Abstract Constrained groove pressing (CGP) is a severe plastic deformation (SPD) technique used as a strengthening method for sheet metal. In the current work, an optimal/cost-saving design for CGP dies was attained using the stress analysis tool in SolidWorks Simulation Xpress wizard. This study examined low-cost and widely industrially applied aluminium materials, i.e., pure 1050 Al and 5052 Al alloy. Each material was subjected to three passes of the CGP process using a 150 tons capacity press. For both materials, inter-pass annealing treatment was undertaken before the third pass. The effect of the number of CGP… More >
