AB - Conventional commonly used titanium stamping techniques like hot forming and superplastic forming each have distinct disadvantages. Hot forming usually leads to limited formability and significant springback, whilst superplastic forming often results in long cycle times, high energy use, and costly tooling. A novel, energy-efficient, and cost-effective Heat Stamping process emerges as a promising solution. Two types of Ti6Al4V components, cup-shaped and U-shaped, were produced using the novel Heat Stamping process, and their properties were examined. A defect-free cup-shaped component achieving a considerably high draw ratio of up to 1.8, was successfully fabricated. A moderate enhancement in the hardness of the component indicated a superior post-form strength achieved by Heat Stamping. Further analysis of the U-shaped components shows that the one produced using the novel method demonstrated a notable reduction in springback angle, from 4.8° to 0.7°, highlighting the potential of H eat Stamping in achieving high shape accuracy for near-net-shape forming.
