Abstract

Soft copper tube is one of the popular materials which are used for shipbuilding, automobiles, and freezing and HVAC equipment. However, these materials have problems that they cause occasionally outside wrinkle, spring back, wall thinning phenomena. In this study, to avoid these phenomena, was manufactured a mild materials devoted bending machine, which selected a bending method where the mandrel presses the pipe along with the sliding guide rail during bending process. During the course of confirming this performance, it was found that as the diameter of copper tube used for materials became smaller, the spring back phenomenon increased. And as the bending angle became larger, it became larger. In addition, we could manufacture mold products which scarcely generated wrinkle when bending copper tubes.

연질 동관은 조선, 자동차, 플랜드, 냉동공조 기기 등에 많이 사용되는 대표적인 파이프 재료 중의 하나이다. 그러나 이러한 재료들은 벤딩가공시 외부의 주름, 스프링백, 관이 얇아지는 현상들이 자주 발생하여 문제가 된다. 본 논문에서는 연성재질을 벤딩시 맨드럴이 슬라이딩 가이드 레일을 따라서 파이프를 누르는 벤딩방식을 선택한 연성재질 전용 벤딩머시인을 제작하여 이와 같은 현상을 줄였다. 이의 성능을 확인하는 과정에서 재료로 사용한 동관의 직경이 작을수록 스프링백 현상은 증가하였고 또한 굽힘각도가 클수록 컸다. 또한 동관의 벤딩시 주름이 거의 발생하지 않는 성형품을 제작할 수 있었다.
