There have been many researches performed on the formability of axisymmetric or rectangular cup shapes in the deep drawing processes. But non-axisymmetric deep drawing processes rely upon empirical knowledge of experts in most cases. Especially, there have been few researches for multi-stage elliptical deep drawing processes. In this study, formability and thickness distributions of elliptical yoke products were predicted by using finite element analysis. The results of the analysis were compared with those of experiments for validity.

One of the most important steps to determine the blank shape and dimensions in deep drawing process is to calculate the surface area of the product. In general, the surface area of axisymmetric products is calculated by mathematical or graphical methods. However, in the case of non-axisymmetric products, it is difficult to calculate the exact surface area due to errors as separated components. Fortunately, it is possible for elliptical products to recognize the geometry of the product in the long side and short side by drafting in another two layers on AutoCAD software. So, in this study, a surface area calculating system is constructed for a design of blank shape of deep drawing products. This system consists of input geometry recognition module and three dimensional modeling module, respectively. The suitability of this system is verified by applying to a real deep drawing product. The system constructed in this study would be very useful to reduce lead time and cost for determining the blank shape and dimensions.

A computer-aided process design system for axisymmetric deep drawing products has been developed. An approach to the system is based on the knowledge based system. The hypothesized process outline of the deep drawing operations is generated in the geometrical design module of the system. In this paper, the module has been expanded. The rules of process design sechems for complex cup drawings are formulated from handbooks, experimental results and empirical knowhow of the field experts. The input to the system is final sheet-metal objects geometry and the output from the system is process sequence with intermediate objects geometries and process parameters, such as drawing load, blank holding force, clearance and cup-drawing coefficient.

Recently most of researches for deep drawing process using sheet metal have been performed on the formability of axisymmetric shape but there have not been any concrete reports on the formability of non-axisymmetric shape In addition the conventional shape radius of the punch and die has been determined by the trying-and-error using industrial experimence and post processing test and only approximate shape radius of the punch and die has been determined by the trying-and-error using industrial experience and post processing test and only approximate shape radius of the punch and die has been present So in this study the optimal shape radius of the punch and die in deep drawing process with biaxisymmetric blank shape would be proposed. Through the deep drawing experiment it is found that in order to obtain the optimal products especially shape radius of the punch and die in all processes is very important.

A method of determining an optimum blank shape for the non-circular deep drawing process is investigated. The rigid-plastic finite element method is introduced and the computer program code is developed. The ideal shape of a drawn cup with uniform wall height is assumed and metal flow is traced back-ward step by step to predict an initial blank shape of the ideal cup. For examples of the non-circular deep drawing products, three cases of drawn cup with quadrilateral punch shape are considered and optimum blank shapes for each case are proposed and compared with experimental results.

In this study, a CAD/CAM system for axisymmetric deep drawing processes has been developed. An approach to the system is based on the knowledge based system. Under the environment of CAD/CAM software of Personal Designer, the system has been written in UPL. The geometries of intermediate and final object in deep drawing process, including processes parameters are input for the CAD/CAM system. The input data can be obtained from the results of Pro_Deep. The parts drawing of die sets for each process is generated in tool design module of the CAD/CAM system. Also. the die assembly drawings can be obtained. NC commands for machining of the part can be generated in the developed CAD/CAM system.

Most of researches for deep drawing process have been performed on the formability of axisymmetric blank, but there is an insufficient study on the formability of non-axisymmetric blank. In addition, the conventional blank shape has been determined by the trial-and-error method using industrial experience and post processing test. Therefore only approximated shape of the blank can be presented. In this study, the optimal blank shape and concrete drafting method in deep drawing process with biaxisymmetric elliptical shape is proposed. Through the deep drawing experiment, it is found that the optimal blank shape gives the most uniform thickness of the products in the first process

In the present study, a contact search and check algorithm for general tool surface described by triangular FE patch is proposed. To improve numerical stability, SEAM element using the linear Coons interpolation has been used. To check the proposed algorithm, both clover cup and L-shape cup deep drawing processes are calculated. The computed results shows that the proposed contact algorithm can be successfully applied for sheet metal forming processes with general shaped tools.
