Definitions
- the present invention relates to an assembly for press forming a deformable material and a method that may employ such an assembly. More particularly, the invention provides an assembly for press forming a deformable material that includes an opposing pair of die arrays, each die array having a complementary profile determined by a desired final configuration of the formed material.
- the method which may advantageously make use of the assembly of the invention, typically ensures that the deformable material is gradually deformed to provide the desired final configuration. More particularly, the method generally aims to deliver pressure to the deformable material along a processing length of the material such that the material is continuously deformed through the processing length.
- the invention relates to an assembly for press forming a deformable material that includes a single die array and a complementary second die, which does not necessarily take the form of a die array. Methods employing such an assembly are also provided. Still further, the invention relates to a die set for use in an assembly for press forming a deformable material and a method of fabricating such a die set.
- roll forming includes passing a continuous sheet 20 through a series of spaced roll sets 21a through 21f. Each roll set 21 progressively deforms the sheet 20 to the desired final profile 22. Each roll set 21 includes at least one upper roll 23a through 23f, and at least one lower roll 24a through 24f. In some instances, side rolls 25 may also be provided, depending on the desired final profile 22.
- the rolls 23, 24 and 25 are designed such that the sheet of material 20 is progressively deformed to the final profile 22.
- the roll sets 21 In order to achieve this deformation, the roll sets 21 must be spaced at predetermined distances to facilitate sufficient deformation and relaxation between the roll sets 21. This disadvantageously results in wasted deformation energy.
- the roll forming process inherently involves strain path differences due to unnecessary axial bending and stretching between each roll set 21. Axial plastic bending and stretching lead to product defects as shown in Figures 3A through 3D. These defects include so-called edge wave (Figure 3A), flare (Figure 3B), sweep or camber (Figure 3C) and twist (Figure 3D).
- Roll forming also has disadvantages in that the surface of the sheet of material being formed is placed under stresses due to stretching of the material. In the case of a coated metal, for example, this may have deleterious effects on the quality of the surface finish.
- Roll forming has another disadvantage in that the distance between the first roll set 21a and the last roll set, in this case 21f, is relatively large. As a result, the space needed to house a roll forming assembly is substantial, particularly when forming of complex profiles is required. Moreover, a specific set up of roll sets 21 is required for each desired final profile 22. Consequently, it is not a simple process to set up a roll forming assembly, nor is it possible to simply exchange roll sets 21 to produce a different final profile 22.
- German Offenlegungsschrift No. 2 423 279 describes a press forming assembly that includes an upper die and a lower die.
- Each of the upper and lower dies has a profile extending longitudinally along the length of the dies, the profiles of the upper and lower dies being complementary and designed to produce a desired final profile. More particularly, the profiles of the upper and lower dies are such that a sheet of deformable material, generally metal, fed to the assembly is progressively deformed along the longitudinal length of the sheet of material.
- Deformation of the sheet of material is achieved by pressing the upper and lower dies together, for example using an eccentric cam (illustrated in Figure 19 of this document), or using pivoting arms attached to the sides of the upper and lower dies (illustrated in Figure 28 of this document).
- European Patent No. 0 384 287 describes an assembly that includes upper and lower dies that are designed to progressively deform a sheet of material by pressing the dies together using an eccentric cam.
- the upper and lower dies engage and disengage the sheet material to be deformed along a processing length.
- the sheet is engaged, having been displaced horizontally through the upper and lower die set during the disengagement operation, the sheet is progressively deformed to the final profile.
- the present invention aims to provide an alternative press forming assembly and method to those described above.
- the assembly and method of the invention advantageously avoid or alleviate problems associated with unnecessary deformation of the deformable material that may be observed during disengagement of the material during processing.
- the invention also aims to provide a method of fabricating a die set suitable for use in such an assembly and method.
- an assembly for press forming a deformable material including: a first die array including a plurality of dies, the first die array defining a first die profile; a second die array that is complementary with the first die array and including a plurality of dies, the second die array defining a second die profile that is complementary with the first die profile; and a drive for driving at least one of the first die array and the second die array; wherein in use the plurality of dies of the first die array and the plurality of dies of the second die array sequentially engage the deformable material along a processing length to deform the deformable material to a predetermined profile.
- sequential engagement of the deformable material indicates that the deformable material is engaged by dies of the first die array and the second die array in sequence so as to avoid or at least alleviate unnecessary deformation of the deformable material.
- the dies of the first die array and the second die array do not simultaneously engage and disengage the deformable material along the entire processing length of the deformable material.
- Sequential engagement should not be inferred as meaning ordered engagement and may include random engagement.
- the first die array advantageously includes a preliminary set of dies and a secondary set of dies, the preliminary set of dies and secondary set of dies sequentially engaging the sheet of deformable material along the processing length in use.
- the first die array may include tertiary and quaternary sets of dies, and so on, if desired.
- the preliminary set of dies includes odd numbered dies within the first die array and the secondary set of dies includes even numbered dies within the first die array.
- the odd numbered dies and even numbered dies of the first die array are advantageously separately driven by the drive. It will be appreciated that any combination of dies may be employed to form the preliminary set of dies and the secondary set of dies. This may be dependent on the predetermined profile that is desired after forming of the deformable material.
- the dies of the preliminary die set may be associated with one another by any suitable means.
- the odd numbered dies of the first die array are associated with a first drive plate and the even numbered dies of the first die array are associated with a second drive plate, each of the first drive plate and second drive plate being driven by the drive.

- the second drive plate is defined by a longitudinally extending central plate that is longitudinally straddled by the pair of longitudinal plates defining the first drive plate.
- the first die array and the second die array each include a preliminary set of dies and a secondary set of dies, the preliminary set of dies and secondary set of dies of the first die array and the second die array sequentially engaging the deformable material along the processing length in use.

- the secondary set of dies of the first die array and the second die array may include even numbered dies within the first die array and the second die array respectively.
- the odd numbered dies and even numbered dies of the first die array and, now also, the second die array may be separately and respectively driven by the drive.
- the various die sets may be associated with one another as desired by any suitable means.
- the odd numbered dies of the first die array are associated with a first drive plate and the even numbered dies of the first die array are associated with a second die plate, and the odd numbered dies of the second die array are associated with a third drive plate and the even numbered dies of the second die array are associated with a fourth drive plate, each of the drive plates being driven by the drive.
- the various die plates may take a similar form to that described above.
- the dies of the first die array and the second die array are driven in linear reciprocating motion.
- the linear motion may, for example, be within the planes of the individual dies of the die arrays.
- the linear motion may be at an inclined or declined angle to the planes of the individual dies.
- the reciprocating motion may be an orbital or elliptical reciprocating motion.
- the reciprocating motion of the odd numbered dies of the first die array and the second die array is offset relative to the reciprocating motion of the even numbered dies of the first die array and the second die array.
- Such an arrangement advantageously facilitates drawing of the deformable material through the assembly.
- the orientation of the first die array and the second die array is not particularly limited.
- the two arrays may be disposed in vertical planes.
- the first die array and the second die array are preferably disposed in horizontal planes.
- the assembly includes: a third die array including a plurality of dies, the third die array defining a third die profile; a fourth die array that is complementary with the third die array and including a plurality of dies, the fourth die array defining a fourth die profile that is complementary with the third die profile; and a drive for driving at least one of the third die array and the fourth die array; wherein, in use, the plurality of dies of the third die array and the plurality of dies of the fourth die array sequentially engage the deformable material, preformed by the first die array and the second die array, along a processing length to deform the deformable material to a final profile.
- the third die array and the fourth die array When the first die array and second die array are disposed in generally horizontal planes, the third die array and the fourth die array will generally be disposed in a plane that is offset, or at an angle to, the horizontal plane. In some instances, the third die array and the fourth die array are disposed in vertical planes. This advantageously enables forming of a wider variety of profiles from the deformable material.
- the assembly includes a guide for guiding the deformable material between the first die array and the second die array.
- the drive of the assembly is not particularly limited and variations would be readily appreciated by those of skill in the art.
- the drive may be a mechanical or hydraulic drive.
- the drive includes a mechanical drive with gearing.
- the above description relates to an assembly including at least one pair of die arrays that cooperate with one another and complement one another, and that may be useful in forming a deformable material to a desired profile. It is also envisaged that in some instances, for example when forming less complex profiles, it may be possible to effectively produce a desired result with only one die array matched with a complementary solid die.
- an assembly for press forming a deformable material including: a first die defined by a die array including a plurality of dies, the die array defining a first die profile; a second die that is complementary with the first die; and a drive for driving at least the die array of the first die; wherein in use the plurality of dies of the first die array sequentially engage the deformable material along a processing length to deform the deformable material to a predetermined profile.
- the second die may be a solid die.
- the second die may define a second die profile that is complementary with the first die profile.
- the second die may be formed of the same material, or a similar material to the first die.
- the second die may be formed of a resilient flexible material that deforms to a complementary profile to the first die profile on engagement with the die array of the first die.
- suitable resilient flexible materials may include a hard rubber material or a relatively stiff deformable plastic material.
- the present invention also provides a die set for use in an assembly as described above, the die set including: a first die array including a plurality of dies, the first die array defining a first die profile; and a second die array that is complementary with the first die array and including a plurality of dies, the second die array defining a second die profile that is complementary with the first die profile.
- the first die array and the second die array each include a preliminary set of dies and a secondary set of dies, the preliminary set of dies and secondary set of dies of the first die array being separately mounted and the preliminary set of dies and the secondary set of dies of the second die array being separately mounted.
- the preliminary set of dies of the first die array and the second die array may include odd numbered dies within the first die array and the second die array respectively

- the second die may be a solid die and may define a second die profile that is complementary with the first die profile or may be formed of a resilient flexible material that deforms to a complementary profile to the first die profile on engagement with the die array of the first die.
- the deformable material is not particularly limited, provided that it may be formed into the desired final profile.
- the deformable material may be a low gauge sheet of material, or may be a higher gauge plate of material. It will be appreciated that whilst the gauge of material may be selected from a wide range, the assemblies and dies described above may suitably be employed without alteration of their general design. For example, heavier gauge material may simply necessitate the use of a more powerful drive for the assembly or a larger die set, compared with that which may be required for lower gauge sheet material.
- the deformable material may include any material suitable for deformation into a final desired profile.
- the deformable material may be a sheet or plate of metal, such as aluminium, brass, copper, cold rolled steel, mild steel, tin, nickel, magnesium, titanium and so on.
- the deformable material may be a sheet of thermoplastic material which may optionally be fibre-reinforced. Suitable thermoplastic materials will be readily appreciated by those in the art. For example, these may include polyethylene, polypropylene, polycarbonate, polyethylene terephthalate, polyacrylate, polymethacrylate and so on.
- the assembly includes a heater for preheating the deformable material.
- the dies of the assembly may be heated to impart heat to the deformable material during deformation.
- the invention not only relates to an assembly for press forming a deformable material, but also to die sets for use in such assemblies. These die sets may be designed as needed for a particular desired final profile. During development of the invention, an advantageous method of fabricating such die sets has also been developed.
- the invention provides a method of fabricating a die set having a profile for continuous deformation of a deformable material from an initial profile to a final profile including: mapping the profile of the die set; forming the die set, including a first die and a second die that define the profile of the die set; and splitting at least one of the first die and the second die to form a die array.
- mapping of the profile of the die set may be achieved by any suitable means. Generally, mapping will be achieved using differential geometry taking into account the path from the initial profile to the final profile. Particularly, computer based mapping may be suitably employed in accordance with this aspect of the invention.
- Mapping is preferably conducted such that each portion of the deformable material passes the same distance through the die set during the deformation process. This may advantageously avoid issues associated with excessive stretching of the deformable material, for example damage to surface treatments that may be applied to the material. It is also preferred that the mapping be carried out such that redundant deformation is minimized, or such that the length of the profile of the die set is minimized.
- Forming of the die set may be achieved by any suitable method known in the art.
- the die set is formed by casting of a suitable material.
- the die set may be machined.

- a method for press forming a deformable material including feeding the deformable material between a first die array including a plurality of dies and a second die array including a plurality of dies, wherein the plurality of dies of the first die array and the plurality of dies of the second die array sequentially engage the deformable material along a processing length to deform the deformable material to a predetermined profile.
- sequential engagement may be achieved by any suitable means.
- the plurality of dies of the first die array and the plurality of dies of the second die array sequentially engage the deformable material in an offset reciprocating motion along the processing length of the deformable material.
- the reciprocating motion of odd numbered dies of the first die array and the second die array may be offset relative to the reciprocating motion of even numbered dies of the first die array and the second die array to facilitate sequential engagement of the deformable material along the processing length.
- the method may include post working of the deformable material after it is press formed to the predetermined profile.
- post working may include, roll forming, straightening and/or welding of the deformable material. Other alternatives for post working would be readily appreciated by those of skill in the art.
- a method for press forming a deformable material including feeding the deformable material between a first die defined by a die array including a plurality of dies and a second die, wherein the plurality of dies of the first die array sequentially engage the deformable material along a processing length to deform the deformable material to a predetermined profile.
- the method may include heating the deformable material to a predetermined temperature prior to and/or during deformation of the deformable material.

- Figure 9 illustrates the die arrays of Figures 7 and 8 in combination.
- a press forming assembly 40 is illustrated that includes an upper die array 41 and a lower die array 42.
- a sheet of deformable material 43 which will be referred to hereafter as a sheet of metal for convenience, is fed between the upper die array 41 and the lower die array 42 and is progressively deformed to a desired final profile 44.
- the upper and lower die arrays 41 and 42 each include a plurality of individual dies.
- the upper die array is defined by a preliminary set of dies made up of odd numbered dies 45 in the upper dies array 41.
- the odd number dies 45 are supported by a drive plate defined by two longitudinally extending plates 46a and 46b.
- the plates 46a and 46b extend longitudinally along the transverse edges of the odd numbered dies 45 and are engaged by a drive to facilitate driven reciprocation of the odd numbered dies 45.
- a secondary set of dies made up of even numbered dies 47 in the upper die array 41 is also provided.
- the even numbered dies 47 are supported by a drive plate 48 that extends longitudinally along the even numbered dies 47 and that is longitudinally straddled by the plates 46a and 46b that support the odd numbered dies 45.
- the drive plate 48 is engaged by a drive to facilitate driven reciprocation of the even numbered dies 47.
- the lower die array 42 includes a primary set of dies made up of odd numbered dies 49 and a secondary set of dies made up of even numbered dies 50.
- the odd numbered dies 49 are associated with, and supported by, a drive plate 51
- the even numbered dies 50 are supported by a drive plate defined by longitudinally extending plates 52a and 52b.
- the reciprocal motion of a pair of odd numbered dies 45 and 49 and a pair of even numbered dies 47 and 50 is illustrated.
- the die pairs 45, 49 and 47, 50 are driven such that they operate in an offset reciprocating motion. More particularly, the die pairs 45, 49 and 47, 50 sequentially engage the metal sheet 43 passing through the upper and lower die sets. This advantageously facilitates progressive deformation of the metal sheet 43 while minimising unnecessary deformation due to disengagement of the die arrays with the sheet 43.
- dies 45 and 49 are in engagement with the sheet of metal 43 as it enters the assembly, while dies 47 and 50 are disengaged from the sheet of metal 43.
- the dies are all disengaged from the sheet 43.
- dies located further along the die arrays of the assembly will be engaged with the sheet 43.
- the offset reciprocating motion of the dies is evidenced by the illustration in the third frame of Figure 6.
- the dies 45 and 49 that were previously engaged with the sheet of metal 43 have totally disengaged the sheet of metal 43, while the dies 47 and 50 that were previously disengaged from the sheet of metal 43, have now engaged the sheet of metal 43.
- This movement of the dies within the upper and lower die arrays advantageously aids in feeding or drawing the sheet of metal 43 through the assembly.
- the upper die array 70 includes a preliminary die set made up of odd numbered dies 71 , and a secondary die set made up of even numbered dies
- the dies 71 and 72 define a die profile 73 along the longitudinal, or processing, length of the upper die array 70.
- the die profile 73 has a relatively low profile at a feed end 74, and a relatively high profile at an exit end 75. As such, a sheet of metal is progressively deformed along the processing length of the upper die array 70.
- the lower die array 80 includes a preliminary die set made up of odd numbered dies 81 , and a secondary die set made up of even numbered dies 82.
- the dies 81 and 82 define a die profile 83 along the longitudinal, or processing, length of the lower die array 80.
- the die profile 83 again has a relatively low profile at a feed end 84, and a relatively high profile at an exit end 85.
- the die profiles 73 and 83 are complementary with one another.
- the profiles 73 and 83 are complementary along the processing length of the die arrays 70 and 80.
- the profiles 73 and 83 are such that the sheet of metal being passed between the die arrays 70 and 80 is progressively deformed to the desired final profile.
- the sequential engagement of the sheet of metal to be formed by the individual dies 71 , 72, 81 and 82 of the upper die array 70 and lower die array 80 alleviate or eliminate spring back of the sheet of metal during forming. This is generally due to the fact that at least one or more dies is in engagement with the sheet of metal at any one time during forming.
- the assembly also advantageously reduces or eliminates axial stretching and bending of the sheet of metal during forming.
- the assembly of the invention has various other advantages, including reduced power consumption due to the decrease in wasted deformation energy.
- the assembly is smaller in size than its roll forming counterparts. As such, the assembly has a smaller "foot print" which will result in lower production costs. It is anticipated that the assembly of the invention will also provide for lower maintenance costs and operation costs.
