Metal Forming Process • It involves deforming a metal plastically into various shapes and sizes under the effect of externally applied forces. • The stress induced during the deformation process are greater than Yield Strength and less than Fracture Strength of material • Formability
Classification of Metal Forming Process • Hot Forming or Hot Working Process (T/Tm<0.3) • Cold Forming or Cold Working Process (T/Tm is 0.3-0.5) • Warm Forming Process (T/Tm >0.6) • T-Working Temp • Tm- Melting Temp
Hot Rolling • Flat Rolling – End Product have rectangular cross section • Shape Rolling - End Product have various cross sectional shape such as I section, channels, angles, square, hexagonal rods and tubes etc.
