1.7 FEM Simulation of the forming of parts from thick sheet
نویسنده
چکیده
According the projectplan the forming of a thick sheet metal part typical for DAF will be investigated. The batteryboxbracket (Figure 1) has been chosen, which is already over ten years in production and proved to be critical. This part is fixed with bolts to the chassis of the truck and supports the batterybox (Figure 2). The initial thickness of the blank is 5mm. The length of the part and the hole pattern can change, depending on the trucktype.

Forming of Multi layer Sheet Metal by Drawing Process: an Analysis and FEM Simulation
In this paper, the drawing process of multi-layer sheet metal through wedge shaped die has been analyzed using stream function and upper bound method. Typically a sandwich sheet contains three layers of metal, where the outer layers are of the same thickness and material and different from those of the inner layer. In this study, a new deformation model has been introduced in which inlet and ou...

Finite element simulation of stretch flanging process was carried out in order to investigate the effect of process parameters on maximum thinning (%) in stretch flanging process. Influences of initial flange length, punch die clearance, width of sheet metal blank and blank holding force were investigated on maximum thinning (%). Finite element simulation was done using FEM software package ABA...
متن کاملMinimization of the Sheet Thinning in Hydraulic Deep Drawing Process Using Response Surface Methodology and Finite Element Method
In most of the sheet forming processes, production of the parts with minimum thickness variation and low required force is important. In this research, minimization of the sheet thinning and forming force in the hydraulic deep drawing process has been studied. Firstly, the process is simulated using the finite element method (FEM) and simulation model is verified using the experimental results....
متن کاملA Study on the Forming of Sheet Metal Parts Using Multi-Point Forming Technology
In recent years, in order to reducing die design and manufacturing costs, Multi point forming technique has gained an increasing interest because of its high flexibility. In this process, the conventional fixed shape solid die sets are replaced with a pair of opposite matrices of controllable elements. In this paper, the fundamental principles of multi-point forming was described and the possib...
