In this study, the experiments of warm deep drawing were done with heated die, and with heated die, and blankholder, and cooled punch in order to investigate the formability of AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet in warm deep drawing. For this, warm deep drawing experiments were executed under various temperatures and punch velocities. The results of warm deep drawing with heated die showed that fracture occurred around the punch part at punch velocity of 75mm/min and punch stroke of 10mm under temperature range of 373-523K, but did not occur under temperature range of 548-673K even punch stroke of 25mm. And fracture at the punch stroke of 25mm and the temperature of 523K did not occur under the punch velocity of 30mm/min, but occurred under punch velocity of 75 and 125mm/min. Also warm deep drawing with heated die and blankholder, and cooled punch showed that the temperature range happening maximum height under punch velocity of 10-100mm/min was around 498-523K. Finally, with heating and cooling technique necking of AZ31 magnesium alloy occurred at punch shoulder part under the temperature range of 293-423K, but at die wall part under the temperature range of 473-573K.

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.

In order to obtain the optimal products in deep drawing process elliptical deep drawing tests were carried out with several shape radii of the punch and die. As parameters on testing shape radii of the punch and die were selected, In addition the conventional shape radii have been determined by trial=and-error using industrial experience and post processing test and only approximate shape radii of the punch and die have been presented. The optimal shape radii of the punch and die in elliptical deep drawing process with biaxisymmetric blank shape are proposed. In this study we suggest the appropriate conditions to be applicable to the catual manufacturing processes through the experiment and finite element method.

'There are a lot of process variables, exerted influence on the formability of products, in deep drawing process. Particularly, it is important that the punch and die shape radius of the process variables. Though researches have been performed on the deep drawing of sheet metal forming, like this study, but it is insufficient the actual circumstances that researches for process variables of the non-axisymmetric deep drawing products. In this study, An effect on thickness distribution is grasped as alteration of the punch and die shape radius in the process of non-axisyrnmetric deep drawing products, and then the optimal punch and die shape radius were presented, they were verified by the numerical analysis method (FEM).

Formability in deep drawing process depends not only on a drawability of workpiece material but also on process conditions such as die punch comer radius, lubricant conditions, punch-die clearance etc. For instance, bending resistance should be reduced by increasing die round appropriately, drawing load should be minimized by improving the lubricant condition between die and material, and blanking load should be increased by selecting a pertinent punch round and by augmenting the friction resistance in punch. In this study, a multi-stage deep drawing process is analyzed using ABAQUS. The effects of formability factors, such as die shoulder radius, punch-die clearance and friction coefficient are investigated, and the results are also discussed in detail.

During the deep drawing process an initially flat blank is clamped between the die and the blank holder after which the punch moves down to deform the clamped blank into the desired shape. In general, sheet metal forming may involve stretching, drawing, bending or various combinations of those basic modes of deformation. The deformation problems of sheet metal working involve non-linearity in geometry and material. In this work, The punch load and thickness strain of electro-galvanized sheet steel (SECD) for elliptical deep drawing are examined under the various process conditions including, punch shape radius, die shape radius. The changes of punch load and thickness strain distribution of the deformed elliptical cup are affected by the size of each die shape radius.

Deep drawing process, one of sheet metal forming methods, is very useful in the industrial field because of its efficiency The deep drawing is affected by many process variables, such as blank shapes, shape radii of the punch and die, formability of materials and so on. Especially, blank shape is very important formability factor. In this study, in order to investigate the effects of blank shape, we suggested three kinds of blank shapes and examined friction test about three conditions. We measured punch load distribution according to punch stroke under the conditions of each punch and die shape radii and observed punch load of elliptical cup forming.
