Abstract

Since the trend of using lighter alloys for many purposes is increasing nowadays, the production engineers have to study the workability of such new materials. Magnesium is one of the future materials, due to its vast nature resources. Its perfect strength to weight ratio gives the possibility of using it in many different applications. Its point of weakness is its bad cold formability which is not very much known till now. Almost only warm forming of magnesium is discussed in the technical literature. There are some possibilities of cold forming of magnesium presented in this paper, some experimental results and comparison between the mechanical properties before and after cold forming.
