Abstract

This study was performed to solve the breaking problem in the fine blanking(FB) process of sector gears for car seat recliner using nickel chrome molybdenum steel(SNCM220) plate. The optimal design of embossing circle is changed to oval with labors' experiences and finite element analysis. The maximum principal stress and effective strain in a forming process are analyzed by commercial finite element software to solve the problems in embossing stage of FB process. As a result of FE analysis, the maximum principal stress in forming is lower than yield point of material. It is shown from experiments in the modified die that the formed gear does not break in embossing stage.
