This project aims to develop a novel forming technology for the production of metal bipolar plates for fuel cells: micro-roll forming. This poses a number of challenges particularly due to the low material thickness to be formed. These challenges include the development of advanced models that account for size effects in the process and represent the unique deformation conditions and material fracture behaviour. The project plans to produce prototypes and to compare part complexity with that achievable by conventional micro stamping. The intended outcome of the project includes advanced computer models for process design and the new micro-forming technology validated through extensive laboratory and plant trials.

本项目旨在开发一种用于生产燃料电池用金属双极板的新型成型技术：微辊成型。这提出了许多挑战，特别是由于要形成的材料厚度低。这些挑战包括开发先进的模型，这些模型可以解释工艺中的尺寸效应，并代表独特的变形条件和材料断裂行为。该项目计划生产原型，并将零件复杂性与传统微冲压技术进行比较。该项目的预期成果包括用于工艺设计的先进计算机模型和通过广泛的实验室和工厂试验验证的新微成形技术。
