Study on Rubber-Pad Formation for Sheet Metal

Abstract:

This article introduces four rubber-pad formation techniques for the pressing and drawing of components from thin sheet metals. The Guerin process is the simplest technique of rubber formation, which enables the production of shallow sheet metal parts with complex contours and bends. Free formation is another technique used to draw near-hemispherical shells using a rubber medium. Different bending processes can also be conducted using a rubber pad as a flexible die. Multipoint formation is applied to form complex three-dimensional sheet metal parts with discrete dies and rubber cushions. The fundamentals of these techniques as well as the influence of process parameters on the results are investigated in this paper
