Abstract

Elastic springback of workpiece material which occurs in any forming process has been recognized as one of most relevant factors regarding part dimensional accuracy. Therefore, in order to manufacture component in accordance with the geometrical specifications engineers must have a good understanding of this phenomenon and take it into account during the design tool and forming process. Unfortunately, this knowledge is often insufficient and therefore the prediction of elastic springback is sometimes a very tough task. The paper presents a general approach for the calculation of elastic recovery. Given analytical equations can be applied for different forming processes under the condition that values of the principal stresses at the very end of forming process are known. By using this approach elastic strains and amplitude of elastic springback of workpiece in case of free upsetting of cylindrical billet were calculated. Obtained results were verified by FEM analysis.
