MTS(Monobloc Tube Shaft) has been used for the reduction in weight of shaft and increase in supply of power in the auto industry nowadays. Cold drawing process having high productivity and reduction in the cost has been regarded as the effective technology that is able to substitute for swaging process as forming MTS with constant outer diameter or hollow shaft without surface defects. The objective of this study is not only to (md out the optimal process conditions understanding the effect of process parameters on carrying out cold drawing process of SIS(Steering Input Shaft) but also to control the defects resulted from inappropriate process conditions. Therefore, the proper drawing conditions are presented using FE-Analysis and experiment in the paper.

The Upper Bound Solution has been used to investigate the effect of the various parameters on the floating-plug tube-drawing precess. A kinematically admissible velocity field considering the change of the tube thickness is proposed for the deformation process. Taking into account the position of the plug in the deforming region, shear energy at entrance and exit, friction energy on contact area, homogeneous energy are calculated. The theoretical values in proposed velocity field are good agreement with experimental values, It is investigated that the tube thickness in the deforming region is changed slightly toward minimization of deforming energy and then the drawing stress in lower than the crawing stress in the velocity field that the tube thickness is uniform.

An artificial body force method is presented to accurately simulate drawing processes in which back pressing is exerted. A rigid-plastic finite element method is applied together with a numerical scheme to eliminate the numerically incurred plastic deformation in rigid or elastic region, which significantly influences simulation results because it eventually changes reduction of area in drawing. Back tension or compression is applied by body force at the rear part of material to obtain numerically stable solution. Two typical examples are shown, a drawing process with back tension applied and a tube drawing with a fixed plug and back pressing applied.

The cowl cross bar of an automobile is a frame component that is installed inside the cockpit module to provide a guide surface, to which functional components for electricity and air condition are attached. In the recent years, the geometries of cowl cross bars are getting more complex in order to meet the demands of a wide variety of embedded functional components and the reduced weight of frame parts with enhanced mechanical and noise/vibration characteristics. There for, welding processes between tubes with different diameters are widely conducted while the welded parts are experiencing various problems such as undermined appearance, low production efficiency and poor mechanical characteristics. Therefore, this paper seeks to develop an one-piece forming process which eliminate welding process for the cowl cross bar by applying the tube drawing process. However, it was predicted that a conventional tube drawing can not be applied directly to the current part since the area reduction ratio of the drawing process reaches 51.7% which exceeds the general limiting value. Therefore, in this study, a combined drawing process which adds a compressive force to a tensile force of the conventional drawing process was proposed and 2-stage drawing process was designed by using CAE analyses. In addition, drawing tryouts were carried out by using the manufactured combined drawing machine in order to verify the designed process.

The study is actively being performed to increase fuel injection pressure of common rail system among countermeasures to meet the emission regulation strengthen of the Diesel engine. The common rail fuel injection tube in such ultra high pressure common rail system has the weakest structural characteristics against vibration that is generated by fuel injection pressure and pulsation during engine operation and driving. Thus the extreme durability is required for common rail fuel injection tube, and the drawing process is being magnified as the most important technical fact for strength of seamless pipe that is the raw material of common rail tube. In this respect, we analyzed the characteristic of dimension and stress variation of the ultra high pressure common rail fuel injection tube by variation of Die and Plug angle in drawing process. Based on the analysis, we tried to obtain the raw material strength of common rail fuel injection tube for applying to the ultra high pressure common rail system. As a result, Plug angle is more important than entry angle of Die and we could obtain the target dimension and strength of the ultra high pressure common rail fuel injection tube through optimization of Plug angle.

Monobloc technology Provides a homogeneous material along the complete tubular shaft without any discontinuity between the interconnecting tube and the stems as is found when the tubes and stems have been Joined by welding. Cold tube drawing is a technique that can be applied for manufacturing of those monobloc tubular shafts with several advantages such as high productivity and cost reduction. The present study is concerned with the investigation about the process parameters related with tool configuration. In order to obtain successfully formed SIS(Steering Input Shaft) without any defects, advanced design of mandrel is presented and analyzed by the FEM and ductile fracture criterion in this paper.

Superconduction materials possess electrical/electronic and magnetic properties. Because superconduction materials is a ceramic powder, that can not be produced singlehandedly. So Ag sheathed Bi-2223 wire was produced by drawing process using powder-in-tube(PIT) method This superconductor has many difficulties to produce. The main difficulty is that the mechanical properties of the ceramic powder are very different from those of the Ag sheath. Actually, the fabrication of Ag sheathed Bi-2223 superconductor by PIT tends to lead to non-uniformity in the core thickness during drawing process. That is so called “Sausaging”. This study analyzed a sausaging using the finite-element method. Also, Effects of drawing process parameters on a sausaging has been carried out using finite element method. Finally, A way to prevent a sausaging has been discussed.

A rotational drawing die which can form a long tube with spiral grooves on the surface is presented. The main feature of the proposed die is a rotation insert that is embedded into the die container for the die to freely rotate with respect to the drawing centerline as the materials are drawn. We employed a three-dimensional finite element model to investigate the effects of the rotational die on the material filling of spiral grooves. The material used in the finite element analysis was stainless 304. We also performed a pilot drawing test to verify the usefulness of the proposed rotational drawing die. Results reveal that the material filling of spiral grooves by the proposed rotational drawing die was in good agreement for both the finite element analysis and the drawing test. We found that the underfill in a conventional drawing die was reduced in the proposed rotational drawing die.
