Influence of toolpath and clamping strategies on stainless steel plates distorsion after machining
, 2018 Heat exchangers in nuclear power generation plants are made of thin stainless-steel plates assembled together in order to improve their efficiency and compactness. To ensure the assembly, the global distortion of those plates must be mastered and minimized, mainly by predicting the evolution of the residual stress field during their manufacturing ...

Materials Research ProceedingsAbstract. This study focuses on finding a toolpath strategy for accurately forming geometric details on a preshaped sheet metal part by incremental forming in multiple steps. The final thickness distributions and geometrical accuracy are analyzed for spiraling and dedicated feature toolpath strategies. The results are compared to forming the full part (
