In this paper. we will discuss in making large size cylindrical shells with multithickness wall sections such as straight, stepped, tapered sides. These shells are constructed of type 6061 O temper aluminum starting with a blanking size of 877 mm plate. Its diameter to length ratio of 1 to 2.78 and a 36.7％ wall reduction is achieved by our continuous deep drawing process. This process required no in-process annealing. But after cold working, these shells is performed heat treatment to T6 condition. These shells are used for the making of seamless LPG pressure vessels after the spinning process. This process is composed of deep drawing, reverse redrawing, drawing-ironing and several ironing processes. In the verification of forming process design, we used DEFORM code.

Deep drawing and cold forging processes are combined to achieve near net shape forming of automotive part which has not only drum shape but also thickness variation. It is important to find out proper intermediate shape where two totally different forming methods should be joined seamlessly. In the course of development of the combined process, finite element analysis can be utilized effectively to decide optimal position for transferring from the sheet metal work to the bulk forming. Because machining process is eliminated, significant improvement in integrity, reliability, and durability of the part is expected. The developed process combination could be applied in real manufacturing process successfully.

Most of researches have been performed on the formability of axisymmetric shape, but it is insufficient that the study on Process variables of elliptical deep drawing Product. There are many Process variables exerted influence on the formability of products. Particularly, blank shape is more important than the others in elliptical deep drawing process. In this study, blanks of three types were proposed and compared using thickness distribution and movement of sheet during the process. The aim of a paper is to obtain optimal blank shape through experiment and finite element analysis(FEA).

A combination of deep drawing and cold forging process is tried to achieve near net shaping of automatic transmission part which has drum shape and thickness variation. It is key for successful shaping of the part to find out proper condition to combine two different forming methods. Finite element analysis can be utilized for that purpose effectively. Integrity, reliability, and durability of the part are improved by eliminating machining process. The developed process is applied in real manufacturing process successfully.

A systematic investigation for process design in deep drawing is necessary for quality improvement of drawn cups. This study has been concentrated mainly on the influence of process design scheme on product qualities in cylindrical cup drawing. Three types of process design scheme were chosen in this study. That is, Case 1 is to finish drawing a cup of 50m in diameter in one stage, Case 2 and Case 3 are redrawing the drawn cups of 55, 65 mm in diameter to the final size respectively. Though experiments the maximum drawing force in two-stage cup drawing could be reduced up to 35% as compared with that of one-stage cup drawing. In addition, the Case 2 and Case 3 processes showed better product qualities than the Case 1 process when comparing distributions of thickness, hardness, dimensional accuracy.

It is clearly demonstrated that deeper cups could be formed by single and double stretch-drawings from smaller circular blanks due to such wall-thinning action than in the usual deep-drawing of larger blanks. From this fact, it is emphasized that the deep-drawability of a sheet metal Is not evaluated simply by the conventional L.D.R (limiting drawing ratio), but the depth of the drawn cup should also be taken into account. Many experimental data about various metals and thicknesses given in this paper offer a valuable information in this process for more general use which recommends to replace the conventional deep-drawing process by the stretch-drawing process both for single and double operations. In the single stretch-drawing, it is also confirmed that a deeper cup can be produced by raising the blank-holding force at later stage of operation.

Formability in deep drawing process depends not only on a drawability of workpiece material but also on process conditions such as die punch comer radius, lubricant conditions, punch-die clearance etc. For instance, bending resistance should be reduced by increasing die round appropriately, drawing load should be minimized by improving the lubricant condition between die and material, and blanking load should be increased by selecting a pertinent punch round and by augmenting the friction resistance in punch. In this study, a multi-stage deep drawing process is analyzed using ABAQUS. The effects of formability factors, such as die shoulder radius, punch-die clearance and friction coefficient are investigated, and the results are also discussed in detail.

An ecpert system for rotationally symmetric deep drawing products has been developed. The application for non-axisymmetric components, however, has not been reported yet. This study construsctus and expert system for non-axisymmetric motor frame which shape is classified into ellipse in deep draqing process and investigates process sequence design with elliptical shape. The developed system consists of four modules. The first is recognition of calculate surface area for non-axisymmetric products. The third is blank design module the creates an oval-shaped blank with the same surface area. The fourth is a processplanning module based on production rules that play the best important roles in an expert system for manufacturing .The production rules are generated and upgraded by interviewing field engineers. Especially, drawing coefficient, punch and die radii for elliptical shape products are considered as main design parameters. The constructed system for elliptical deep drawing product would be very useful to reduce lead time and improve accuracy for products.

This paper reviews the rules for optimizing die design and the process variables such as die shoulder radius and punch to die clearance, which are important factors in drawing the sheet metal without failures during deep drawing. To find the optimum conditions for improving deep drawability, a series of the experiments are performed, and the wall thinning and thickening variations are investigated in each process of deep drawing for a complex cylindrical shell. From the results of this proposed experiment, the optimum values of process variables are examined and discussed, and the usefulness of the present suggestion is shown.

Deep drawing and ironing are the major process used today in manufacturing of battery case used in cellular phone and IMT-2000 from aluminum. The same technology is utilized in manufacturing of steel or aluminum rectangular cans for components of medical instrument, portable PC, walkman and so on. Most of these processes require multi-stage ironing following the deep drawing and redrawing processes. The practical aspects of this technology are well known and gained through extensive experiment and production know-how. However, the fundamental aspects of theses processes are relatively less known. Thus, it is expected that process simulations using FEM techniques would provide additional detailed information that could be utilized to improve the process condition. This paper illustrates the application of process modeling to deep drawing and redrawing operations with the cellular phone and IMT-2000. A commercially avaliable finite element code LS-DYNA3D was used to simulate deep drawing and redrawing operations.
