Description
Sustainable production by a defined usage and thus saving of materials along the product development process is one central aspect to reduce emissions and contribute to climate protection. Improving the material efficiency can be realized by the application of process adapted semi-finished parts, so called tailored blanks which can for example be manufac-tured an orbital forming process. In this context, the central objective of this work is the fundamental scientific investigation of an orbital forming process for manufacturing tailored blanks with defined part properties out of steel materials with different strength. To achieve the set objective, the fundamental causeeffect relationships as well as the influence on the resulting part properties will be identified on the basis of the main process parameters. Based on these results, process limits will be identified and a methodology will be derived which enables a defined adjustment of the part properties. This methodology will be validated by additional experiments in order to verify made statements regarding the generalization of the findings. Overall, this leads to a broad and deeper process understanding regarding the influence of different process parameters on the properties of orbital formed tailored blanks out of various steels. This enables the realization of defined properties specifically adapted for their field of application and in the end an improved material efficiency and saving of resources.
