Maintaining the required dimensional accuracy after springback becomes the main concern of sheet-forming die designers when formability is secured through beforehand tryouts. As a part to build guidelines for springback control in automobile frame forming, experiments are carried out to show the effects of process parameters, such as holding force, blank size, and lubrication, on corner angles of channels formed by U-bending or by square-cup drawing and trimming. The results predicted by a commercial FE package were compared with the experiment and the current limitations on springback evaluation were closely discussed.

Finite element simulation with experimental analysis of Taguchi's orthogonal array was carried out to know the effects of material and forming parameters on the cup earing and skewness. It was revealed that the planar anisotropy was the most influencing factor in the cup ear formation whereas blank holding force and material properties such as strength and thickness deviation at the coil edge had a relatively high effect on the cup skewness.

Experiments on the drawability of squared boxes have been performed under various working conditions. In the present work, the pattern of material flow and the local change in the thickness of shell are used as the measures of drawability, and they are measured using the photo-etching technique. The effects of the size of draw bead, the magnitude of blank holding force and the condition of lubrication on the drawability of squared boxes have been analyzed.

Assuring required dimensional tolerance after spingback becomes the main concern of sheet-forming die designers when formability is secured through previous tryout. As a part to build a guideline to control springback in automobile frame forming, experiments are carried out to show the effects of process parameters, such as holding force, blank size, and lubrication, on corner angles of channels formed by U-bending or by square-cup drawing and trimming. The results are resented in the viewpoint of evaluating parameters.

To optimization of mlod for fineblanking forming of sector gear of recliner, it was analyzed the effect of clearance, V-ring height, V-ring position, blank holding force and counter punch force. In case of 0.003 mm of clearancs, the finest shear plane was obtained, but optimization between die and punch clearance was 0.005 mm. The height of V-ring was 0.7 mm. In case of increasing of hold force, the size of shear plane got better and the decrement of thickness became smaller. Both the size of shear plane and the decrement of thickness increased according to increasing of counter punch force.

The wrinkling in the flange and wall of a part is a predominent failure mode in stamping of sheet metal parts. In many cases this wrinkling may be eliminated by appropriate control of the blank holding force(BHF), but BHF affects the draw depth. Although the wrinkles of flange have been made in the incipient stage of drawing, if the height of wrinkles is maintained under a prescribed limit by decrease or extinction of wrinkles in the course of drawing, small BHP can be allowed so that the depth of drawing could be increased. Authors research the variation of the wrinkles in flange in the course of square cup drawing by using aluminium A1015 and aluminium alloy A5052.

Computer simulations and test trials were carried out to obtain the optimal stamping conditions of the die design of the laser welded automotive body. The stamping process including gravity deflection bead calibration binder wrap, forming and spring back was simulated and compared with the results obtained from test trials. The production variables were determined from a preliminary operation and they were investigated in the simulation and the test trials. The formability was tested under the various conditions, such as the initial position of blank, blank holding force, corner radius and the shape of drawbead. Sound products without fracture, wrinkling and excessive weldline movement were produced by applying results obtained this investigation.

The square cup drawing of magnesium alloy AZ31 $(aluminum\;3\%,\;Zinc\;1\%)$ sheets was studied by experimental approach in various temperatures (200, 250, 300, 350, $400^{\circ}C$) when blank holding force (BHF) was controlled in real-time. And so on, the drawability was measured with the different die and punch coating. The square cup drawing test was performed by three different coated punches (CrN, TiCN, Non-coated). BHF was set about 2.0 KN, forming speed was 50 mm/min, blank thickness were 0.5, 1.0mm and the cup size was 40 mm by 60 mm after forming. The experimental data of square cup drawing test show that the tools coating and temperature were effect on the drawbility.

A new experimental model for determining drawbead forces, which modifies the dieface of Nine's experimental model, is introduced and the better validity of the drawbead opening and restraining forces of new model than those of Nine's is demonstrated. While Nine's model considers a blank holding force as one of forming variables, new model excludes it by removing blank holder in the dieface. The comparison of the strains found by FEM simulation of automotive fender draw forming process with those measured in a formed panel recommends the new model for accurate drawbead forces.

The wrinkling in the flange and wall of a part is a predominant failure mode in stamping of sheet metal parts. In many cases this wrinkling may be eliminated by appropriate control of the blank holding force(BHF), but BHF affects the draw depth. Gotoh had studied the wrinkles under $20{\mu}$ in height. In general, the height of wrinkles could be limited under $200{\mu}$ practically. Therefore small BHF can be allowed so that the depth of drawing could be increased. This paper represents the variation of the wrinkles of flange in the part of cup drawing by using aluminium alloy A1050 and A5052. This simulation is used by the explicit finite elements code $PAM-STAMP^{TM}$. The computed results are compared with the experimental results to show the validity of the analysis.
