Abstract
PP twin-wall sheets offer a durable and lightweight alternative to traditional corrugated cardboard packaging. They offer considerable advantages over cardboard-based solutions, especially in the technical sector, where contamination from oil and high-force applications by metallic components is expected. They can be used, e.g., as separating compartments in transport containers. The toughness of the sheets allows them to reuse the packaging materials multiple times, which makes them more sustainable. The material can also be used as a lightweight and cost-effective structural component, e.g., for case walls. However, the cutting edges resulting from the manufacturing process, usually punching, are critical for the applications mentioned. These are slightly sharp-edged and often open the inner structure of the panels. That can lead to superficial injuries during picking the parts and to dirt accumulation inside the sheets, e.g., from chips. Sealing the relevant cutting edges by means of thermo–mechanical forming offers a reliable solution to the problem. Until now, this has often been limited to straight edges or required extra processes and tools. These tools and processes make the sealing process labor-intensive and time-consuming. With the help of a combination of modern drive technologies, heating technologies, and control technologies, the cut edges of contoured components can also be formed in a single process step. The base for this enhanced process is the engineering of forces, speeds, and thermal conditions. These process parameters are determined in experiments and transferred to suitable models.
