As important light-weight structure material, aluminum alloys have been widely used in automotive and aerospace industries. In the last years, the manufacturing of parts with high strength and good dimensional accuracy has become the main objective in industrial applications. Within the available aluminum alloys, the 7xxx series has attract the interest of the industrial designers due to the high yield strength and ultimate tensile strength they present. However, the formability of these alloys in as-received industrial condition is very poor at room temperature and various studies are being carried out to develop efficient warm and hot forming processes to form them industrially using heated tools. In the present paper, the W-Temper forming is studied as an alternative to the warm and hot forming processes. Heat treatment temperatures and critical times are presented and an industrial B-Pillar is formed to validate the new process. In the last chapter, the final mechanical properties of the part are reported, before and after a virtual e-coat process where the W-Temper forming is compared with a hot stamping process.

Industrial application of magnesium alloys is increasing in the last decade due to the very high mechanical strength to weight ratio they present. Typical applications are aeronautic parts but their use in the automotive industry is also growing. The bigger the reduction of the vehicle weight is, which can be obtain using these alloys, the bigger the energy saving will be in the near future. However, the formability of these alloys is poor and they are very difficult to be formed at room temperature. Several works have been presented by different authors on the positive influence the temperature increase has to form magnesium alloys. Normal process temperature is about 200-250°C. In this paper warm incremental forming of magnesium alloys is investigated. The work focuses in the formability limits of the alloys and the identification of the optimal process parameters. Aiming to obtain a homogeneous temperature in the forming areas, hot fluid is used as heating media. Experimental results for different temperatures are presented and final microstructures are related to the possible deformation mechanism.
