Investigation on flow forming behaviour Of deep drawn aluminium alloy under Non isothermal conditions

Abstract

quotMetal forming has gained much prominence in manufacturing industries in the newlinerecent times. In sheet metal forming design, the enormous number of factors viz., newlineMaterial quality, machine parameters including tool and die geometry, work piece newlinegeometry, and working conditions are involved and interrelated. The cracks in the newlinegenerated component are unpreventable output and often lower the component newlinequality, diminishes the product life and acceptability of the product. Total elimination newlineof failures during deep drawing process is a trivial task; however, with proper newlineselection of material, process parameters, failures can be curtailed. For selection of newlinebest alternative of aluminum alloy material, few of the Multi Attribute Decision newlineMaking (MADM) methods are utilized in the current work and based on rank wise newlinepreference Al6061-T6 material is obtained as the best choice.quot newline newline
