Deep drawing is an important process used for producing cups from sheet metal in large quantities. The process parameters and viscosity of fluid is maintained the major role in the hydro forming-deep drawing process. Hydraulic pressure can enhance the capabilities of the basic deep drawing process for making metal cups. Hydraulic pressure contributes positively in several ways to the deep drawi...

This paper presents evaluation and effect of blank radius on radial stresses through mathematical formulations in hydroforming deep drawing process using castor oil medium. Hydraulic pressure can enhance the capabilities of the basic deep drawing process for making cups. In hydroforming deep drawing process, applying the hydraulic pressure on blank periphery in radial direction. It is obtained ...

In the present study, the finite element analysis of the hot deep drawing process of commercially pure (CP) titanium has been performed without the blank holder in order to investigate the influence of temperature (T), die radius (Rd) and blank diameter (D) on the maximum punch force (Fp) and minimum thickness of the blank (t). Tensile tests were first conducted to extract...

The aim of this paper is to fabricate micro-gears via laser shock punching with Spitlight 2000 Nd-YAG Laser, and to discuss effects of process parameters namely laser energy, soft punch properties and blank-holder on the quality of micro-gears deeply. Results show that dimensional accuracy is the best shocked at 1690 mJ. Tensile fracture instead of shear fracture is the main fracture mode under...

Fukui’s conical cup test is the one of the formability characteristics evaluation for various sheet metals. The formability characteristics such as diametrical ratio, maximum drawing load, depth of cup up to fracture are to be evaluated. This test is related to drawing test. This test can be performed by using parameters such as friction, process parameters and without blank holder. In fukui’s ...

The hydroforming technology can realize overall forming of large storage tank’s bottom, but the quality is affected by many technological parameters. In view wrinkling and cracking defects integral bottom in hydroforming, a multi-objective optimization model established for process parameters including pre-expansion pressure, hydraulic blank holder force, fillet radius holder. Based on finite e...
