摘要
Spinning process is investigated to reveal the mechanism of square cross-section spinning without mandrel. The finite element model with the roller path formula as a boundary condition is established. Forge3D software is used to simulate the spinning process, and the accuracy of the finite element model is verified through experiment. From the stress-strain field, the residual stress on the surface of the workpiece is small after square cross-section cone hollow spinning and the maximum deformation locates on the middle part of the slope surfaces of the workpiece. The strain field distribution and the same Delta r in different rotation round are the cause of the slight curvature that appears on the cross-section edge. The wall thickness decreases after hollow spinning, and the upper wall thickness is larger than the lower part.
