Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an efficient method and apparatus for processing and changing physical characteristics of a metal workpiece into a target metal component.SOLUTION: Predetermined processing parameters are established for achieving a target metal component. The metal workpiece is secured onto a support during change of the physical characteristics. Impacts are applied to a surface of the workpiece multiple times for achieving the target metal component while controlling the impacts with the predetermined processing parameters. A sensor is provided for continuously sensing current physical conditions of the workpiece during the impacts. The predetermined processing parameters are changed into adjusted processing parameters and the impacts are changed in reaction to the current physical conditions of the workpiece obtained from the sensing and processing until the target metal component has been achieved. 【課題】金属ワークピースの物理的特性を目的の金属コンポーネントへと加工及び変更するための効率的な方法及び装置を提供する。【解決手段】目的の金属コンポーネントに到達するための既定の加工パラメータが確立される。物理的特性の変更中、金属ワークピースは支持体上に固定される。既定の加工パラメータにより衝撃を制御しつつ、目的の金属コンポーネントに到達するために、ワークピースの表面に複数回衝撃が与えられる。衝撃付与中、ワークピースの現在の物理的状態を継続的に感知するセンサが提供される。目的の金属コンポーネントに到達するまで、感知及び加工から得られるワークピースの現在の物理的状態に反応して、既定の加工パラメータは調整済み加工パラメータへと変更され、衝撃が変更される。【選択図】図4
