A LoCoMaTech H-2020 projekt alakítástechnológiai vonatkozásai és eredményei

In this paper, the formability investigations and their results achieved within the LoCoMaTech H-2020 project are summarised. This Joint European project was realised by the consortium of 19 institutions and companies from nine European countries. The project was led by the Imperial College London (ICL). The primary aim of the project was to develop a cost-effective process for producing automotive parts from low-density aluminium alloys (e.g. AA6082 es AA7075 high strength grades), to assure significant mass reduction and thereby reducing the harmful emissions and contributing to the environment protection. Performing theoretical and experimental formability investigations and numerical modelling was the main task of the Institute of Materials Science & Technology of the University of Miskolc as the Hungarian project partner.
