This paper presents a new methodology for complete solution of general shape deep drawn parts. Evaluation of forming severity, estimation of the punch load and prediction of the thickness variation are the major results obtained in this work. The punch work is the summation of the homogenous work of flange deformation and bending and frictional works. To evaluate the strain energy of the flange...

In this research, two new methods that improve the drawing depth of deep-drawing processes have been introduced. In the first technique, by creating ridges on the punch surface, the stress concentration is decreased on the blank near the punch edge, in turn increasing the drawing depth. The second method is based on the principle of reducing resistant force in the flange area between the die, t...

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...

Although deep drawing process in the macro scale are well developed, the known concepts cannot be applied to micro deep drawing through directly scale down the specimen and tooling size due to the so-called size effects. Therefore, tensile test and micro deep drawing experiments were conducted to generate the knowledge for the micro deep drawing process. Stainless steel 304 foils with 4 differe...

Primljeno (Received): 2011-10-10 Prihvaćeno (Accepted): 2012-02-09 Original scientific paper It is well-known from practice that only some cups whose height is smaller than diameter can be successfully drawn in one step. Many steps require more tools and larger total manufacturing costs. The main objective of this study was to minimize the number of deep-drawing steps. The paper presents the ap...

In this paper to predict the critical conditions for onset of elastic-plastic wrinkling of flange of a two-layered circular blank during the deep-drawing process a closed-form semi-analytical elastic-plastic solution using Tresca yield criterion alongwith deformation theory in plasticity with considernig the perfectly plastic behaviour of materials is presented. Simplifying the presented soluti...

in this paper, formation of wrinkling in bimetal deep drawing process has been investigated by the analytical, numerical and experimental methods. the effects of width of flange, fillet radii of matrix and punch, clearance of blank holder, contact conditions and relative thickness of two sheets on the number and height of wrinkle waves are studied. clearance and contact conditions have the grea...

Low qualified rate and inferior quality frequently occurring in the general deep drawing process of a certain box-shaped part, now use hydroforming to optimize forming process, in order to study the effect of hydroforming for improving the quality and formability, purposed five process schemes: general deep drawing, active hydroforming, passive hydroforming, general deep drawing combined with a...

in sheet metal forming processes, one-stage production of conical-cylindrical parts with high accuracy is very difficult due to wrinkling and rupturing. hydrodynamic deep drawing assisted by radial pressure is one of the most applicable procedures in sheet hydroforming process on the point of producing conical-cylindrical parts. in this paper, forming pressure path is investigated as one of the...

The developers of high aspect ratio components aim to minimize the processing stages in deep drawing processes. This study elucidates the application of microridge punches in multistage deep drawing processes. A microridge punch improves drawing performance, thereby reducing the number of stages required in deep forming processes. As an example, the original eight-stage deep forming process for...
