AB - © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. Solution heat treatment, forming and in-die quenching (HFQ) is a patented process to form complex shape metal components at a high efficiency and a low cost. Conventional experiment approaches to determine forming limit curves (FLCs) at different strain paths are not applicable for the HFQ forming process. A novel biaxial tensile test rig is designed to overcome the difficulties and determine the FLCs at high temperatures based on the commercial Gleeble machine. This test device employs the circle plate and connecting rod mechanism in order to achieve different strain states, such as uniaxial tension, plane strain and biaxial tension. Resistance heating and air cooling are adopted to obtain an isothermal environment and to control cooling rates in Gleeble respectively. The designs of the cruciform specimen for this test are also introduced in this paper.
