An inverse finite element approach is employed for more capability to design the optimum blank shape from the desired final shape with small amount of computation time and effort. For multi-stage deep-drawing processes with large aspect ratio, numerical analysis is extremely difficult to carry out due to its complexities and convergence problem. as well as tremendous computation time. In this paper, multi-stage finite element inverse analysis is applied to multi-stage rectangular cup drawing processes to calculate intermediate blank shapes and strain distributions in each stages. Deformation history of the previous stage is considered in the computation. Finite element patches are used to describe arbitrary intermediate sliding constraint surfaces.

Process design for elliptically shaped deep drawing products is various according to size shape and specification of products. This study presents two approaches to design the preform that is a key process for elliptically shaped products, One of these is that cross-section of punch is circular. Another is that for the improvement of characteristics for final products the cross-section of the punch is similar to rectangular shape. After forming the preform process design of top-part drawing is the same. In the study blank shape and dimension are obtained by applying a numerical formula and surface area constancy.

As the thickness of mobile communication devices is getting thinner, the size of the internal parts is also getting smaller. Among them, the battery case requires a high-level deep drawing technique because it has a rectangular shape with a large aspect ratio. In this study, the initial blank shape was optimized to minimize earing in a multi-stage deep drawing process using an artificial neural network(ANN). There has been no reported case of applying artificial neural network technology to the initial blank optimal design for a square case with large aspect ratio. The training data for ANN were obtained though simulation, and the model reliability was verified by performing comparative study with regression model using random sample test and goodness-of-fit test. Finally, the optimal design of the initial blank shape was performed through the verified ANN model.

For multi-stage deep drawing process including ironing operation and biaxial forming in this study, tool developments are achieved, and the developed tool sets are applied to experimental investigations. In process and tool designs, a contact condition between intermediate blank and lower die is considered as the sequential one. In this study, the material used is cold-rolled thin sheet (SPCE) with the initial thickness of 0.4mm. From the experimental approaches, several failures such as tearing, localized thickening and thinning, are observed. To solve these failures, the contact surface on the lower die is modified. As the experimental results by applying the modified lower die, it is investigated that the failures are not occurred, and the excessive deformation behavior due to the thinning and thickening effects are decreased. Furthermore, the thickness distributions on the major axis and the minor axis of each intermediate blank are investigated to be already satisfied the target (ironing) thickness, respectively. By this systematic approach, it is confirmed that the experimental results show good agreements with the designed and required configuration of each deformed and final products.

Impact extrusion is an economical and productive process that can replace the multistage deep drawing process for producing deep rectangular cases. In the current work, a three-dimensional finite element analysis of the impact extrusion process of a commercial purity aluminum alloy (AA1070) was performed to predict loads, material flow, and deformed shapes using the Hansel-Spittel rheology law, which describes the flow stress at various temperatures and strain rates. The role of various process parameters such as friction, clearance between punch and die, aspect ratio and thickness of billet on the process and the shapes was analyzed.

다단 딥드로잉 기술은 제품의 생산성 향상과 비용 절감을 위해 휴대폰 배터리 케이스 제품의 생산 공정으로 많이 사용하고 있다. 휴대폰 배터리 케이스는 용량과 강성을 목적으로 세장비가 큰 사각 컵 형상으로 제조된다. 사각 컵 형상의 다단 딥드로잉은 세장비가 크고, 복잡한 변형 형태 메커니즘으로 인한 제품의 좌우 높이 차이가 발생한다. 이로 인해 제품 조립과 표면 품질에 문제가 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제를 개선하기 위해 제품의 높이 차이가 최소가 되는 블랭크 형상에 대해 연구했다. 제품 좌우 높이 차이가 최소가 되는 블랭크 형상을 찾기 위해 최적 설계와 해석을 수행했다. 타원형 블랭크의 장변과 단변을 설계 변수로 설정하고, 목적 함수는 높이 차이가 최소가 되도록, 제품의 두께 감소율이 목표 범위에 도달하도록 설정했다. 또한 최종 제품 형상의 높이를 구속 조건으로 설정하였다. 그 결과 최적 설계를 통한 초기 블랭크 설계로 높이 차이가 최소가 되었으며, 원하는 공정을 지정하여 높이 차이가 최소화 되도록 수행 가능하다. 향후 개발된 자동화 프로세스로 인해 모든 각형 타입의 초기 소재 설계가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In order to obtain optimum process variables during the drawing of stainless steel sheets rectangular cup drawing tests were carried out with several technically available stainless steel sheets. As parameters on testing materials for die and punches lubrication and blank holding forces were selected. Testing parameters played an important role if the deformed material was thin. Effect of material properties on the deformation behaviors was also discussed by using testing parameters selected in this experiment. From the test results we suggest the appropriate conditions to be applicable to the actual manufacturing processes

Stainless steel sheets are widely used to produce electrical appliances. But there are various problems occured in forming stainless steel sheets such as scratch, local fracture, earing. So the productivity of electrical appliances made of stainless steel sheets is decreased. And it is very important to improve the formability of stainless steel sheets. In this study, rectangular cup drawing tests have been carried out to obtain optimum process parameters for improving the formablity of stainless steel sheets. In the tests, selected process parameters are materials of dies and punches, lubricating conditions, and blank holding force. From the test results, we suggest the appropriate conditions to be applicable to the actual manufacturing processes.

The analysis was carried out using the press molding analysis program by applying six parameters such as material type change, material thickness, friction coefficient, r_p, r_d and blank holder pressure. As a result of CAE analysis of the soft material DC04 and the relatively hard material HX300LAD, the thickness of the punch R part of the soft material was significantly reduced. The flange portion is greatly increased in thickness in the hard material by the compression action. As a result of considering the deformation amount of 0.6mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm according to the material thickness, the influence of the thickness is considered to be very small. In case of the material thickness of 0.6mm, the rate of change increases due to the deep drawing depth relative to the material thickness. The sizes of the punches R and die R have the greatest influence on the change in thickness of the material in drawing molding, the smaller the punch R, the thinner the edges of the product, The larger the R of the die, the greater the material thickness of the flange portion. As the coefficient of friction and the blank holder pressure increase, the frictional force of the flange portion increases, which increases the radial force in the drawing process and increases the thickness change of the flange portion.

The paper is concerned with an improved scheme for application of the blank holding force in order to take account of the thickness distribution in the sheet material of the flange region. The scheme incorporates with a modified membrane finite element method for planar anisotropic materials. The new scheme proposed two coefficients α and βto calculate the compressive stress in the sheet metal due to the blank holding force, which should be determined properly for accurate analysis. The effect of αand βon the blank holding force distribution and the deformed shape is investigated with simulation of rectangular cup deep drawing processes by changing parameter values.
