The design for cold extrusion dies is very important because the die insert is subjected to very high radial and hoop stresses. The design of cold extrusion dies has many constrained conditions. In this paper, two assumptions were proposed. First assumption was selected by yielding strength dependent on the to hoop stress of each ring in dies. Second assumption is that the maximum inner pressure is determined when yielding occurs in one ring of dies. To obtain the maximum inner pressure the flexible tolerance method was applied. A comparison of design values between the proposed method and the conventional method has been discussed.

The design for cold extrusion dies is very important, because the die insert is subjected to very high radial and hoop stresses. The design of cold extrusion dies has many constrained conditions. In this paper, the used assumptions are such that the yield strength of each ring is selected according to the allowable tensile or compressive hoop stress in each ring and the maximum allowable inner pressure, when yielding occurs in one ring of the dies, is obtained by the proposed equation. In order to obtain design variables, such as diameter ratios and interferences, using the maximum inner pressure, the flexible tolerance method was used for shrink-fitted thick-walled cylinders. ANSYS APDL was used to perform the repeated analysis of deformation of the dies due to the variation of the design variables. The response surface methodology is utilized to analyze the relationship between the design variables and the maximum radial displacement of the die insert during extrusion. From the results, it is found that outer diameter of the die Insert has the largest effect on the minimization of maximum radial displacement at the inner surface of the dies.

This paper deals with an automated computer-aided process planning and die design system by which designer can determine operation sequences even if they have a little experience in process planning and die design for axisymmetric products. An attempt is made to link programs incorporating a number of expert design rules with the process variables obtained by commercial FEM softwares, DEFORM and ANSYS, to form a useful package. The system is composed of four main modules. The process planning and the die design modules consider several factors, such as the complexities of preform geometry, punch and die profiles, specifications of available multi former, and the availability of standard parts. They can provide a flexible process based on either the reduction in the number of forming sequences by combining the possible two processes in sequence, or the reduction of deviation of the distribution on the level of the required forming loads by controlling the forming ratios. Especially in die design module an optimal design technique and horizontal split die were investigated for determining appropriate dimensions of components of multi-former die set. It is constructed that the proposed method can be beneficial for improving the tool life of die set at practice.

The objective of this study is to design the optimal die profile that can prevent material fracture in the tube drawing process for automobile steering input shaft. First, the CDV(Critical Damage Value) of material is obtained by the compression test and FE-analysis. The occurrence of fracture is estimated by the FE-analysis considering the CDV. In order to achieve the objective of this study, optimization technique and FE-analysis are applied. FPS(Flexible Polyhedron Search) method, which is one of the non-gradient optimization techniques often used in engineering, is used to search optimal die profile. The drawing die profile is represented by Bezier-curve to generate all the possible die profile. Using FPS method and FE-analysis the optimal drawing die profile is determined. To verify tile effectiveness of the redesigned optimal die, the tube drawing experiment is performed. In the experimental result, it is possible to produce sound product without material fracture using the redesigned optimal die.

Matched die forming technology has been used widely as a sheet metal forming method for a long time. This conventional method, however, needs a high cost and long delivery time to prepare a set of matched dies or, in many cases, several sets of dies. For more than ten years, some alternative methods using single die or non-matched dies have been developed and applied practically in various fields of industry. Elasto-forming, fluid forming, hydro-forming, and blow forming are some examples of these new methods. Recently, a dieless sheet forming technology using a reconfigurable matrix of punch elements has been developed, and started to be used in some industries such as aircraft and railroads. A new concept of dieless forming technology has also been proposed to overcome the drawback of the conventional dieless forming technology.

The die wear is one of the main factors affecting die accuracy and tool lifetime. It is desired to reduce die wear by developing simulation method to predict wear based on process variables, and then optimizing the process. Therefore, this paper describes methodology of preform design for minimizing wear of finisher die in multi-stage cold forging processes. The finite element method is combined with the routine of wear prediction. The cold forging process is analyzed using developed simulation method. In order to obtain preform to minimize die wear, the Flexible Polyhedron Search(FPS) algorithm is used. The optimal preform shape is found from iterative deformation analysis and wear calculation.

가변성형공정에서는 형상 변형이 가능한 가변금형의 성형면을 고르게 형성하기 위하여 일반적으로 우레탄, 고무 등 같은 탄성체 패드를 가변금형과 소재 사이에 삽입하여 이용한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이러한 탄성패드가 성형성에 미치는 영향에 대한 조사를 위하여 탄성체의 경도 및 두께를 주요 변수로 고려한 수치해석적 연구를 수행하였다. 탄성패드 소재로는 우레탄을 이용하였으며, 이의 물성 획득을 위한 압축시험을 수행하였고, 초탄성체 재료 모델로 가정하여 가변성형공정해석에 적용하였다. 탄성체의 경도와 두께의 변화에 따른 해석 결과로부터 성형 정확도를 조사하기 위하여 주방향의 단면형상을 비교하였으며, 목적형상에 대한 오차를 비교하였다. 이로부터 가변성형공정에 이용되는 탄성 패드가 적절히 선정되어야 함을 확인하였으며, 패드의 경도 및 두께 선정에 대한 기준을 제안하였다.

Recently, studies on the development of flexible electronic devices by combining flexible materials and a conductor have been actively performed as interest in wearable devices. Especially, carbon nanotubes (CNT) or graphene coating have been used to construct a circuit to induce improvement in flexibility and rigidity. Various technologies have been developed in the surface coating of conductive materials, which are key to the manufacture of flexible electronic devices. Surface coating products with 3D coating and micro-patterns have been proposed through electrospinning, electrification, and 3D printing technologies. As a result of this advanced surface coating technology, there is a growing interest in manufacturing gradient conductive surfaces. Gradient surfaces have the advantage that they are adapted to apply a gentle change or to inspect optimum conditions in a particular region by imparting continuously changing properties. In this study, we propose a manufacturing technique to produce a continuous gradient conductive surface by combining a partial stretching of elastomer and a conductive material coating, and introduce experimental results to confirm its performance.

Flexible display tends to grow every year, It tends to be larger, slimmer, and higher in image quality. Therefore, accuracy is required in the manufacturing process of each part. In the curved monitor, the bottom chassis has a structure to which other parts can be attached. The accuracy of the curvature which the bottom chassis of the curve monitor monitors has is important. If the curvature error is large, serious defects such as cracks, warpage, twisting and the like occur. Curvature was analyzed using 3D scanner. In the Forming process and Restriking process steps, spring go occurred, and spring back occurred in the Notching process and Bending process steps. Even in the same process, it was confirmed that the curvature value varied depending on the formed shape.

새로운 방식의 일체형 flexible sensor module을 제작하였다. MEMS공정을 이용하여 제작된이 센서 모듈은 배선기판은 물론 strain sensor 역시 임의의 곡면에 실장을 위해 자유로운 굽힘이 가능하도록 제작되었다. 실리콘웨이퍼에 구현된 piezoresistor 스트레인 센서는 release-etch 방법을 통해 웨이퍼로부터 분리되어, 폴리이미드를 기판으로 하는 Flexible Sensor Array Module로 완성되었다. 소자와 기판을 따로 제작한 후 조립하는 기존의 방식에 비해, 웨이퍼 위에서 flexible 기판을 형성하여 수율이 높고 사진공정의 정밀도를 그대로 보전한 기판과 센서 어레이의 패키징이 가능하였으며, 칩을 기판에 실장하기 위한 정밀한 조립공정도 불필요하였다. 폴리이미드 기판은 전기도금을 통해 회로를 구성하여 1단계 패키징 (die to chip carrier)과 2단계 패키징 (chip to substrate)을 웨이퍼 레벨에서 완성하였다. 마지막으로 불산 용액을 통해 희생층을 제거함으로서 웨이퍼로 부터 센서어레이 모듈을 분리 하였다.
