text: 'Increasing material costs, decreasing availability, and ever-higher demands
on environmental compatibility and complexity require new strategies in the development
and production of functional components. Consequently, a combined approach from
the areas of design, material science, and manufacturing is mandatory, in order
to meet the requirements. Reducing the number of parts, using lightweight materials
and applying hybrid components with a multimaterial mix are possible solutions.
Nevertheless, conventional joining operations like welding or riveting are reaching
their limits in terms of material utilization, load-bearing capacity as well as
versatility of the process. Thus, innovative and versatile joining by forming
operations and process combinations are focus of current research. In this context,
the innovative process of orbital forming had been investigated as a joining by
forming operation to manufacture load-adapted hybrid functional components. By
tilting of one tool component during the process, a radial material flow is generated,
allowing the crimping of the two joining partners. Nevertheless, the load-bearing
capacity in axial direction could be identified as limiting factor for a possible
application. Therefore, the aim of this investigation is the development of a
fundamental process understanding on the influence of a novel geometrical adaption
of the joint on the resulting load bearing capacity. The influence of varying
geometrical proportions of the joint on the quality is evaluated, considering
the form filling, the geometrical properties of the components as well as the
maximum transmittable axial load. As joining partners, the dual-phase steel DP600
and the aluminum alloy EN AW-5754 with a thickness of 2.0 mm are used. '
