As demands on micro-products increase significantly with raising functional integration and increasing complexity, microfoming attracts a lot of attention in the manufacture of micro-products. Since the conventional big forming systems are not adequate to achieve sufficient tolerances of micro-scale parts, it is necessary to reduce the scale of the forming equipment and devices. In addition, understandings on the size effects, which exist in the material behavior and process characterization of microforming processes, need to be expanded. In this study, a miniaturized forming system based on the ball screw and servo motor actuator was developed for the efficient micro-parts production. In addition, tensile tests and cylindrical upsetting experiments were performed to evaluate the performance of the microforming system and to investigate the flow stress and friction size effects in microforming processes.
