Finite element model with parameterized conventional spinning roller paths, which are based on quadratic Bezier curves, is developed to explore the evolution of the stress, strain and thinning during the backward processes. Analysis of the simulation results reveals stress and strain features of backward pass spinning. According to the findings, the application of the backward pass can obviously improve the uniformity of wall thickness. Furthermore, references of the parameters in future backward path design are provided.
Key words: conventional spinning; multi-pass forming; roller path design; backward pass
