Tribological Investigations on Tool Surfaces for Temperature-Supported Forming of Magnesium AZ31 Sheets

Aiming to decrease friction coefficient () during the forming of magnesium alloy sheets, nine (9) tools with different hole geometries in their surface (flat, elliptical, and circular) were manufactured from steel Boehler W400 VMR (as known as DIN 1.2343).. Tribological investigations were accomplis...
