Lesson 1 Position of metal forming in modern industry 金属成形在现代工业中的地位

Metal forming is one of the fundamental manufacturing process. It plays an important part in metallurgy冶金, machine building机械制造, power电力, autobile汽车, railroad, aerospace航空, ship-building, weapon, chemical化工, e lectronics电子, instrument and meter making仪器和仪表制造and light industries 轻工业.

金属成形是材料的塑性加工过程。在金属成形工艺中，最初的简单零件, 坯料或板料通过在模具之间变形而获得所需零件的最终形状。由于模具具有所需零件的几何形状，通过模具内表面对变形材料施压，简单形状的零件就会变成复杂形状的零件。金属成形很少产生废料甚至不产生废料，并且往往在很短时间内（即压力机或锻锤的一次或几次行程中）形成产品形状。因此，金属成形可节能省材。特别是在大中批量生产时，模具成本容易收回。另外，对于给定重量的零件，用金属成形加工比用铸造和切削加工生产具有更好的力学性能、冶金性能和可靠性。

Lesson 2 Classification of Metal Forming Processes

Nearly all mental forming processes involve the workpiece being subjecte d to complex stress states(处于复杂应力状态下)which can vary from, say triaxi al compression(三向压应力) to biaxial tension(两向拉应力). However, shear str esses(剪切应力) need not be considered unless they constitute(构成) major str esses to which the workpiece is subjected and are thus influential in contrib uting to plastic deformation. Most of the complex stress states can be approx imated(近似) by their principal stress components(主应力),that is, by the nor

t.

Squeezing group（压缩类）in which the workpiece is subjected principally to a compressive stress state（压应力状态）.The processes in this group norm ally involve bulk plastic deformation（大塑性变形）producing considerable cha nge in the shape of the workpiece（形状发生显著变化）.They include forging ( upsetting顶锻, closed die forging闭式模锻and coining 压印), forward and back ward extrusion（正反挤压）, rolling滚压, swaging（型锻, 模锻）, spin forging 旋锻and rotary forging摆动辗压.

Drawing group in which the workpiece is subjected principally to a tensi le stress（拉应力）state; thus pulling instead of pushing（后置定语）is谓语im plied.The processes in this group are generally limited（通常受限）in the ext ent of plastic deformation（塑性变形量）of the workpiece which（定语从句）can be achieved in a operation（单次操作所能达到的）and are therefore（因此）res tricted to changes in shape of the workpiece rather than changes in thickness. The workpiece is thus usually in the form of metal sheet金属片, plate or thi n walled tubing薄壁管. This group includes sheet, wire and bar drawing, tube drawing管材拉拔, the deep drawing深拉延of cylindrical cup筒形杯and box shapes 盒形件and stretch forming.

Bending group in which （修辞group）the workpiece is subjected to couple s力偶thereby including（修辞group）tensile stresses拉应力on one side of the workpiece and compressive stress压应力on the other with a stress gradient thr oughout应力梯度 the thickness of the workpiece.This group（主语）of processes are （谓语）again restricted to change of shape rather than 两者相比较change in thickness and include （谓语）straight flanging直翻边, stretch flanging ( concave flanges)拉伸翻边（凹板翻边）, shrink flanging (convex flanges)收缩翻边（凸板翻边）and the seaming卷边of sheet or plate.

Cutting group are those processes which either separate excess metal fro m the workpiece in a single operation单次操作 or by incremental（增量，逐步）metal removal.The first category are shearing processes剪切工艺such as bar cr opping棒料剪切, and piercing冲孔and blanking落料of sheet mental金属板which ar e regarded as chipless forming processes 无屑成形工艺. The second category ar e chip forming有屑成形and include the conventional传统machining processes机加工工艺 such as turning车, drilling钻, milling铣, grinding磨, sawing锯, broach ing拉削and shaving刨削.
