Resumo
A estampagem incremental tem se destacado como uma alternativa eficiente para a conformação de chapas metálicas, especialmente de ligas com elevada resistência mecânica. Este trabalho avalia o comportamento mecânico, microestrutural e a formabilidade de um aço inoxidável austenítico com elevado teor de manganês, bem como a influência da geometria da peça no comportamento de fratura durante a estampagem incremental. A composição química foi determinada por espectroscopia de emissão óptica, caracterizando uma liga austenítica modificada. Ensaios de tração foram realizados em diferentes orientações em relação à direção de laminação, acompanhados por análise metalográfica. A formabilidade foi avaliada por meio da curva limite de conformação (CLC) e da curva limite de fratura (CLF), obtidas por estampagem incremental. Os resultados indicaram elevada resistência mecânica, comportamento anisotrópico e maior formabilidade associada aos caminhos de deformação não proporcionais.

Abstract
Incremental sheet forming has emerged as an efficient alternative for shaping metallic sheets, particularly highstrength alloys. This study evaluates the mechanical behavior, microstructure, and formability of a high-manganese austenitic stainless steel, as well as the influence of part geometry on fracture behavior during incremental sheet forming. The chemical composition was determined by optical emission spectroscopy, confirming a modified austenitic alloy. Tensile tests were performed along different orientations relative to the rolling direction, followed by metallographic analysis. Formability was assessed using the Forming Limit Curve (FLC) and Fracture Forming Limit Curve (FFLC), obtained through incremental sheet forming tests. The results revealed high mechanical strength, anisotropic behavior, and enhanced formability associated with non-proportional strain paths.
