For high production rate of parts requiring multiple operations such as punching, blanking, or other operations are generally done with progressive dies. However, progressive die is generally limited to use for sheet metal forming due to the technical difficulties in rod or bulk material. This study proposes a new technique of progressive die and forming process for asymmetric automotive door striker, which is conventionally manufactured with separate tandem processes using solid rod. In order to design forming process and die, FEM simulation was performed to divide proper intermediate processes and analyze its formability. As a result, Forming processes were divided into 3 stages with upper and side punches and also, workpiece feeding and location mechanism was designed and manufactured in this study. Finally, forming tryouts were carried out by using the manufactured progressive die to verify the forming quality and productivity.

In order to increase the porductivity of electrical parts, manufacturing processes using progressive dies have been widely used in the industry. Motor cores have been fabricated using progressive stacking die with the lamination procedure for better electro-magnetic property. for the proper design of a process, a prediction of the process is required to obtain many design parameters. In this work, rigid-plastic finite element analysis is carried out in order to simulate the lamination this work, rigid-plastic finite element analysis is carried out in order to simulate the lamination process of the motor core. The effects of the embossing depth and the amount of deviation are investigated and compared with experiments. The forming process can then be predicted successfully from the results of analyses, which enables to design appropriately the die and the process.

To prevent the damage of glass lens molds and deterioration of glass lenses using in progressive GMP process, a thermal stress and a deformation of the glass lens molds at forming temperature should be considered in the design step. In this study, as a fundamental study to develop a multi cavity mold used in an aspheric glass lens molding, a heat transfer and a thermal stress analysis were carried out for the case of one cavity glass lens mold used in progressive GMP process. Finally, using analysis results, we estimated the thermal stress in a glass lens mold and predicted a modified height of guide ring that determines the forming height of a glass lens.

In the present study the newly developed CAD/CAM system is applied to the process of the molding design, machining for mini-sized and precise processive die, and the production of press-stamped parts. When the design of a die was completed by means of CAD, wire cut NC data were generated with the aid of a design drawing in the CAD system and then inputed into the wire cut machine, and with the aid of a hole chart which had been made for this purpose, all the data were classified into the categories of CNC milling, jig boring, jig grinding, and machine center, and then developing a program of generating NC data, errors in process were reduced and programming time was shortened. The program was developed by using Autolisp language which was built-in the CAD, and realizing the intergation of designing a die, generating and processing NC data directly by a designer, designing time and machinery processing time were shorted. And the traditionally required working time for design. NC program required 6 days of work becomes 4 days of work by using the developed CAD/CAM system so that the efficiency shows 150% of the reduction working time. The prpgram of the design of the automation a progressive die mold was developed in the PC-Class Autocad system, therefore development expense could be reduced, and the integration of the CAD/CAM of the progressive die mold with the standard DB being built could be realized.

In April 2010, the die and mould grand prix for university student was held in Osaka as a special event of Inter Mold Japan. The students from Korea, China, and Japan participated to demonstrate the design and manufacturing skill of die and mould. Based on the given product drawing of Test Work, progressive die should be designed and manufactured. Also, production of Test Work should be carried out. This study had been conducted to participate in the grand prix and to learn practical knowledge and experience from real die design and making. Test Work is made of SPCC and includes piercing, blanking, deep drawing and burring. From the analysis of product drawing, process planning and die design was carried out. Progressive die for Test Work was manufactured using CNC milling, grinding, wire-cutting and polishing. The production was successfully completed using mechanical press and product showed very good accuracy satisfying all dimensional tolerances.

By the recently developed GMP(Glass Molding Press) process, aspheric glass lenses are widely used in many optical applications such as digital cameras, optical data storages and electrical devices etc. The GMP process can economically produce complex shaped glass lenses with high precision and good repeatability. This study deals the optimization of molding conditions for aspheric glass lenses in progressive GMP process through Design Of Experiment(Taguchi method). Tree main factors for molding conditions were selected based on pressure, temperature and cooling time at 1st cooling stage. From the analysis of experiments which were preformed with 3-cavity glass mold, it was revealed that the cooling time was the most sensitive parameter for form accuracy(PV) in progressive GMP process.

This paper describes a research work of developing a computer-aided design and manufacturing of irregular shaped sheet metal product for blanking or piercing and bending operations. An approach to the system is based on the knowledge-based rules. Knowledge for the system is formulated from plasticity theories experimental results and the empirical knowledge of field experts, This system has been written in AutoLISp on the AutoCAD and in customer tool kit on the SmartCAM with a personal computer and is composed of nine modules which are input and shape treatment, flat pattern-layout, pro-processor module. Based on the knowledge-based rules, the system is designed by considering several factors, such as material and thickness of product complexities of blank geometry and punch profile sheet metal to give flat pattern and automatically account for the adjustment of bending allowances to match tooling requirements by checking dimensions and generating NC data automatically according to drawings of die-layout module. Results carried out in each module will provide efficiencies to the designer and the manufacturer of blanking or piercing and bending die in this field.
