Definitions
- the invention relates to the forming or forging of large dimensions, in particular of large thickness. More particularly it relates to a press for forming thick parts comprising a frame supporting two dies and actuating means for clamping the workpiece to be formed between these two dies so that they follow the shape. It also relates to a method of forming a large part, particularly a large thickness by means of such a press.
- One currently known technique for putting a part in shape consists in inserting it between two dies and then deforming it so that the part matches the shape of this matrix to obtain a desired geometry.
- This proven technique has the effect of generating stresses in the room, even micro-cracks, which can cause accelerated aging.
- the possibilities of deformation are limited by the characteristics of the material since it must be placed in the plastic field thereof, without reaching the break.
- the geometry obtained is difficult to master and requires a great deal of experience.
- Another currently known technique is to send shocks generated by a laser to the surface of the room. Very short pulses and high energy hit the surface of the room. The energy of the laser is absorbed by the material to a very small thickness. The affected area is then transformed into a plasma whose trigger generates a shock wave in the material. This wave can be used to harden the surface of the material or deform it if the energy is sufficient. The shortness of the impulse means that there is no heat transfer.
- This method is more flexible than the previous one in that it is not necessary to manufacture a template for each piece to be formed. It is more precise insofar as each pulse generates only a minimal deformation. On the other hand, it is slower.
- the laser energy is thus distributed and punctually less important than that of a laser focused on a point. She can not claim to put the piece in shape alone.
- a heating laser can deform a room to the extent that a heat input, whatever its origin, can deform a room. Nevertheless, the deformations are not very predictable, except to be realized between templates. AT the extreme, such a method can lead to melt the material which can then be shaped by a mold.
- the first method makes it possible to increase the possibilities of deformation of the part but is not suitable for forming parts of great thickness. Indeed, the hydroforming applies only to hollow bodies (tubes) or plates whose thickness does not exceed 3mm.
- the second method is also not suitable for shaping thick parts.
- the invention relates to a press and a method that overcomes the drawbacks of the prior art.
- the frame supports at least one pulsed laser to generate localized impacts of high energy on the surface of the part.
- press forming makes it possible to approach the desired shape very quickly while the laser makes it possible to ensure its finishing in a very precise manner.
- the laser operates in pulse shock mode without heat transfer, so without adding residual stresses.
- Impulse shocks alone can modify the shape of the part according to a pre-established and repeatable geometry.
- the press and the laser can be used consecutively or, preferably, simultaneously.
- the press must have at least one passage formed in one of the dies to allow the passage of high energy laser pulses through the matrix.
- the simultaneous use of the laser and the press makes it possible to use a press of smaller size, with equal capacity or even, with equal dimension, increases the capacities of the press without having to move the workpiece.
- the tools used can be simplified.
- the dies can be replaced by simple formatting tools placed at the end of cylinders that press the part to be shaped.
- a thick forming part 2 is placed between a lower die 4 and an upper die 6.
- the dies 4 and 6 are brought closer to each other by actuating means such as jacks 8.
- the piece 2 deforms so as to match the shape of the matrices 4 and 6.
- this technique has the effect of generating stresses in the room, which can be translate by the appearance of micro-cracks.
- the possibilities of deformation are limited and the geometry obtained is difficult to control.
- a part to be formed designated in its initial state by the reference 2a, comprises an upper surface 10 and a lower surface 12 (according to FIG. 2) whose surface 10 receives impacts, represented diagrammatically by the arrows 14, emitted by a laser 16.
- These pulses are localized, very short and of high energy. Typically their duration is a few tens of nanoseconds, and their energy some GW / cm2.
- the energy of the laser 16 is absorbed by the material to a very small thickness.
- the area involved is transformed into a plasma whose trigger generates a shock wave in the material. This wave can be used to harden the surface of the material or deform it if the energy is sufficient.
- the shortness of the impulse means that there is no heat transfer.
- index b the part in its final state.
- the surface 10, directed towards the laser beam 14, has a concave shape while the surface 12, located opposite the laser beam has a convex shape.
- complex shapes can also be obtained.
- This laser forming method is described, in particular, in the articles “Convex laser forming with high certainty” (Wenchuan I and Y. Lawrence Yao, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Columbia University, New York, NY 10 027) and “Optimal and robust design of laser forming process "(Chao Liu and Y. Lawrence Yao, Department of Mechanical Engineering at Columbia University New York, NY 10 027).
- This technique is more flexible than the mechanical deformation process described with reference to Figure 1 in that it is not necessary to manufacture a template for each room or each type of room to be treated. It is also more accurate insofar as each pulse generates only a minimal deformation. On the other hand, it is less fast. As a result, it is not suitable for mass production of parts.
- the laser 16 comprises a frame 3, a lower die 4 and an upper die 6 and a laser 16 emitting a beam 14 mounted on the frame 3.
- the laser 16 may be of solid type (based on neodymium, Yttrium, Itherbium, etc.) or dyes with a frequency of the order of 1Khz. Both techniques can be used consecutively. In this case, the mechanical deformation forming process is used first to quickly obtain a blank of the workpiece. Then the finish to obtain precise dimensions is achieved by the laser forming process. This second means is used to obtain an extremely precise form. It does not induce heat transfer in the room.
- both techniques are used simultaneously.
- at least one of the matrices 4 and 6 has a passage opening 18 for the laser beam 14. This passage has been symbolized in FIG. 3 by an opening 18 in the upper die 4.
- the passage of Laser beam can be obtained by any method, for example by optical fibers or by mirrors for directing the pulses to precisely selected areas of the workpiece 2.
- the part 2 can undergo heating so as to reduce the stresses induced by the shaping.
- the piece thus formed can then gain in life.
- This heating can be induced by a conventional means or by laser if it is desired a very localized heating.
- the laser working in thermal regime, designated by the reference 20, is not the same as that which generates the shocks. The characteristics of these lasers are different.
- the combination of the two techniques makes it possible, thanks to the laser 16, to reduce the capacity of the press to be used. Similarly, the tools used can be simplified.
- the matrices 4 and 6 can be replaced by simple formatting tools placed at the end of jacks that press the part 2.
