Abstract
Surface flexible rolling method, using two integral working rolls as the forming tool, can achieve fast, flexible and continuous manufacturing of three-dimensional sheet metal parts. This paper introduces the basic principle of surface flexible rolling and discusses the numerical simulation results when the working rolls are bended as circular arcs. The stability indicates the forming effect to some extent and the flow type of the metal can be deduced from stability analysis. To integrate and analyze the simulation results by means of reverse engineering. The analysis results show that the forming process is stable and the effect of surface flexible rolling is fine. It also indicates that inhomogeneous deformation and accumulation occurs during the process. The numerical simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the surface flexible rolling is a feasible and effective way to form three-dimensional sheet metal parts.
