In this study, the experiments of warm deep drawing were done with heated die, and with heated die and cooled punch in order to investigate the formability of ZA31 magnesium sheet alloy of warm deep drawing. For this, warm deep drawing experiments were executed under various temperature, punch velocity and blankholder force. The results of warm deep drawing with heated die showed that fracture occurred punch part at punch velocity of 75mm/min and punch stroke of 10mm under temperature of $100^{\circ}C\~250^{\circ}C$, but did not occure under temperature of $275^{\circ}C\~400^{\circ}C$. And fracture at punch stroke of 25mm did not occurre at punch part under punch velocity of 30mm/min and $250^{\circ}C$, but occured under punch velocity of 75 and 125 mm/min. Also the results of warm deep drawing with heated die and cooled punch showed that the temperature happening maximum height under punch velocity of 10-100mm/min was $225-250^{\circ}C$. And necking occurred at punch shoulder under $20\~150^{\circ}C$, but at die wall under $200\~300^{\circ}C$.

The characteristic of magnesium alloy is the most light in utility metal, the effect of electromagnetic wave interception, excellent specific strength and absorptiveness of vibration. Although magnesium alloy with above characteristic is a subject matter which is suitable in world-wide tendency of electrical component frame, sheet magnesium alloy is difficult to process. Therefore, forming analysis of sheet magnesium alloy and applying warm-working to process are indispensable. Among Finite element method, the static implicit finite element method is applied effectively to analyze sheet magnesium alloy stamping process, which include the forming stage. In this study, it was focused on the crack, wrinkling and spring back on sheet magnesium alloy stamping by the static implicit analysis. According to this study, the result of simulation will give engineers good information to access the forming technique on sheet magnesium alloy. And its application is being increased especially in the production of electrical component frame for the cost reduction, saving of defective ratio, and improvement of Productivity.

Structural components for aerospace, electronics and automobile industry are the main applications for magnesium alloys due to their lightweight and high specific strength. The adoption of magnesium alloys in sheet forming processes is still limited, due to their low formability at room temperature caused by the hexagonal crystal structure. In this paper, the authors aim to improve the formability of AZ31 magnesium alloy. For this, experiment and finite element analysis on used warm deep drawing process with a local heating and cooling technique were done. Both die and blank holder were heated at various warm temperature while the punch was kept at room temperature by cooling water.

The surface oxidation of magnesium was performed by Plasma electrolytic oxidation treatment method. And the optical reflectance spectra of the oxidation layers are studied. In the PEO process, the growth of the oxide layer take place at room temperature. Surface roughness of the obtained result, the average surface roughness is $0.08{\mu}m$ difference. The reason seems to the influence of the $Na^+$.

The purpose of this study is to confirm the improvement of formability of AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet by using local heating and cooling technique. For this, the experiments of warm deep drawing were done under the temperatures of $100^{\circ}C\~400^{\circ}C$, and the punch velocity of 10, 100mm/min. Also FE analysis under the temperatures of blankholder and die of $150^{\circ}C,\;225^{\circ}C\;and\;300^{\circ}C$ for tools(holder and die) was executed with considering heat teansfer. From the results, the formability of AZ31 magnesium alloy, espicially the temperatures of $225^{\circ}C\~250^{\circ}C$ for tools(holder and die)improved remarkably. And the experiments and simulations showed that necking under room temperature for tools occured under the part of punch shoulder while at $300^{\circ}C$ for tools, at the part of die shoulder.

In this study, it is investigated that the effect of material properties such as various temperature, forming speed and strain rates on formability and forming limits of Mg alloy sheet in square cup deep drawing. Since the sheet metal forming of Mg alloy is perform at elevated temperature, the effect of strain rates related with the forming temperature and forming speed is very important factor for formability and forming limits. Therefore, the investigation for process variables is necessary to improve formability and forming limits. Also, the effects of strain rate and thickness transformation were studied by the experimental and FE analysis using the square cup deep drawing. The temperature, forming speed, and strain rates were investigated. Forming of Mg alloy takes consider into temperature, proper forming speed and strain-rate the formed parts were good without defects fur forming limits.

A forming limit diagram (FLD) defines the extent to which specific sheet material can be deformed by drawing, stretching or any combination of those two. To determine the forming limit curve (FLC) accurately, it is necessary to perform the tests under well-organized conditions. In this study, the influence of several geometric or process parameters such as the blank shape and dimensions, strain measuring equipments, test termination time, forming speed and lubricants on the FLC is investigated.

Since Mg alloy has many attractive advantages among the practically used metals, many researchers have been studied to develop useful process and material. The crystal structure of Magnesium was hexagonal close-packed, so its formability was poor at room temperature. But formability was improved in high temperature with increasing of slip planes, twins, dynamic recrystallization. In this study The formability of AZ31B magnesium sheet is estimated according to the variable temperatures, forming speed, thickness, blank holding force. The results of deep drawing experiences show that the formability is well at the range from 200 to $250^{\circ}C$, 20 to 60 mm/min forming speed and 2.5 to 3KN blank holding force.
