The door beam inside the car door is an key component to improve the security of passengers, most great automobile manufacturing companies use ultra-high strength steel plate to manufacture it,however, it is very difficult to form in room temperature,so commonly it is made by hot stamping but the cost is too high. This article gives a solution to deal with this problem by the use of FEM software in simulating and optimizing the forming process of one kind of ultra-high strength steel door beam in room temperature, and main study is in the influence of temperature on internal organization changes of the ultra-high strength sheet and springback by comparing the simulation result and real sample, and meanwhile convex roofs are added in the addendum to optimize the surface. It is helpful on how to design die face in manufacturing the related ultra-high strength steel parts.

Due to the deep drawing structure and box-shaped design in hot stamping, the typical ultra-high strength steel B-pillar was reasonably optimized to eliminate wrinkles in big end, assure the blank in the right position and meet the requirements of assembly. The finite element inverse algorithm was used to reverse the original blank of optimized part and production experiments of full-scaled part were performed to analyze the effect of optimized blank on the forming process.

To research the key factor that affect on material characteristic of hot stamping, this paper studied the spring-back problem of hot forming of the ultra-high strength steel, "U" shaped part by using the combination method of numerical simulation and experimental verification. By obtaining the data of BR1500 HS isothermal tensile test, it established a "U" shaped part of thermal-mechanical coupled model which is based on ABAQUS to analyze the influences of forming speed and holding time on the forming properties. Simulation analysis showed that: When the forming speed of sheet metal is faster than 35mm/s, the rebound value is small, and further increase has no significant effect on the rebound; after holding 6s, the temperature quenching would become stable. The results verify the reliability of the finite element model. Also the study has provided a theoretical basis for determining the process parameters of the type of steel hot forming.

A hot spline forming process of die-quenched gear drums using resistance heating of a side wall of a cup formed by cold deep drawing and ironing was developed. The side wall having uniform cross-sectional area is resistance-heated by passage of the current in the axial direction, the heated side wall of the drawn cup is ironed and is finally die-quenched. The gear drum was successfully formed and the hardness was between 400 and 500 HV. Not only the formability was improved but also the formed dram was hardly oxidised because of rapid resistance heating.

Ultra High Strength Steel (UHSS) hot stamping technology is a special process which can enhance the steel tensile strength to 1500MPa. Appling this technology in producing vehicle structure parts can make car lighter and safer. In China there are more and more automobile enterprises adopt this technology. To master and extend the skill, China Academy of Machinery Science & Technology (CAM) have done systematic research, such as the strengthen mechanism of the steel, hot stamping key devices designing, forming and quenching integrated mould designing, stamping process parameters optimization, etc.. By now, CAM has mastered the mass production technology of vehicle parts, which can guarantee its shape and tensile strength, and produced such typical parts as door-beam, B pillar, etc.. The paper is an introduction of the research work and achievement about UHSS hot stamping developed by CAM.

Recently, tubular-type coupled torsion beam axle, which is a component of the automotive rear suspension systems, has been developed by using ultra-high strength steel. It is manufactured by hot stamping process to enhance the strength and reduce springback. The hot stamping process is classified as a direct method and an indirect method according to forming sequence and quenching method, so-called die quenching or water quenching. Each of these methods has limitations in the aspect of dimensional accuracy and strength. Hybrid quenching is a new quenching method which sprays water to the tube directly in addition to die quenching. In this study, direct hot stamping with hybrid quenching was applied to produce an automotive tubular coupled torsion beam axle of ultra-high strength steel. This study proposes a simulation method of hybrid quenching for tubular beam and the hybrid quenching method was evaluated experimentally. Finally, the proposed hybrid quenching method has been found very effective in reducing the cooling time and thermal deformation.
