Recently many automotive parts have been made with stainless steels by deep drawing processes, But there are various problems occurred in deep drawing works of stainless steels compared with low carbon steels. For the severe deep drawing of complex cylindrical housing optimum process planning is required to eliminate intermediate annealing improve shape accuracy and maintain surface integrity without drawing defects such as tears wrinkles and scratches or galling. Therefore in this study a sample process planning of the severe of the severe deep drawing process is applied to a complex cylindrical housing needed for a 6 multi-stepped deep drawing of type STS 305 . A series of experiments are performed to investigate optimum process variables such as drawing rate radius and clearance. Through experiments the variations of the thickness strain distribution and hardness distribution in each drawing step are observed. Also the effects of other factors on formability such as drawing oil, blank holding force and die geometry are examined and discussed.

The present study is focused on the deep drawability and product qualities of ultra thin beryllium copper sheet metal. The goal of this research is to investigate the limit drawing ratio in deep drawing of ultra thin beryllium copper metal. For the experiment, beryllium copper(C1720, $50{\mu}m$ in thickness) is used. Tensile test are also carried out to find out the material properties. Deep drawing experiments are carried out in Universal Testing Machine(UTM) to obtain limit drawing ratio. Deep drawing tests are carried out for various specimen sizes. Teflon film is used as a lubricant and constant blank holding force is imposed. Sheet thickness and surface hardness are measured along radial direction after deep drawing. Thickness is measured using optical microscope. For beryllium copper(C1720), the maximum LDR of 2.4 is obtained when the die shoulder radius is 20 or 30 times of sheet thickness.

To investigate the evolution of deformation texture in dual phase (DP) steels during deep-drawing deformation, deep-drawing experiments were performed. Microtexture measurements were conducted using electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) to analyze texture evolution. A rate-sensitive polycrystal model was used to predict texture evolution during deep-drawing deformation. In order to evaluate the strain path during deep-drawing deformation, a steady state was assumed in the flange part of a deep-drawn cup. A ratesensitive polycrystal model successfully predicted the texture evolution in DP steels during deep-drawing deformation. The final stable orientations were found to be strongly dependent on the initial location in the blank. Texture analysis revealed that the deep drawability of DP steels decreases as the true strain in the radial direction of the deep-drawn cup increases during deep-drawing deformation.

The formability of DP steels can be affected by not only initial texture but also deformation texture evolved during plastic deformation. To investigate the evolution of deformation texture during deep drawing, deep drawing process for DP steels was carried out experimentally. A rate sensitive polycrystal model was used to predict texture evolution during deep drawing process. In order to evaluate the strain path during deep drawing, a steady state was assumed in the flange part of deep drawn cup. A rate sensitive polycrystal model successfully predicted the texture development in DP steels during deep drawing process. It was found that the final stable orientations were strongly dependent on the initial location in the blank.

The effects of internal air-pressing on deep drawability are investigated in this study to increase the deep drawability of aluminum sheet. The conventional deep drawing process is limited to a certain limit drawing ratio(LDR) beyond which failure will occur. The intention of this work is to examine the possibilities of relaxing the above limitation through the deep drawing with internal air-pressing, aiming towards a process with an increased drawing ratio. The idea which may lead to this goal is the use of special punch that can exert high pressure on the internal surface of deforming sheet during the deep drawing process. Over the ranges of conditions investigated for Al-1050, the local strain concentration at punch nose radius area was decreased by internal air-pressing of punch, and the deep drawing with internal air-pressing was proved to be very effective process for obtaining higher LDR.

This paper describes a computer aided process planning system called "Deep-Drawing", "Deep-Drawing" is designed for the drawing sequence of cylindrical and rectangular cups with or without taper and flange. The computer program has written in BASIC language with personal computer. Design Rules for process planning are formulated from process limitation, plasticity theory and experimental results including the know-how of many manufacturing factories. "Deep-Drawing" Capabilities include the analysis of drawing sequence by the determination of optimal drawing ratio, the determination of intermediate shape, dimensions, punch and die radius etc., the calculation of drawing loads and blank holder force to perform each drawing step, and the graphic outputs for the operation sheet.tputs for the operation sheet.

A practical example of the axisymmetric deep drawing process is simulated by the elastic-plastic finite element analysis using updated Lagrangian approach considering the large deformation. An approach is suggested to solve the problem of the ductile fracture that may encounter during the deep drawing process. The result can be applied to the design of the die for the axisymmetric deep drawing.

Deep Drawing공정은 2차원 박판(Sheet Metal)에 그림이나 글자를 인쇄한 다음, 박판을 다이에 고정하고 펀치로 눌러서 3차원의 제품을 생산하는 소성가공의 한 방법이다. 그러므로, 2차원 평면인 박판에 어떻게 적절히 인쇄하여, 가공 후의 3차원 제품에 원하는 그림과 글자가 나타나게 할 수 있는지가 문제가 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Deep Drawing공정을 거쳐 완성된 제품을 측정한 후, 형상 역공학(Reverse Engineering) 기술을 이용하여 측정 데이터(Measured Points Data)를 입력으로 하는 매개변수 곡면 (Parametric Surface)을 만들고, Deep Drawing공정 전의 박판에 대한 매개변수 곡면을 만든 다음 두 곡면간의 매핑을 통해 위의 문제점을 해결하고자 한다.

The square cup deep drawing simulations for hydraulic counter pressure deep drawing are carried out by the finite element method and the formability factors which affect to the formability in case of that process are investigated. As a result, it is found that the thickness distributions keep the higher quality than that of the conventional deep drawing, and the maximum pressure increased the thickness at the die profile regions of blank. But friction coefficient decreased the thickness at the same regions.

Multi-stage deep drawing is an important sheet metal forming process. The deformation mechanisms of sheet metals during forming processes are complicated mainly due to the geometry and the lubrication of tools involved, the formability and the anisotropic behaviour of the material. The multi-stage deep-drawing processes including normal-drawing, reverse-drawing, and re-drawing are analyzed by use of the rigid-plastic finite element method. The anisotropic behaviour represented by r-value can be incorporated into the formulation. Punch/die loads and thickness distributions were obtained as results of simulating axisymmetric deep drawing processes. The computed results showed good agreements with experiments.
