아이어닝 공정은 제품의 치수정밀도가 정확하게 조절괴는 정밀 금속 성형공정이다. 아이어닝 공정은 대개 냉간상태에서 행하여지며 그리고 때로는 단공정 대신에 다단식이 적 용된다. 본연구의 목적은 강소성 유한 요소법으로 단공정과 다단식 아이어닝 공정을 해석하 여 아이어닝 공정에 대한 적절한 설계변수와 최적 설계조건을 찾는데 있다. 본 연구에서는 공정설계게 있어서 공정변수를 다이의 원추각과 단의 개수로 주었다. 본 해석에서는 단공정 아이어닝과 다단식 아이어닝 공정의 성형하중, 응력과 변형도 분포 그리고 격자 변형을 계 산하였다 그리고 이 값들에 대한 공정 변수의 영향을 검토한 결과 성형하중과 격자 변형에 있어서 계산 결과와 잘 일치하였다.

This paper describes a research work on the development of computer-aided design system far the deep drawing & ironing of high pressure gas cylinder. An approach to the design system is based on the knowledge-based rules. Knowledge for the system is formulated from plasticity theories, handbook, experimental results and the empirical knowledge of field experts. This system has been written in AutoLISP on the AutoCAD Rl4.0 using personal computer. This system is composed of three modules which are input. process design and drawing.

In this paper. we will discuss in making large size cylindrical shells with multithickness wall sections such as straight, stepped, tapered sides. These shells are constructed of type 6061 O temper aluminum starting with a blanking size of 877 mm plate. Its diameter to length ratio of 1 to 2.78 and a 36.7％ wall reduction is achieved by our continuous deep drawing process. This process required no in-process annealing. But after cold working, these shells is performed heat treatment to T6 condition. These shells are used for the making of seamless LPG pressure vessels after the spinning process. This process is composed of deep drawing, reverse redrawing, drawing-ironing and several ironing processes. In the verification of forming process design, we used DEFORM code.

Cold ironing, as a post-forging operation of warm forged gears, needs a clear understanding of form errors due to die-elasticity and springback of component. In order to simplify the analysis of cold ironing, a single tooth instead of a whole gear component was investigated. The influence of initial surface roughness, die design, and die/workpiece interference has been examined experimentally and numerically. As a result the changes in geometrical profile, dimensions, and surface finish in a single tooth were observed. This study demonstrates that predicted dimensions can be achieved and surface finish also can be greatly improved.

The deep drawing and ironing (DDI) process involving the use of a high-capacity horizontal press is used for manufacturing acompressed natural gas (CNG) pressure vessel. However, some variables of the DDI process have been determined based on the experiences of workers, and the short die life needs to be improved for manufacturing the pressure vessel withhighquality and lowcost. In this study, process variables such as the draw ratio, distance between dies, radius of rounding of drawing die, and angle of ironing die are chosen to enhance the reliability and improve the die life based on previous studies and experiences. The draw ratio limits at which no tearing or wrinkling occurs are determined using FEA, and the distances between dies, radius of rounding of drawing die, and angle of ironing die are optimized by the DOE method. The results of the optimal process variables are compared with those of the existing DDI process for verifying their effectiveness.

Optimum tool design is carried out fur a multi-stage rectangular cup deep-drawing and ironing process with the large aspect ratio. Finite element simulation is carried out to investigate deformation mechanisms with the initial design made by an expert. The analysis considers the deep drawing process with ironing for the thickness control in the cup wall. The analysis reveals that the difference of the drawing ratio within the cross section and the irregular contact condition produce non-uniform metal flow to cause wrinkling and severe extension. For remedy, the modification guideline is proposed in the design of the tool and the process. Analysis results confirm that the modified tool design not only improves the quality of a deep-drawn product but also reduces the possibility of failure. The numerical result shows fair coincidence with the experimental one. After tryouts of the tool shape, the rectangular cup has been produced in the transfer press.

In deep drawing of sheet metal, there are many cases in which the uniform and thin wall thickness of the drawn products is more important than the bottom thickness. In this case, we can not easily get the deep drawn products with the uniform and precise wall thickness by only drawing process. Therefore in general the manufacturing processes which both the drawing and the ironing process are proceeded sequentially are used. But this method has the disadvantages of a cost-up, decrease of productivity and degradation of quality, because the ironing process is added after the drawing process. In this study, in order to improve those problems and to enhance the effect of deep drawing, the combined process of redrawing and ironing fur multistep drawing of cylindrical cups is used. In this experiment, we considered the characteristics of the combined process such as the relation between the drawing and ironing rates, the drawing limits and the forces needed for operations. The suggested force prediction shows that it can successfully represent experimental results.

In this work, finite element investigations were carried out to manufacture a seamless aluminum liner without crack generation using four-stage deep drawing followed by two-stage ironing process. In order to predict the crack generation during the liner manufacturing process, the Normalize Cockroft-Latham(NCL) which is one of ductile fracture criteria was adopted. In addition, the tensile tests were carried out to obtain the critical value of NCL by comparing the experimental and FE simulation results. From this, various case studies based on FE simulation were carried to obtain the optimum die designs which can prevent the crack generation during ironing processes. Finally, the aluminum liner was successfully made using obtained die designs so that requirements were met in terms of thickness and height of the liner.
