Description
Sheet metal design is an important skill in industry today and will be in the future. Due to its versatility designing with sheet metal finds applications in almost all major industries where physical products are manufactured
This course covers the essential basic theoretical and practical knowledge required for Designing Sheet metal parts aimed at Design engineers who are designing products
The common processes
Materials and the properties which matter for design
What is anisotropy
Comparison between hardness, toughness and strength
What happens to the Material when it is formed or Bent?
The Theory behind Forming and Bending
Form-ability and Bend-ability of metal sheets and what factors affect them
What are underlying principles which make a metal formable?
Forming limit diagrams and how they are created
Bending Parameters in design
Bending direction and its affect on quality
K factor, Neutral axis, Bend allowance
The concept of Spring-back and ways to reduce it
What is wrinkling and why does it occur?
Deep drawing process and Practice
Rolling, hydroforming, Stretch forming
Joining processes and their comparison
Equipment used to perform operations
Design Guidelines to create cost- effective designs which are suitable for manufacturing.
Design projects with considerations
So if you are a student exploring the world of product design or a design engineer who wants to make products with sheet metal then this courses will be a good value addition.
The course is designed with short to the point explanations with focus on right understanding towards thoughtful design.
