Increasing demands on vehicle safety and weight reduction in the automotive industry lead to an increased use of “advanced high strength steels” for car body manufacturing purposes. Mentioned material grades are having high levels of tensile strength and are often used in conventional sheet metal forming processes. One of the most significant factors on quality of stamped components as well as its manufacturing process robustness is the friction between tool and sheet material. During the deep drawing process, superposition of tensile stresses is causing enlargement of the sheet surface by a few percent. This effect can damage the zinc layer. Due to that fact, lubricant has to keep tool and work piece separated in order to prevent adhesion and abrasion. For that very reason, sufficient amount of lubricant has to be applied onto the surface texture reservoirs. Furthermore, the viscosity of lubricant is mainly influencing its ability of wetting the surface. The aim of this study is to define the relationship between friction coefficient, surface enlargement and lubrication having different viscosities. In this investigation the same amount of lubricant with viscosity of ϑ=65 mm2/s, ϑ=200 mm2/s and ϑ=400 mm2/s was applied on strips made out of DP1000 and DC04 steel. Then, the strips were stretched uniaxially, and restraining forces were measured by strip draw test considering constant surface pressure and drawing speed. In this paper, the correlation between friction coefficient, viscosity and surface enlargement for two different sheet material grades is shown.

The state of deformation in deep drawing operations is characterized by superimposed stretching and bending (i.e. stretch-bending). Bending effects, especially for Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS) are known to influence the material formability. Traditional formability measures such as the Forming Limit Curve (FLC) fail to reliably predict stretch-bending formability. Consequently, to ensure an efficient and economical use of AHSS in the industrial application, current research work is focusing on the reliable numerical prediction of stretch-bending formability of AHSS sheets.Within this work, a phenomenological concept to predict the forming limit (e.g. the onset of necking) in deep drawing processes taking bending effects into account is presented. The proposed concept is based on curvature-dependent (i.e. regarding the principle curvatures κ1 and κ2 of the stretch-bend (convex) sheet surface) forming limit surfaces representing the probability of failure and is calibrated with experimental results from stretch-bending tests and conventional forming test such as a Nakazima test. The results of the phenomenological forming limit criterion are promising and show a more accurate prediction of the drawing depth at failure than the conventional FLC approach. The method contributes also to a probabilistic view on the forming limit of deep drawing parts.

Designing a new family of advanced high-strength steels (AHSSs) to develop automotive parts that cover early industry needs is the aim of many investigations. One of the candidates in the 3rd family of AHSS are the quenching and partitioning (QP) steels. These steels display an excellent relationship between strength and formability, making them able to fulfill the requirements of safety, while reducing automobile weight to enhance the performance during service. The main attribute of QP steels is the TRIP effect that retained austenite possesses, which allows a significant energy absorption during deformation. The present study is focused on evaluating some process parameters, especially the partitioning temperature, in the microstructures and mechanical properties attained during a QP process. An experimental steel (0.2C-3.5Mn-1.5Si (wt%)) was selected and heated according to the theoretical optimum quenching temperature. For this purpose, heat treatments in a quenching dilatometry and further microstructural and mechanical characterization were carried out by SEM, XRD, EBSD, and hardness and tensile tests, respectively. The samples showed a significant increment in the retained austenite at an increasing partitioning temperature, but with strong penalization on the final ductility due to the large amount of fresh martensite obtained as well.
