A computer-aided process planning system for rotationally symmetric deep drawing products has been developed. The application for non-axisymmetric components, however, has been reported yet. Therefore, this study investigates process sequence design in deep drawing process and constructs a computer-aided process planning system for non-axisymmetric motor frame products with elliptical shape. The system developed consists of three modules. The first one os a 3-dimensional modeling module to calculate surface area for non-axisymmetric products. The second one is a blank design module that creates an oval-shaped blank with the identical surface area. The third one is a process planning module based on production rules that play the best important roles in an expert system for manufacturing. The production rules are generated and upgraded by interviewing with field engineers. Especially, drawing coefficient, punch and die radii are considered as main design parameters. The constructed system for elliptical deep drawing products would be very useful to reduce lead time and improve accuracy for production.

'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).

There have been many researches performed on the formability of axisymmetric or rectangular cup shapes in the deep drawing processes. But non-axisymmetric deep drawing processes rely upon empirical knowledge of experts in most cases. Especially, there have been few researches for multi-stage elliptical deep drawing processes. In this study, formability and thickness distributions of elliptical yoke products were predicted by using finite element analysis. The results of the analysis were compared with those of experiments for validity.

One of the most important steps to determine the blank shape and dimensions in deep drawing process is to calculate the surface area of the product. In general, the surface area of axisymmetric products is calculated by mathematical or graphical methods. However, in the case of non-axisymmetric products, it is difficult to calculate the exact surface area due to errors as separated components. Fortunately, it is possible for elliptical products to recognize the geometry of the product in the long side and short side by drafting in another two layers on AutoCAD software. So, in this study, a surface area calculating system is constructed for a design of blank shape of deep drawing products. This system consists of input geometry recognition module and three dimensional modeling module, respectively. The suitability of this system is verified by applying to a real deep drawing product. The system constructed in this study would be very useful to reduce lead time and cost for determining the blank shape and dimensions.

The first one is a shape recognition module to recognize non-axisymmetric products and to generate Entity_list. The second one is three dimensional (3-D) modeling module to calculate the surface area for non-axisymmetric products. The third one is a blank design module to create suggested blanks of three shapes with the identical surface area. The fourth one is shape design module based on the production rules that play the most important role in an expert system for manufacturing. The production rules are generated and upgraded by inter- viewing field engineers, plastic theory and experiments. The fifth and sixth ones are a graphic module to visualize results of the expert system and a post module to rise user's convenience, respectively.

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.

Most of researches for deep drawing process have been performed on the formability of axisymmetric blank, but there is an insufficient study on the formability of non-axisymmetric blank. In addition, the conventional blank shape has been determined by the trial-and-error method using industrial experience and post processing test. Therefore only approximated shape of the blank can be presented. In this study, the optimal blank shape and concrete drafting method in deep drawing process with biaxisymmetric elliptical shape is proposed. Through the deep drawing experiment, it is found that the optimal blank shape gives the most uniform thickness of the products in the first process
