When spinning various thin-walled cross-section products, the main purpose of spinning is to change the shape of the slab, and the thickness of the slab changes little. This type of spinning is called ordinary spinning. The basic methods of ordinary spinning are: deep drawing spinning (drawing spinning), shrinking spinning (shrinking spinning) and expansion spinning (expanding spinning). What Is Deep drawing spinning Drawing spinning is a forming process that uses radial drawing as the main body to reduce the diameter of the blank (sheet or prefabricated part). It can also be said that it is similar to deep drawing, but it uses a core mold instead of a punch, and a spinning wheel instead of a die. It is the most Read more

Spinning is a process method that uses a tool to continuously apply pressure to a very small part of the workpiece to gradually shape it. Spinning deformation is a local progressive deformation, and its progressiveness is similar to swing rolling. According to the deformation characteristics of spinning, the spinning process can be divided into two categories: ordinary spinning and high-power spinning [1]. Using software to simulate the high-power spinning process can clearly obtain the required data and effectively prevent defects in actual production. Software modeling and simulation  In this paper, the metal forming software Simufact is used to simulate the high-power spinning process. The simulation process ignores the influence of gravity and metal inclusions, and ignores the influence of temperature Read more
