Experimental Method for Determining Forces at Bending of Perforated Plates
2017
Abstract This paper describes the method of calculating the forces which appear at the bending of perforated plates with holes of different shapes and placed in different patterns, by means of a dynamometric table which uses resistive tensometric transducers (strain gauges). It also describes an instrument for the recording of data from the dynamometric table, a tool created with the aid of the “TestPoint” software which, beneath the data recording, ensures the filtering and statistic processing of data. The obtained results are displayed in comparative graphs for six types of perforated plates, as well as for an unperforated plate.
Experimental studies on uniaxial and echibiaxial tensile tests applied to plastic materials sheets
2019
Abstract The main objective of this paper is to determine the behavior of few plastic materials using two different type of tests. We use classical uniaxial tensile test to determine the most important mechanical and elastic characteristics, such as: yield stress, Young modulus, tangent modulus, maximum stress and maximum strain and to plot engineering stress vs. engineering strain curve for these materials. The second test, that was used in this study, was echibiaxial tensile test on the spherical punch. This test was used to determine maximum breaking force and, of course maximum displacement of specimen on punch direction and others few important characteristics, such as: major and minor…

Key factors towards a high-quality additive manufacturing process with ABS material
2019
Abstract Additive Manufacturing technologies have gained a lot of popularity during the past years. The current challenge being the transition of this manufacturing technology from prototype oriented towards mass production. In order to achieve this, fabrication times and mechanical parameters must be improved. This paper aims to identify which are the parameters that have the highest influence on parts obtained with fused deposition modeling (FDM) technology from ABS material. In addition, this study identifies which are the most accurate methods to test the mechanical properties of FDM parts while still respecting ASTM standard for testing the tensile properties of plastics. It was found …
Theoretical and Experimental Studies on the Influence of Process Parameters on Strains and Forces of Single Point Incremental Forming
2014
These paper aims to determine the influence of the most important geometrical parameters (vertical step and punch diameter) on the main strains, thickness reduction and the forces along two directions during the single point incremental forming process (SPIF). The paper comprises a comparative numericalexperimental study, for a simple geometry part obtained by incremental forming. In fact, in the first stage, the punch has a vertical motion with the value of one vertical step. In the second stage, the punch follows a linear trajectory along one side of the die. After each linear trajectory the punch has successive vertical motions, taking one vertical step at a time until the entire geometr…
Experimental Determining of Mechanical and Elastic Characteristics for the Material Used in the Manufacturing of Cardan Crosses
2014
The paper presents in its first part the need for analysing the functioning of the cardan cross within the cardan transmission, both from the point of view of shape and from the point of view of the material. In the second part there are described the main elements for analysing the test samples, the employed testing machine, as well as the manner of processing the obtained information. The last part contains the conclusions resulted from this analysis..
Comparative Study for Springback Prediction on Single Point Incremental Forming Process
2014
The present paper proposes a comparative study in order to determine the springback in single point incremental forming process. Using the Ls-Dyna software the process was simulated for one piece in frustum of pyramid shape. In the end of the explicit dynamic analysis, it was run, using the same software, an implicit analysis to determine the springback. For this comparison study we selected four different shell formulations. The results obtained in this simulation were compared with those obtained experimentally for the same part. The experimental research was conducted on a robot and, on the opposite side of the machined surface, an Aramis measuring optical system was placed to allow the …
Inverse Analysis Used to Determine Plastic Flow and Tribological Characteristics for Deep-drawing Sheet
2014
Abstract The present paper aims to develop a simple method based on inverse analysis that allows us to determine the laws of plastic flow coefficients and the friction coefficient between the material and punch. Selecting from different types of tests, we have chosen the Hecker test, because this test requires a single form of punch, the hemispherical one. In this test, the friction between the punch and the blank-sheet is caused by the blank-sheet strains and not by the movement it makes (as in deep drawing case). Besides the friction coefficient, other parameters like hardening and strength coefficients (n and k), influence the distribution of stresses and strains in the material. Using t…
Optical study for springback prediction, thickness reduction and forces variations on single point incremental forming
2019
Abstract The goal of the present work is to present an experimental study regarding the influence of the main technological influence factors such as the vertical step and the punch diameter on the single point incremental forming process (SPIF). In this paper we estimate the influence of these two factors on springback, thickness reduction and forces. Both parameters were varied on two levels: (d) punch diameter 6 and 10 mm and (s) vertical step 0,1 and 0,5 mm. The experiments were done on experimental layout composed by a robot, a clamping system that contains the die’s lower part and the optical system.
Experimental Study Regarding of Bending Behaviour of Stabilizator Link
2016
Abstract This paper presents an experimental study of the behavior of anti-roll power link subjected to bending, power link coming from an Opel Astra G. The power link is made of PA66 GF30 polyamide. For this study, there were used a universal testing machine (Instron 5587) and a real-time strain measurement optical system (Aramis). The results showed are those obtained in the case of a compression force of 1,000 [N] namely: major Strain ε1, minor strain ε2, equivalent von Mises strain, displacement on X axis, displacement on Y axis (compression force direction), displacement on Z axis.
