In recent domestic automotive industry, applications of computer simulation to the manufacturing of stamping dies for inner and outer body panels which greatly affect durability and aesthetic quality of automobiles, have been increased. Enhancement of die quality, and reduction of total die manufacturing time and consequently manufacturing cost are the visible outcome. However, to successfully apply the result of simulation by a commercial package to the die manufacturing, development of an optimal die manufacturing process is required upon the completion of analysis of forte and shortcomings of available sheet metal forming softwares in the market. Based on the results of numerical analysis of front door outer panel forming, this paper evaluates the applicability of simulation results to the real die making for automotive body panels. Also, it attempts to select an optimal die manufacturing process including design, machining and tryout. Lastly, it discusses the expected effects by adopting the selected process in a real stamping die manufacturing facility.

In this study, the design of prestressed die for spur gear forging have been investigated. The stress concentration at notch of the die insert is very important in the design of die for the forging of spur gear such as non-axisymmetric geometry. In the previous study, the flexible tolerance method was used in order to search the optimal value of design variables considering the constrain conditions. In the design process, it was also involved the safety factor to the yield strength of each ring by considering allowable tensile or compressive hoop stress in each ring. Using this technique, the die deign for spur gear forging has been successfully performed without yielding of the die after shrink fitting and during forging.

The horizontal cold chamber pressure die casting produces a variety of net shape, complicate-geometry castings with desired mechanical properties. dimensional tolerance, and surface finish. However, top quality castings can be achieved only when optimal performance of thecold chamber (shot sleeve )and plunger is maintained druing the molten metla injection phase of the process. Unforturately, inreality , shot sleeves deteriorate fast and sometimes fail catastrophically due to incorrect design. These early and unexpected failures of shot sleeves cost die casters money and productiivity. To prevent promature failures of shoe sleeves major faulure mechanisms were investigated. with the aid of analyticla solutions robust design criteria for shot sleeves have been developed. The data directly obtained from failed shot sleeves in the die casting industry for automotive parts, support a strong correlation between design and filures. by applying these design criterial we expected premature faulures of shot sleeves can be avoided in die casting industry.

In this study, a method to find the optimal intermediate die geometry for the multi-stage drawing process for the rectangular rod from a round bar is proposed and a program using the proposed method is developed. On the stage of the design of the intermediate die geometry, the virtual die was constructed using the initial billet as a inlet of the drawing die and the final product as a exit of that and the virtual die was divided by the number of pass. Divided die was transformed into the rectangular one which is the intermediate die geometry for the multi-stage rectangular drawing process. In order to verify the application of the proposed method on the real industrial product, the drawing of the rectangular rod from a round which composed two stage has been performed and simulated by the three dimensional rigid plastic finite element method.

In this study, the flow behavior of Newtonian and non-Newtonian coating liquids inside slot die has been scrutinized for the purpose of optimal internal die design in slot coating system from three-dimensional computations by CFD Fluent solver. A hybrid slot die could be optimally designed by changing the chamber or manifold structure to guarantee the uniform velocity distribution of coating liquids at die exit. Especially, for the non-Newtonian coating liquids, the length of coat-hanger for the uniform coating has been properly chosen, according to the degree of their shearthinning properties.

A die cast impeller blade has been developed in the effort on cost reduction in marine equipment industry. The purpose of this work is to optimize the die casting process using Taguchi's design of experiment for minimizing the internal defect of the die cast impeller blade. The experiments were preformed using the numerical simulation based on the L18 orthogonal array. As a results, the internal defect size of the die cast impeller blade for optimal design was controlled less than 1mm.

Tractrix dies, used in the deep drawing process, can be used to form CNG pressure vessels without a blank holder. Previous studies had only applied tractrix profiles to perform the first deep drawing process of DDI; but an optimal design of the tractrix die that focuses on improving die life and reducing production cost has not been performed yet. In this study, finite element analyses of deep drawing processes were conducted according to heights of the tractrix die by using translating asymptotes. In addition, researchers analyzed von-Mises stresses at the part of stress concentration of the die according to the forming punch loads in order to propose an optimal tractrix die design.

The use of ceramic inserts in hot extrusion dies offers significant technical and economic advantages over other forms of manufacture. These potential benefits can however only be realized by optimal design of the tools so that the ceramic inserts are not subjected to stresses that lead to their premature failure. In this paper, process simulation and stress analysis are thus combined during the design, and a data exchange program has been developed that enables optimal design of the dies taking into account the elastic deflections generated in shrink fitting the die inserts and that caused by the stresses generated in the process. The stress analysis of the dies is used to determine the stress conditions on the ceramic insert by considering contact and interference effects under both mechanical and thermal loads. The results are compared with the experimental ones for verification.
