In recent days deep-drawing is one of the most important methods used for sheet metal forming. The geometries of die/blank holder and punch are one of the parameters for deep-drawing. This paper presents an attempt to determine the effect of different geometries of die/blank holder, punch radii and blank holding force on deep drawing process for the formability of DP Steel of 1mm sheet. The numerical simulations are performed for deep drawing of cylindrical cups at a constant frictional coefficient of 0.12 and different blank holding forces of 10, 15 and 20kN are used. For numerical simulation PAM STAMP 2G a commercial FEM code in which Hollomon’s power law and Hills 1948 yield’s criterion is used. The die/blank holder profile used with an angles of α=0°, 12.5°, 15° and die/punch profile with a radii of R= 6 and 8mm were simulated to determine the influence of punch force and thickness distribution on the limit drawing ratio. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of tool geometries on drawability of the deep-drawing process.

In this paper, the drawability of two-layer (steel-brass) sheets to produce square cup, is investigated through numerical simulations, and experimental tests. Each material has its own benefits and drawbacks in terms of its physical, chemical and mechanical properties, so that the point of this investigation is taking the benefits of different materials, like (low density, high strength and resistibility of corrosion), at the same time and in a one part. ANSYS18 software is used to simulate the deep drawing process of laminated sheet. The deep drawing processes for square cup were carried out under various blank holder loads with different lubrication conditions (dry and lubricant) and with variable layer arrangement. The materials were low carbon steel st1008 and brass CuZn30 sheets with thickness of 0.5mm0and 0.58mm respectively. The thickness of laminated sheet blank was 1.1 mm and its diameter was 83 mm. The drawn cups with less imperfections and satisfactory thickness distribution were formed in this study. It is concluded the greatest thinning appear in the corner of the cup near the punch radius due to extreme stretching take place in this area. Experimental forming load, blank holder load, and thickness distribution are compared with simulation results. Good agreement between experimental and numerical is evident.

The conventional deep drawing process is limited to a certain Limit Drawing Ratio (LDR), beyond which localized wall thinning and rupture occur. One way to increase the LDR is to try to capture the onset of necking and to adjust process parameters in order to delay or avoid necking. This paper describes a method for monitoring the wall thickness of a cup during the deep drawing process. Measurement utilizes a noncontact ultrasound gauge that is located orthogonally to the drawn cup’s wall and is immersed in oil to create an acoustic coupling. Monitoring is based upon a deep drawing process model using a thin blank with a round cross-section. Thickness distribution along a longitudinal axis is predicted and is used as a trajectory to track in-process thinning variations that may lead to tearing. The robustness of the measurement system is examined by applying the technique in different experiments. Results show that in-process measurements correlate well with grid strain analysis of a formed sheet metal part.

The formability of the drawn part in the deep drawing process depends not only on the material properties, but also on the equipment used, metal flow control and tool parameters. The most common defects can be the thickening, stretching and splitting. However, the optimization of tools including the die and punch parameters leads to a reduction of the defects and improves the quality of the products. In this paper, the formability of the camera cover by aluminum alloy A1050 in the deep drawing process was examined relating to the tool geometry parameters based on numerical and experimental analyses. The results showed that the thickness was the smallest and the stress was the highest at one of the bottom corners where the biaxial stretching was the predominant mode of deformation. The problems of the thickening at the flange area, the stretching at the side wall and the splitting at the bottom corners could be prevented when the tool parameters were optimized that related to the thickness and stress. It was clear that the optimal thickness distribution of the camera cover was obtained by the design of tools with the best values—with the die edge radius 10 times, the pocket radius on the bottom of the die 5 times, and the punch nose radius 2.5 times the sheet thickness. Additionally, the quality of the camera cover was improved with a maximum thinning of 25% experimentally, and it was within the suggested maximum allowable thickness reduction of 45% for various industrial applications after optimizing the tool geometry parameters in the deep drawing process.

A new deep drawing process of sheet metals is developed to facilitate small-lot production of deep cups with large drawing ratio. In this process, unlike the conventional deep drawing method, a few drawn cups are always stacked on the punch and used as a part of punch for the subsequent deep drawing of a given blank. Before drawing a new blank, a drawn cup which is in contact with the punch is stripped off. The repetition of such stripping and drawing operations makes it possible to carry out both the first-stage drawing and the subsequent slight redrawings in one drawing operation using only one pair of punch and die. In this paper, this new deep drawing process is applied to the production of tapered cups and the main feature of the process is shown.

The paper describes a method which has been developed for obtaining the limiting drawing ratio of titanium and aluminum alloys, and determines the moment of failure of the work-piece. This method is based not only on the use of Forming Limit Diagram (FLD) in predicting the failure of the blank, but also the using method of variable parameters of elasticity in determining the stress-strain state in deep drawing process.

A simulation of deep drawing process on the sheet metal was done by using Dynaform, the influence of blank holder force, deep drawing speed and friction coefficient on the forming speed of sheet metal in the deep drawing process were got. The forming speed of sheet metal determines the quality of deep drawing, in the deep drawing process the blank holder force and the deep drawing speed are controllable parameters, the friction coefficient can be intervened and controlled, and it’s a manifestation of the interaction of all parameters, the main factors which influence the friction coefficient just have blank holder force, deep drawing speed and lubrication except the material. The conclusion of this study provides the basic data for the analysis of the lubrication of mould, the study of lubricant and the prediction of the service life of deep drawing die.
