Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the metal powder compaction process using closed-die system, which applies to mass production for various PM parts, failure of green compact such as slip-crack often occurs especially for compaction of multi-step part. It is considered that the slip-crack appears in the boundary of high density part and low density part as shear failure plane. Therefore, investigation of shear property in a powder layer on compression-shear plane will provide critical stress state for crack occurrence. We have developed single shear tester for metal powder to investigate stress state in shear failure occurrence. Critical stress state in several compact densities has been estimated in constant volume shearing. Critical State in shear failure with density increasing has been estimated experimentally, and angle of friction increases with particle size increasing. Numerical simulation of single shear test by using distinct element method solver has been conducted to discuss shear failure properties.
