This article puts forward One-step forming simulation method to solve blank outline problems in the process of sheet metal forming. The blank outline curve is got from the simulated analysis of Groupware of Fender by one-step simulation in Dynaform 3D software for sheet forming, considering the final shape of the workpiece. It simulates three programs via three different shapes of blanks. And it compares and analyze the FLD diagram and forming results ,and then it gets the optimized blank shape. This way guides the mould design, and save the time of repairing moulds on the basis of producing qualified products. It overcomes the puzzle how to choose the blanks’ size and shape.
