Study on the ultrasonic-assisted spinning of thin-walled cylindrical parts with longitudinal and transverse ribs

Abstract Current studies have shown that the application of composite energy fields in plastic forming process can help reduce load and promote material flow. In this paper, a new method ultrasonic-assisted spinning integral for thin-walled cylindrical parts with outer ribs was proposed, which could not only improve manufacturing efficiency ribbed parts, but also further height ribs. A simulation model longitudinal transverse established, influence ultrasonic amplitude on accuracy obtained, mechanism vibration improving revealed. On basis, equipment built to verify feasibility process. The results showed increase amplitude, gradually increases, effect raising is higher than addition, as uniformity morphology rib obviously improved. mainly realized by form filling into groove. improves flow properties, promotes groove, thereby increasing measured or without vibration. When rolling reduction 1 mm, average increased 50% compared ultrasound, provides research idea
