The utilization of elastomers in forming technologies

Abstract

The project developed within the bachelor study (branch B2339-00 Mechanical engineering) deals with creation of a review of technologies in the field of forming using elastomers to manufacture desired parts. On the basis of studying literature focused on forming problems the review of these special forming methods and their brief description were developed. Further, the project includes examples of forming machines currently using these methods and appropriate products. The data were obtained from internet sources
