A new method for increasing LDR in deep drawing is application of anti-lock braking system (ABS) on blank holder. In this method, instead of applying a constant force on blank and control the metal flow, the ABS system holds and releases the blank several times (20 to 50 times) which results increasing LDR. This study investigates the effect of different parameters of ABS on improving the condi...

In general, deep drawing products have various cross-section shapes such as cylindrical, rectangular and nonaxisymmetric shapes. The application of the surface area calculation to non-axisymmetric deep drawing process has not been published yet. In this research, a surface area calculation for non-axisymmetric deep drawing products with elliptical shape was constructed for a design of blank sha...

1 Hans Kleine Büning, Benno Stein ABSTRACT Configuration is a process of creating complex systems out of a finite set of predefined objects. This process may enclose the selection, the assemblage and the adaptation of these objects. In this paper we want to describe how the configuration of hydraulic plants can be supported. A hydraulic plant is a complex system that consists of electronic, mec...

The developers of high aspect ratio components aim to minimize the processing stages in deep drawing processes. This study elucidates the application of microridge punches in multistage deep drawing processes. A microridge punch improves drawing performance, thereby reducing the number of stages required in deep forming processes. As an example, the original eight-stage deep forming process for...

Although deep drawing process in the macro scale are well developed, the known concepts cannot be applied to micro deep drawing through directly scale down the specimen and tooling size due to the so-called size effects. Therefore, tensile test and micro deep drawing experiments were conducted to generate the knowledge for the micro deep drawing process. Stainless steel 304 foils with 4 differe...

The deep drawing is a process for shaping flat sheets into cup-shaped articles without failure or excessive localized thinning. The design and control of a deep drawing process depends not only on the material, but also on the condition of the tool material interface, the mechanics of plastic deformation, the equipment used, and the control of metal flow. The equipment and tooling parameters th...

based on two-dimensional plane stress and bifurcation functional from hill's general theory in polar coordinate the critical condition for elastic wrinkling of the flange of a circular blank ( the wave number in the flange and wrinkled area) during the deep-drawing process are obtained analyticaly to improve the previous given results. in this analytical study, the elastic limitation of the mat...

Deep drawing of cylindrical shapes with high limiting drawing ratio (LDR) values is relatively difficult. Annealing is a further operation, which in turn adds costs and consumes significantly time to the forming process. In the present work, cylindrical cups from brass sheet were made with only limited anneal during few steps, but having LDR of 9 that is about 2 times higher than previous works...
