Abstract
Spring manufactures face an everyday challenge that they have to reach narrow and capable tolerances while having to process band materials with ever increasing strengths. A compensation of spring back in bending operations can be reached on the basis of know-how obtained in years yet there are large dispersions of spring back depending on batch fluctuations, adjustments and wear of the tool active parts. A research project has been set up by German spring manufacturing industry in which a systematic variation of band materials, bending technology and bending velocity / deformation rate is scheduled in order to evaluate their influence on the dispersion of spring back. The planned results shall help reducing costs for adjusting procedures, shutdown times and rejects parts. Objectives, procedural method and first results of this ongoing project "Rückfederungsverhalten federharter Bänder beim Biegen" (IGF 17423 BG) will be presented in this paper.
