Deformation distortions of geometric form tube blanks in the process of drilling holes

Abstract

The influence of deviations of the shape of the cross-sections of pipes from roundness on the axisymmetric stress state and taking this factor into account in theoretical studies and methods for solving problems of mandrel drilling in the elastic-plastic mode are considered. The features of the choice of tubular blanks, which help to reduce the unevenness of deformation and increase the accuracy of processing in the process of mandrel drilling, are revealed. Recommendations are given for eliminating the variance in wall thickness of blanks at the stage of their preparation for the mandrel operation.
