Abstract:Compared with the single-component metal plate, the stainless steel-carbon steel laminated plate (SCLP) combines the stainless steel layer and the carbon steel layer with a special preparation technique. In order to estimate the bending angle of laminated plates accurately, it is of great significance to establish an analytical model. Based on the temperature gradient mechanism, the temperature distribution equation of the SCLP is established by the piecewise function. Then, the depth of the plastic zone is calculated by the recrystallization temperature according to the temperature distribution along the thickness direction of the SCLP. Moreover, by fitting the yield strength curves of stainless steel and carbon steel, the average compressive stress of the plastic zone is calculated through the integral method. By optimizing the calculation of the plastic depth and the average compressive stress in the plastic zone, the analytical model is established based on mechanical equilibrium equations. The experimental verification shows that the average error of bending angle using the proposed model is 9.95%, while Liu's model is 38.02%. The proposed model provides a calculation method for estimating the bending angle, which contributes to improving the accuracy of the analytical model in laser bending of SCLP.
