description

Abstract In the paper the authors present the results of several experimental tests aimed to determine the Coulomb friction coefficient in sheet metal forming operations at the varying of the sheet metal material and for different operative conditions. In particular a few pressure and lubricating conditions have been investigated. In order to develop such experiments a dedicated fixture was designed and set-up starting from the one proposed by Wilson.
