Roll forming simulation for automotive bumper fixing

The bumper beam today is generally made of steel via stamping. The structural and Complexity potential of such parts is very high but investments and variable costs are significant. A process offering an economic and flexible alternative is roll forming. In this paper, a simulation has been done in...
