Surface Pressure Distribution

Shortened product development processes in automotive industry combined with the upcoming lack of experts do challenge sheet metal part production fundamentally. Tryout time and manufacturing costs of large forming dies today are significantly influenced by their digitally supported engineering. The forming process by such tools is beside other influences is affected by elastic deformations of forming dies and press structure as well as contact areas between die and sheet metal part. In deep drawing such contact areas are influenced by the blank properties and the flange behavior in terms of thickening and thinning. Recent developments in sheet metal forming simulation do consider advanced friction models and structural modeling of die and press components improving simulation accuracy. Nevertheless thinning or thickening of sheet metal results into localized surface pressure distribution during deep drawing. For this reason, it is not sufficient to use the currently common practice of homogeneous surface pressure distribution in sheet metal forming simulation. In this respect, this paper presents a numerical approach for consideration of straining effects in the sheet metal part during forming operation. For this purpose, a systematic process improvement was developed in this paper to identify contact areas via a numeric simulation parameter. Validating the numerical investigation, a rectangle cup die is used, considering major strain. The main results of this contribution for that reason show how simulated contact areas can be estimated by reverse engineering of real forming parts. Hereby straining based contact areas lead to a novel contact area design in process planning, resulting in efficient die tryout.

Simulated Analysis

To satisfy the local forming need of sheet-metal part, numerical simulation of SUS304 stainless steel deep-drawing with trilateral constrained slot were carried out by employing the analytical software ETA/dynaform5.5. The influence of different friction coefficient and holder force on the forming quality was analyzed by taking the inflow volume while parts forming 50mm as standard. The results show that the effect of trilateral constraint on the uneven flow and deformation of flange. And some measures were illustrated to improve the quality of some of these parts.

A new stretch-forming process based on discretely loading for three-dimensional sheet metal part is proposed and numerically investigated. The gripping jaw in traditional stretch-forming process is replaced by the discrete array of loading units, and the stretching load is applied at discrete points on the two ends of sheet metal. By controlling the loading trajectory at the each discrete point, an optimal stretch-forming process can be realized. The numerical results on the new stretch-forming process of a saddle-shaped sheet metal part show that the distribution of the deformation on the formed surface of new process is more uniform than that of traditional stretch-forming, and the forming defects can be avoided and better forming quality will be obtained.

Profile Change

In this paper, a visualisation system will be discussed that can be used to capture the deformation profile of the sheet blank during sheet metal forming processes, such as deep drawing and shape forming. The visualisation system utilizes a 2D laser displacement sensor for deformation profile acquisition. The sensor is embedded in the die and the laser propagates through the die to detect the profile change of the specimen concealed in the die during operation. The captured profile data will be collected, manipulated and transferred to a monitor for display via a controller. This visualisation of the deformation profile will provide engineers and researchers with an intuitive means of analysing and diagnosing the deformation process during sheet metal forming.

In an optimization problem, different candidate solutions are compared with each other, and then the best or optimal solution is obtained which means that solution quality is fundamental. Topology optimization is used at the concept stage of design. It deals with the optimal distribution of material within the structure. Altair Inspire software is the industry's most powerful and easy-to-use Generative Design/Topology Optimization and rapid simulation solution for design engineers. In this paper Topology optimization is applied using Altair inspire to optimize the Sheet metal Angle bracket. Different results are conducted the better and final results are fulfilling the goal of the paper which is minimizing the mass of the sheet metal part by 65.9%  part and Maximizing the stiffness with Better Results of Von- Miss Stress Analysis,  Displacement, and comparison with different load cases.  This can lead to reduced costs, development time, material consumption, and product less weight.

New Criterion

Wrinkling is one of the primary failure modes in deep drawing of sheet metal parts. Previous studies showed that the second principle stress can be a measure for the initiation and growth of wrinkles. The wrinkling analysis is usually made with using conical cup geometries. Recent experiments and numerical simulation results at the Institute for Metal Forming Technology (IFU) showed that the wrinkling analysis using simple conical cup geometries is not suitable for description of complex wrinkling conditions for real deep drawing processes. In the presented experimental results, fender shaped geometry was chosen as an example. During deep drawing of this geometry, different wrinkling formulation mechanisms were observed. Regarding these wrinkling mechanisms, a new wrinkling limit curve can be determined. By use of this new wrinkling limit curve, it is possible to detect the occurrence of wrinkles in each area of the formed sheet metal part until the wrinkle is finally formed.

Unfolding Method

The unfolding is the first step for the manufacturing of the sheet-metal part, which plays a major role for the accuracy and quality of the final product. Unfortunately, the inefficiency of the traditional drawing-based method made the process boring and sometime confusing. The CAD method made benefit for the designer. By means of the 3D modeling kernel and the mathematic model of unfolding process, the automatic design system of sheet-metal part was developed, in which the models are parametric and in 3D environment.
