In order to improve the quality of the sheared surface in cutting of inner structure bonded sheet metal the cut-off operation is mainly investigated, which is the typical shearing process in sheet metal forming technology. The sandwich sheet metals considered have inner structure which is constructed in the form of crimped expanded metal and woven metal. The inner structure is bonded between solid sheet by resistance welding or adhesive bonding. The shearing process is visualized by the computer vision system installed in front of the cut-off die and the sheared surface is measured and quantitatively compared with the help of the optical microscope after cut-off operation. From test results we found that the influence of sheared position can be observed and explained clearly and this result can be utilized to get the better sheared surface.

Inner structured and bonded panel, or ISB Panel, as a kind of sandwich type panel, has metallic inner structures which have low relative density, because of their dimensional shape of metal between a pare of metal skin sheets or face sheets. In this work, ISB panels and inner structures formed as repeated pyramidal shapes are introduced. Pyramidal structures are formed easily with expanded metal sheet by the crimping process. Three kinds of pyramidal structures are made and used to fabricate test specimen. Through the multi-point electrical resistance welding, inner structures are bonded with skin sheet. 3-point bending tests are carried out to measure the bending stiffness of ISB panel and experimental results are discussed.

The inner-structure bonded(ISB) sheet metal is defined as a composite sheet metal which has middle layer of truss-structure between two skin sheets. The characteristics such as ultra-light weight, high rigidity, high strength, etc are required especially for automobile parts. The characteristic of ISB sheet metal depends on inner-structure pattern or method of bonding. Pyramid type of crimped expanded metal is used for inner-structure and both of resistance welding and adhesive bonding are applied to make a specimen. As a result of compression test, it is appeared that forming limit is 10% reduction in thickness under a load of 8kgf per unit element(one inner-structure). In case of uniaxial tensile test the non-uniform surface integrity rather than the buckling of inner-structure happened at a load of 450kgf, which indicates elongation of 7.2% and thickness reduction of 13%. The eye-inspection method was applied to examine the defects occurring on the specimen during stretch forming. In case of biaxial stretch forming only the non-uniform deformation on the surface of a skin sheet could be observed. The forming limit in stretching of ISB sheet metal with the hemi-spherical punch of 150mm in diameter was 3mm in forming depth and 5% reduction in thickness.

The L-bending of inner-structure bonded sandwich sheet metal is examined to reduce springback and defects of bent parts. The specimen is composed of top and bottom layers and a middle layer with dimple type-inner-structure and each layer is bonded by resistance welding. This specimen with hollow type-inner-structure shows different bending characteristics from the conventional sandwich sheet metals with solid type-inner-structure. The experiments were conducted for two kinds of working conditions, that is, clearance and movement of first bent specimen for second bending. The deformed profile, bend angle and springback were investigated and compared and then the proper working conditions for L-bending of sandwich sheet metal were prosed.

The L-bending of inner-structure bonded sandwich sheet metal is examined by using a bending die attached to the material testing machine. The specimen is composed of top and bottom layers and a middle layer of pyramid-core structure and each layer is bonded by brazing. The variables chosen for experiments were clearance between punch and die, location of bend line on the specimen surface and clamping type of specimen during L-bending. Effects of these variables on deformation of specimen around die-corner radius were investigated. It was shown that the irregular shapes of recess are formed in the inner layer of bended parts and they greatly depend on working conditions.

Sandwich panel with inner structure is expected to find many applications because of high stiffness to mass ratio. However, low resistance to the pressure in the thickness direction may become a weak point in the forming process. Two pyramid type designs for inner structure are considered. For the resistance characteristics in the thickness direction, finite element simulations are carried out. For one design, experimental results are provided. It is shown that simulation can give a reasonable agreement with experiment. The reasons for the discrepancy are discussed mainly in the geometrical viewpoint. It is observed that most of deformation depends on bending mode. Two designs are compared using simulation.
