Honda Engineering Co., Ltd. developed an innovative servo press line that achieves the world’s highest level of productivity in producing deep-drawn automotive body panels. The innovative press production system was made so that the press forming conditions and panel transfer motions are adjusted to the dies very accurately for each part to be produced. The servo press line is planned to be expanded to Honda’s production plants on a global scale while allowing further evolution.

Die quenching of an AA2024 aluminum alloy billet was carried out using a servo press with ram motion control of WC-20mass%Co dies directly after solution heat treatment (SHT). The cylindrical billets were heated in an electric furnace and transferred to the press, then subjected to uniaxial compression with a reduction in height (Δh/h0) of 2%, 5% or 10% after SHT at 773 K or 823 K. The die quenching was successfully carried out without the precipitation hardening only on the billet after SHT at 823 K by sandwiching for 8 s. The subsequent artificial aging behavior at 463 K in an oil bath was investigated. It is found that the precipitation kinetics is accelerated in the die-quenched billets after SHT at 823 K. The peak hardness of the billet processed with 5% after SHT at 823 K is as high as that of the water-quenched billet, HV 149.0.

High strength steel sheets are increasingly used in automotive body parts with the aim of weight reduction, but their use urgently requires further improvement in sheet forming technology to overcome difficulties such as poor formability, dimensional inaccuracy, etc. On the other hand, servo press facilities are becoming increasingly used in industry and many attempts are being made to bring out their characteristic features for enhancing the formability of high strength steel sheets. Although some of these attempts have been successful in finding the advantages of servo presses for improving formability and dimensional accuracy, the mechanisms of such improvements have yet to be clarified in conjunction with the mechanical properties of the materials used. One of the most remarkable features of the servo press lies in its flexibility in slide motion control. It is thus effective to investigate the relevance of strain rate sensitivity of a material to the mechanism of improvement in formability enabled by the flexible slide motion of the servo press. However, very few studies have been carried out with material testing, material modeling, and numerical analyses combined with experimental verifications. In this study, Norton’s creep model was implemented in the FEM solver in order to take into account visco-elasto-plastic deformation including stress relaxation behavior. Parameters for the visco-elasto-plastic material model were identified through physical measurements and FEM simulations of uniaxial tension and crosshead displacement dwell tests, as shown in Fig. 1. The identified material model was applied to sheet forming simulations of an automotive body part and validity of the model was examined by comparing with stamping experiments using a servo press with a variety of slide motions. Numerical results with the identified material model showed the same tendency with respect to the slide motions as the experimental results. Stress relaxation behavior was found to be an important factor for improving formability enabled by modifying the slide motion.

High-speed scanning is a huge challenge to the motion control of step-scanning gene sequencing stage. The stage should achieve high-precision position stability with minimal settling time for each step. The existing step-scanning scheme usually bases on fixed-step motion control, which has limited means to reduce the time cost of approaching the desired position and keeping high-precision position stability. In this work, we focus on shortening the settling time of stepping motion and propose a novel variable step control method to increase the scanning speed of gene sequencing stage. Specifically, the variable step control stabilizes the stage at any position in a steady-state interval rather than the desired position on each step, so that reduces the settling time. The resulting step-length error is compensated in the next acceleration and deceleration process of stepping to avoid the accumulation of errors. We explicitly described the working process of the step-scanning gene sequencer and designed the PID control structure used in the variable step control for the gene sequencing stage. The simulation was performed to check the performance and stability of the variable step control. Under the conditions of the variable step control where the IMA6000 gene sequencer prototype was evaluated extensively. The experimental results show that the real gene sequencer can step 1.54 mm in 50 ms period, and maintain a high-precision stable state less than 30 nm standard deviation in the following 10 ms period. The proposed method performs well on the gene sequencing stage.

This paper proposes a novel high capacity servo press system with two servo motor inputs and high ratio force amplifier mechanism for metal forming. First, the press structure was expressed. The force amplifier was made of seven-bar mechanism which possesses quick-return character and high ratio force amplifier. The symmetric structure balanced the force in horizontal direction, and dispersed the forces on two transmission routes. In theoretical study of the new structure, kinematic and dynamic analyses were obtained by examining the geometry of the structure. The performance of press was discussed by example demonstration. Finally, the kinematic experiments and metal forming experiments were carried out on the prototype machine by using grating scale system. The measured data match the theoretical calculation well, which validates the feasibility of this new press mechanism.

This paper focus on a motion control card based on DSP, designed an interface communication between DSP and industrial PC. After a contrast about several methods of communication, this interface take the Dual-port RAM as the final way. This communication method regard the DRAM as the sharing storage unit, use the semaphores of the DRAM chip to prevent visiting the same address at same time on boths port and achieve the high speed communication between DSP and PC104.
