Abstract Scope |
Recently, various researches have been conducted to expand the application of 7xxx aluminum sheets as reinforcing material for transport components, including aviation parts. However, in the case of a 7xxx-based aluminum sheet, due to the high strength and high sensitivity to thermal treatment, a complicated forming process is required. In this study, the effect of various process variables on heating was analyzed to apply a 7xxx aluminum sheet to resistance heat forming process. According to the variables, such as sheet size and thickness, current, voltage, and time, the temperature gradient of Al 7xxx sheets have been simulated to optimize a heating condition. In addition, analysis results were compared through actual heating experiments. |
