Deep drawing involves conversion of flat thin sheet metal blanks into parts of desired shape. In the present investigation, the process parameters of warm forming are compared with those of Hydromechanical deep drawing. Warm deep drawing process of circular blanks in Ironing stage is investigated using a 20 T hydraulic press. Hydro-mechanical deep drawing is a process for producing cup shaped components with the assistance of a pressurized fluid. There is an increase in the drawability of low Carbon steel by increasing the oil gap (gap between punch and die) but to make exactly cylindrical shape, the cup is subjected to ironing in the later part of drawing operation. Thickness distribution which describes the quality of the drawn cup is compared in both warm and Hydromechanical deep drawing using experiments and finite element simulations. Keywords- Warm forming,Hydromechanical, deep drawing, Drawability.

Abstract WEIRKOTE PLUS is a Galfan-coated sheet steel. The sheet is conventional low-carbon steel normally used for galvanized sheets and strip. This digest will concentrate on the characteristics and properties of the Galfan coating which is nominally a 95% zinc-5% aluminum alloy. The coating on Weirkote Plus is ideal for a variety of tough applications. It is excellent for products that require deep drawing and it combines extra corrosion resistance with superior formability. This datasheet provides information on composition and physical properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: Zn-41. Producer or source: Weirton Steel Corp.

An important challenge confronted when using blanking to machine sheet metal is the treatment of the shearing force in demand for great strength and heavy stock. One of the methods used to decrease the force wanted is the increase of a punch shear angle. In this work, experiments were conducted to study the effect of shear angle for blank has a diameter (50 mm) on shear force of a low carbon steel sheet (AISI 1008). Low carbon steel is a very common material used in fabrication of sheet metal components, with thickness of (0.5 mm). Tools used in the blanking tests were one traditional flat end punch and four different bevel sheared rooftop punches, which rooftop punches were compared to. and it (0°, 5°, 10°, 15°, 20°) a punches diameter (49.95 mm) by clearance (0.025mm) for each side , with a blanking speed (500mm/min). A special blanking die set is designed and manufactured and was a blank cut by a hydraulic press whose capacity (20 ton). The results showed that the blanking forces of (AISI 1008) low carbon steel metal could be decreased radically with best bevel punch geometry. Using (10°) shear angle at the punch end, the cutting forces decreased up to (90%) compared to the ones of the traditional flat end tool

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.
