In the roll forming process, a sheet or strip of metal is continuously and progressively formed into a desired cross-sectional profile by feeding it through a series of forming roll. Accordingly, it is important to maintain the material properties of the initial sheet and deform uniformly during the roll forming. The roll forming process was estimated in consideration of some factors such as material properties, strip thickness, roll diameter, roll velocity, and the deformation of the material that influence the forming length. The hydroforming technology has been recognized as a new technique in manufacturing industry, especially in automotive industry. The formed pipe in used in hydroforming process is manufactured by the roll forming. The formability during hydroforming is very sensitive to the state of pipes which are made by roll forming. Particularly the amount of hardening during roll forming affects the formability. Therefore, it is necessary to design the optimum roll flower to reduce the local hardening. In this paper, optimum roll flower which has uniform strain distribution through sheet width was obtained by comparing strain distribution in various roll flower. Finite element analysis(FEA) is performed to estimate the strain distribution related to hardening by roll forming. A numerical analysis is carried out by SHAPE-RF.

Roll-to-roll forming process is one of important metal processing technology because the process is simple and economical. These days, with these merits, roll-to-roll forming process is tried to be employed in manufacturing the circuit board, barrier ribs and solar cell plate. However, it is difficult to apply to the forming of micro scale or sub-micro scale pattern. In this study, the roll forming processing for the micro scale is designed and analyzed. The forming of micro pattern for small electric device such as LCD panel by incremental roll forming process is analyzed. Firstly, the optimum analysis conditions are found by several analyses. And then, formability is analyzed for various protrusion shapes at various forming temperatures. The formability is evaluated in terms of filling ratio and damage value. The filling ratio is defined from the tool geometry and critical damage is determined from the analysis of uniaxial tensile test. Finally, optimum forming conditions that guarantee the successful forming are found.

In this paper the stress and strain behaivor in near homogeneous isotropic matrix of metal like steel was studied roll forming of thin steel sheet for cylindrical pipe. Analytical results reveals a body which is on the area of square thickness along and perpendicular to the width of thin steel sheet is in the state of plane strain during roll forming. As a result construction of analytical method for calculating deformation load and stably deformed length along the width of strained steel sheet was established. Also loads applied during roll forming were analyzed using two typical thin steel sheet 12.3m thick steel sheet with 42.5kg /mm2 yield strength of pipe and 5.3mm thick steel sheet with 32.5kg/mm2 yield strength of pipe. Through this analysis applicability of the analytical method for deformation load during roll forming of cylindrical thin steel pipe was evaluated with a study of necessary production technology for roll forming and design technology for roll forming machine.

A roll forming process is developed for an automotive part of high strength steel. Forming rolls are designed through the plane strain elastic-plastic finite element analysis to estimate the springback. It is assumed that the process can be approximated as a series of multi-step bending processes. Then the 3D elastic-plastic finite element analysis with the solid element is carried out for the designed roll forming process. The prototype roll forming machine and the forming rolls are made and the experiments are carried out. The results of the analysis and the experiments are compared.

A cable tray is a fixture to support and protect electrical and communication cables. In this study, a roll-forming analysis is conducted to produce an all-in-one cable tray. The number of process stands is calculated using an empirical formula. By applying bending methods to the design of the roll flower pattern, the final process stands and forming angles are determined. The shape and stress variations in the cable tray are modeled and observed by roll forming analysis using LS-DYNA Software. The width of the side rail and the maximum stress on all stands does not exceed the reference values. The forming machine and rolls are manufactured based on the results of the roll forming analysis. In addition, all-in-one cable trays satisfy the National Electrical Manufacturers Association standards when they are manufactured according to this design.

However, it is difficult to apply to the forming of micro scale or sub-micro scale pattern. In this study, the roll forming processing for the micro scale is designed and analyzed. In this study, the forming of micro pattern for solar cell plate by incremental roll forming process is analyzed. The solar cell plate may have thousands of patterns, and the analysis of forming considering all the patterns is impossible due to the computational costs. In this study, analyses are carried out for various numbers of patterns and the results are compared. It is shown that the analyses results with four row patterns and twelve row patterns are same. So, it is considered that the analysis can be carried out for only four rows of pattern for the design of incremental roll forming process. Also experiment is carried out process that is designed through simulation.

Roll forming process is simulated with a commercial FEM code LS-DYNA. The rolls are treated as rigid bodies rotating with a constant angular velocity. The strip and the rolls are modeled with 4-node plate elements. It is assumed that the nodes along the front end of the strip move along paths given by sine functions. It is found that the analysis can be applied to the optimal design of forming rolls. With these analyses, it is expected that forming defects can be avoided and process development efforts can be reduced.

Flexible roll forming is an advanced sheet-metal-forming process that allows the production of parts with various cross-sections. During the flexible process, material is subjected to three-dimensional deformation such as transverse bending, inhomogeneous elongations, or contraction. Because of the effects of process variables on the quality of the roll-formed products, the approaches used to investigate the roll-forming process have been largely dependent on experience and trial- and-error methods. Web-warping is one of the major shape defects encountered in flexible roll forming. In this study, an SVR model was developed to predict the web-warping during the flexible roll forming process. In the development of the SVR model, three process parameters, namely the forming-roll speed condition, leveling-roll height, and bend angle were considered as the model inputs, and the web-warping height was used as the response variable for three blank shapes; rectangular, concave, and convex shape. MATLAB software was used to train the SVR model and optimize three hyperparameters (λ, ε, and γ). To evaluate the SVR model performance, the statistical analysis was carried out based on the three indicators: the root-mean-square error, mean absolute error, and relative root-mean-square error.
