Abstract

Magnesium alloy is expected to be widely used for mobile electronic appliances as well as automobile parts for its lightweight and EMI-shielding characteristics. In the present investigation, a Note-PC upper case made of magnesium alloy AZ31 sheet was developed by using the press forming technology at elevated temperature. Considering the press forming process and the formability of magnesium alloy sheet, the case shape and the press die was designed. The optimum forming condition was experimentally examined. Then the as-received magnesium alloy sheet was press-formed into the designed case shape under the optimum forming condition.
