TLDR
Work hardenable aluminum alloy sheet material is progressively stamped to a final stamped shape in a succession of stamping operations as mentioned in this paper, where a blank sheet of annealed starting material is stamped into a least a first preform shape between heated stamping tools to form a pre-form shape and subsequently anneal the worked preform shapes.Abstract:
Work hardenable aluminum alloy sheet material is progressively stamped to a final stamped shape in a succession of stamping operations. A blank sheet of annealed starting material is stamped into a least a first preform shape between heated stamping tools to form a preform shape and subsequently anneal the worked preform shape. After one or more annealed preform shapes have been progressively attained, the last preform shape is cooled, if necessary, and stamped to its final stamped shape between unheated stamping tools.read more
