This paper presents the effects of cryogenic temperature on the wear behavior of 22MnB5 blank under cold stamping. After immersing the blank in liquid nitrogen (LN2) for 10 min, a strip drawing test was performed within 10 s. The hardness was measured using the Rockwell hardness test, which increased from 165 HV at 20℃ to 192 HV at cryogenic temperature. The strip drawing test with 22MnB5 blank and SKD61 tool steel shows that for the different wear mechanisms on the tool surface with respect to temperature; adhesive wear is dominant at 20℃, but abrasive wear is the main mechanism at cryogenic temperature. As the friction test is repeated, sticking gradually increases on the tool surface at 20℃, whereas the scratch increases at cryogenic temperature. For the friction behavior, the friction coefficient rapidly increases when adhesive wear occurs, and it occurs more frequently at 20℃. The results for nanoindentation near the worn blank surface indicate a difference of 1.3 GPa at 20℃ and 0.8 GPa at cryogenic temperature compared to the existing hardness, indicating increased deformation by friction at 20℃. This occurs because thermally activated energy available to move the dislocation decreases with decreasing temperature.

Bending is one of the most common cold-stamping operations, recently it is many used to produce structural frame. Depending on the shape and dimensions of complex structural frame, a successive bending operation with simple dies may be economic. But, in this paper, it has been focused to reduce the bending operations by a successive-action compound die. Designed compound-die consists of blank-holder, cam, wedge and etc. In the result, this compound-die for structural frame enabled that it makes seven bending processes into one process, and improved productivity.

The purpose of this study was to quantitatively evaluate the influence of hardness of tool materials on wear resistance in the sheet metal forming process. Punches used in the wear test were made of STD-11 and K340 tool material, and the tempering temperature was set to 530℃ and 500℃, respectively, to control the hardness of the tool materials. The punches mimic the shape of stamping tool of automotive body component to reflect its plastic deformation, and are designed to concentrate wear on the curvature region of punches. Progressive die and coil sheet were used to save time, cost, and raw sheet materials. By quantitatively measuring the wear depth of the punches, the wear behavior and mechanism of the punches were investigated, and characteristics of hardness and wear resistance according to tool materials and tempering temperatures were evaluated. Testing results indicate that the punch made of K340 tool steel with higher hardness had better wear resistance than that of STD-11 tool steel, and the hardness and wear resistance of tool steel were significantly impacted by the tempering temperature.
