I²FG / PAK 343 Impulse Forming Workshop 2015
Permanent URI for this collection
The objective of the workshop is to bring together experts in order to present new research findings and discuss the different perspectives of future developments with respect to the technologies. It is an important forum for the exchange of knowledge and networking with the leading experts.
Impulse forming or high velocity forming includes all processes converting stored energy in order to form workpieces in a very short time. Electromagnetic pulse forming, joining and cutting. This technology includes all production processes using the energy pulsed of magnetic fields to deform a workpiece made of an electrically highly conductive material. The following major process variants can be distinguished:
