Increased demands for miniaturized products have led to rapid technological development of micro- forming, one of the most popular micromanufacturing processes for manufacturing very small metallic parts in the submillimeter range. As a promising micromanufacturing technology, microforming possesses lots of advantages including high productivity, ease in manufacturing complex geometries, applicable toawiderangeofmaterials,excellentproductproper- ties, short cycle, and low cost. From the viewpoint of production engineer- ing, microforming is considered as an effective process to economically and preciselymanufacturemicroproductsthatareessential whenbulkproduction is required. However, due to the unique characteristic of size effects existed in the forming ofmetals inmicroscale, research on microforming becomes compre- hensive because forming technology established in the macro world cannot be simply miniaturized according to the theory of similarity. Size effects have significant impact on the forming results, and the quality of formed parts should be carefully taken into account in the forming of metals in microscale. As a result, development of technology that is very applicable to microforming process would be essential and significant for the forming of high-quality micro products with excellent dimensional tolerance, required mechanical properties and improved surface quality. It is my great pleasure to witness this major work of Microforming Technology: Theory, Simulation and Practice by Prof. Zhengyi Jiang, Dr. Jingwei Zhao and Dr. Haibo Xie. The global microforming domain faces major challenges which may be summarized by the common problem of size effectsinmicroscale, increasingcomplexityofmicro productsand processes, as well as increasing requirement towards quality. This book is a timely cap- ture of the state-of-the-art development of microforming technology, cover- ing theory, simulation and practice of the latest research findings and achievements in micro cross wedge rolling, micro flexible rolling, micro ultrathin strip rolling, micro deep drawing, micro hydromechanical deep drawing, micro bending and micro compression, and has addressed as many issues as possible involved in microforming to help getting a thorough grasp xiii xiv Foreword of microforming technology by following a step-by-step process. I have beyond doubt that this contribution will be invaluable to researchers as well as graduate students inthe field ofmicroforming worldwide. I sincerely congratulate the authors on having produced this splendid new scholarly book, and I am very confident it will become a worthy and widely recognized work. I look forward to this book’s success in proving that “microforming” represents promising manufacturing technology which has a bright future and will take a long time for research with the tremendously increasingdemandfor micro products. My best wishes to the authors. Peter Robinson University ofWollongong, NSW, Australia October2016 Preface The booming development of the micro products market has promoted the rapid development of microtechnology production techniques. The micro- forming of metals is a cost effective approach to the batch production of complex, high performancemicro components for adiverse range ofapplica- tions including medical devices, precision equipment, communication devices, micro-electromechanical systems and micro fluidics systems. Microforming differs from the conventional forming technology in terms of material, processes, tools, and machines and equipment, due to the minia- turization nature of the whole microforming system. Forming technology established in the macro world cannot be simply scaled down to the micro world to make high-quality miniaturized products. This is because it is impossible to scale down all parameters in the microforming process accord- ing to the theory of similarity, due to the existence of size effects in micro- forming processes. A number of unexpected problems in key aspects of mechanical behavior, tribology, and scatter of material behavior are encoun- tered. As a result, low quality micro products, with high reject rates may be manufactured if there is no appropriate strategy available for the design and controlofmicroformingprocesses. Atpresent,there isstill lackof acompre- hensive knowledge based on microforming technology. Challenges remain in the high efficiency manufacturing of high-quality micro products due to the common problem of microscale size effects, complexity of processes for making micro products and the ever increasing requirement to improve prod- uct quality and performance. A book that systematically addresses the com- plex range of issues involved in microforming is thus very much in demand to provide readers with a technical documentation that can be used in the research, development and application of microformingtechnology. Microforming Technology: Theory, Simulation and Practice is designed to provide engineers, scientists, academics and graduate students with the necessary comprehensive knowledge and information on microforming fun- damentals, microforming theory, simulation models, numerical modeling of microforming process, equipment and tools design, practical microforming procedure, and microforming-related supporting system. Emphasis has been placed on the simulation and practice of seven different types of microform- ing methods, including micro cross wedge rolling (MCWR), micro flexible rolling, micro ultrathin strip rolling, micro deep drawing (MDD), micro xv xvi Preface hydromechanicaldeep drawing (MHDD),micro bending andmicro compres- sion to help readers obtain a thorough grasp of the lasted research develop- ments in microforming by following a coherent step-to-step process. This requires an interdisciplinary approach drawing on relevant knowledge from materials science, mechanical engineering, materials processing engineering, and materials manufacturing engineering in order to clearly understand the technical issues involved in this book. We have included as many references as possible at the end of each chapter to provide readers a way to access rel- evant information in relation tothe contentspresented.

Chapter 7, Simulation of Micro Cross Wedge Rolling introduces the simulation process of MCWR, using a developed novel material model based on Hall(cid:1)Petch relationship, surface layer and composited model with grained heterogeneity in 3D Voronoi tessellation. In Chapter 8, Simulation of Micro Flexible Rolling, a FE model is established to numerically study the springback in thickness direction during micro flexible rolling process, where 3D Voronoi Preface xvii tessellation has been applied to describe the grain boundary and generation process of grains in the workpiece. The influences of processing parameters on surface asperity flattening of workpieces are also numerically studied and analyzed. Chapter 9, Simulation ofMicro UltrathinStrip Rollingpresents the simulation of micro ultrathin strip rolling. The rolling deformation character- istics of foil have been theoretically analyzed and a 2D elastic(cid:1)plastic FE model is established to investigate the roll bite behavior in cold foil rolling process where the contact pressure distribution and roll contour in the roll bite are also discussed. Numerical investigation on the micro asymmetrical rolling process for ultrathin strip is conducted, and the surface roughness evolution and the effect of speed ratio in rolling are identified. In Chapter 10, Simulation of Micro Deep Drawing, a Voronoi blank model is developed for simulating the MDD process. Real microstructures and Voronoi structures are applied in microstructural models through image- based modeling method. Chapter 11, Simulation of Micro Hydromechanical Deep Drawing presents the simulation of MHDD where the closed and open lubricant pockets theory has been developed, and different coefficients of friction are applied in different lubricant pockets. A critical hydraulic pres- sure value that influences the wrinkling and earing occurrence and tendency is identified. In Chapter 12, Simulation of Micro Bending, the scatter of grain mechanical properties is calculated based on the results from micro tensile tests and the mechanical properties of these grains are assigned to each Voronoi tessellation to achieve the grain heterogeneity in ABAQUS/ CAE. A new FE model is built with Voronoi tessellation and grain heteroge- neity to simulate the micro V-bending process. Chapter 13, Simulation of Micro Compression develops a material constitutive model based on Hall(cid:1)Petch relationship, composite model, surface layer model and grain heterogeneity.

ZhengyiJiang, Jingwei Zhao, andHaiboXie University ofWollongong, NSW, Australia October2016 Chapter 1 Fundamentals of Microforming 1.1 MICROFORMING CONCEPT Product miniaturization is a global trend for facilitating product usage, enabling product functions to be implemented in microscale geometries, and aimed at reducing product weight, volume, cost, and pollution. Driven by ongoing miniaturization in diverse areas including medical devices, precision equipment, communication devices, micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), and micro fluidics systems (MFS), the demands for micro pro- ducts, as shown in Fig. 1.1, have been tremendously increased. Such a trend requires development of efficient theories and technologies for manufactur- ing high-quality micro products with excellent dimensional tolerances, required mechanical properties and improved surface quality. For manufacturing micro products, the conventional metal forming technology has been scaled down to microscale due to its process simplicity, high production capability, minimized or zero material waste, and near- net-shape production. Microforming, in the context of metal forming, is defined as the forming of parts or geometrical features with at least two dimensions in the submillimeter range by using mechanically based proces- sing technologies. Products of this size are commonly used in electronics production and other fields including the medical sector, MEMS, and MFS. As a promising micromanufacturing technology, microforming has a lot of advantages including high productivity, ease in manufacturing complex geometries, applicable to a wide range of materials and excellent product properties, as comparedto other processing methods such as turning, milling, andlithographictechnologies.Fromtheviewpointofproductionengineering, microforming is considered as an effective process to economically and preciselymanufacturemicroproductsthatareessential whenbulkproduction is required. With the booming development of micro products market, more and more energy and resource will flow to the field of microforming, and the manufacturingofmicro products willabsorb more attention. Microforming can be regarded as a forming technology processed in the so-called microfactory. A microfactory is a downsized manufacturing system which represents an approach to manufacture miniaturized products with less space and operational costs, and as well as reduced consumption MicroformingTechnology.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-811212-0.00001-7 Copyright©2017ElsevierInc.Allrightsreserved. 3
