Coefficient of friction sheet metal.
However it is possible to find tables in the literature for friction coefficients between various materials.
The coefficient of friction is one of the key parameters in fe simulations of forming processes which can influence the prediction accuracy of these analyses.
The aim of this research work is to apply an experimental approach in order to bridge simple benchmark friction experiments with real sheet forming applications.

Coefficients of friction between materials are best determined through testing.
Static and kinetic coefficient of friction.
Showing the concept of coefficient of friction.
The ratio between the force of friction and the contact force between the two moving objects is represented by a coefficient of friction µ whose value will depend on the tribology system itself and the forming process such as temperature of the sheet ram velocity contact pressure and the strains in the sheet.
The frictional force can be expressed as.
N normal force between the surfaces n lb there are at least two types of friction forces.
In sheet metal forming different friction regimes may occur depending on the lubricant amount and surface topographies of the tool and sheet metal.
Where μ s is the coefficient of static friction and μ k is the coefficient of kinetic friction.
For example static friction can prevent an object from sliding down a sloped surface.
For rubber on tarmac close to 1 0.
The determination of the friction coefficient in a sheet metal forming process is a complex procedure because many variables influence the friction mechanisms.
The static and kinetic friction coefficient values reference table shown in this article will be helpful for finding the cof values of commonly used materials.
Typical values for the coefficient of friction when sliding is occurring i e.
For polished oiled metal surfaces less than 0 1.
The dynamic coefficient of friction are.
Static friction is friction between two or more solid objects that are not moving relative to each other.
The value of μ s is generally higher than the value of μ k for a given combination of materials.
μ static μ s or kinetic μ k frictional coefficient.
The friction force is the force exerted by a surface when an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it.
Mahesh apurv kumar m.
The coefficient of friction is the ratio of a force to a force and hence has no units.
Simplified models are given for different conditions of sheet metal forming processes.
The coefficient of static friction typically denoted as μ s is usually higher than the coefficient of kinetic friction.
