Complex components of the sheet metal forming process need to be designed with high precision and accuracy in order to prevent defects and misalignment of the end products. One of the sheet metal cool stamping process for these complex automotive components is burring which is the forming of a flange around a hole made in a piece of sheet metal. Springback is a common defect during the burring process. The aims of this paper are to investigate the springback effect and improve shape accuracy of hole burring by inner burring process of lower arm part for automotive lower arm part. The springback defects at hole burring usually happened on the inner burring process. Experimental stretch flanging for cold stamping process of inner burring process was used to investigate the reasons of springback effect around the burred hole for a lower arm part of high strength steel (HSS) sheets SPFH590. From the two designs of burring punch dies, the result shows the values of springback effect for clearance -0.15 which have a big gap at hole burring A arm and B arm diameters, are larger than clearance -0.34 which have small gap for inner burring process of lower arm part. The experimental analysis shows that springback is proportionally related to the punch-die clearance parameter of the tool profile where the springback increase as the clearance increases.

In sheet metal forming process, the input process parameters scatter and considerably result in unreliablity in practical production. Optimization for sheet metal forming process is often considered as a multi-objective problem. An optimizition strategy for high strength steel (HSS) sheet metal forming process was suggested based on response surface methodology (RSM). Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) method was introduced to design the rational experimental samples; the objective function was defined based on cracking factor wrinkle factor and severe thinning factor; the accurate response surface for sheet metal forming problem was built by Least Square Method; Multi-objective Genetic Algorithm(MOGA) was adoped in optimization and Pareto solution was selected. The strategy was applied to analyze a HSS auto-part, the result has proved this method suitable for optimization design of HSS sheet metal forming process.

In high strength sheet metal forming process of body part, crack, wrinkle and severe thinning are the main faults usually. The degree of the faults varies with the change of input process parameters. Optimization for sheet metal forming process of body part is often considered as a multi-objective problem. Design of experiment method and genetic algorithm are often combined together to cope with this multi-objective optimization problem. High strength steel sheet metal forming process is relatively complex and difficult. An intelligent multi-objective optimization strategy for high strength sheet metal forming process was suggested based on genetic algorithm. Latin Hypercube Sampling method was introduced to design the rational experimental samples; the objective function was defined based on crack factor, wrinkle factor and severe thinning factor; the accurate response surface model for sheet metal forming problem was built; Multi-objective genetic algorithm was adopted in optimization and Pareto solution was selected. The strategy was applied to analyze a rocher. The result has proved this strategy suitable for optimization design of sheet metal forming process .

The feasibility of using modern computers in manufacturing has evolved an era in the development of several new sheet metal forming process. The concept of profile forming technique has been investigated for production of sheet metal components. Profile forming is a very promising technology to manufacture sheet metal producs by CNC controlled movement with simple forming tool. Profile forming was developed as a flexible, alternative manufacturing method to effectively prototype stampings and produce in small lots. Cylindrical Cup is formed on Aluminium sheet of grade Al 3003 (O) without using punch and die. Formability of material, maximum wall angle, Surface roughness, thinning of sheet and Microstructural characteristics of Aluminium sheet are studied.

Cold Metal

Single point incremental forming is one of the most intensely researched die-less manufacturing process. This process implies the usage of a CNC equipment or a serial robot which deforms a sheet metal with the help of a relatively simple tool that follows an imposed toolpath. As every cold metal forming process, besides the many given advantages it has also some drawbacks. One big drawback in comparison with other cold metal forming processes is the low accuracy of the deformed parts. The aim of this research is to investigate the sheet metal bending mechanism through finite element method analysis. The results shows that the shape of the retaining rings has a big influence over the final geometrical accuracy of the parts manufactured through single point incremental forming.
