Values of process parameters in sheet metal forming can be estimated by various one-step inverse methods. One-step inverse methods based on deformation theory, however, cause some amount of error. The amount of error is generally increased as the deformation path becomes more complex. As a remedy, a new three dimensional multi-step inverse method is introduced for optimum design of blank shapes and strain distributions from desired final shapes. The approach extends a one-step inverse method to a multi-step inverse method in order to reduce the amount of error. The algorithm developed is applied to square cup drawing to confirm its validity by demonstrating reasonably accurate numerical results. Rapid calculation with this algorithm enables easy determination of an initial blank of sheet metal forming.

In this paper, the low frequency vibration forming system is developed for micro-patterns formation on the metal substrate. many researchers have studied about micro-forming technologies such as micro deep drawing, press forming, forging, extrusion etc. for the formation of precise micro-patterns on the surface of metal substrates, multi-step forming process must be used to improve qualifies of the deformed patterns. Since the low frequency vibration forming system could easily deform the surface of metal substrates, several steps of multi-step forming process should be removed by using the low frequency vibration forming system. In order to find optimal process conditions, we have carried out low frequency vibration forming process with varying the vibration frequency from 110Hz to 500Hz.

The Cross rolling between flat jaws, as a kind of hot forging, is the forming method to make the axisymmetric multi-step shaft by its rotation and pressure between flat jaws which move in opposite direction. The purpose of this study is to propose the optimal geometric data for shape development of the forward forming region. All data described on this paper are quantified by experiment from initial shape design to final shape development. As the result, proper geometric data are proved that lenth of the first forming area in the forward forming region is 1.5 times larger than circumference of work-piece and the progress angle changes 3 times smoothly.

Recently, LCD Backlight Unit is being replaced from cold cathode fluorescent lamp(CCFL) to external electrode fluorescent lamp(EEFL) because the EEFL has high energy efficiency and long life. Also, it can reduce energy consumption and weight. So far, external electrode ring for EEFL is produced by sheet metal press forming process. Therefore it had low precision and much material loss. To solve these problems, Multi-Forming process that has five step forming process was invented. However, low productivity is another barrier. Product speed that is controlled by the rotational speed cannot be increased due to the unsatisfied design specification. The reason is that the gap between rolled two edge parts of the sheet plate is tightly inspected. Regarding this factor, the understanding of forming behavior to each process is inevitable. This paper describes the CAE analysis of the multi-forming process by PAM-STAMP.

Curved thick plate forming in shipbuilding industry is currently performed by a thermal process, called as Line Heating by using gas flame torches. It was examined as an alternative way in this study to manufacture curved thick plates by the multi-punch die forming. Experiments and finite element analyses were conducted to evaluate the feasibility of the reconfigurable discrete die forming to the thick plates. Configuration of the multi-punch dies suitable for multi-curvature was investigated. As a result, single step forming by reconfigurable discrete die with scale factor improved formability.

There is a strong industrial demands for the development of light-vehicle to improve fuel efficiency. It is more effective to reduce weight of the parts directly driven by an automobile engine. So the saving in weight of wheels which is operated by an automobile engine improve fuel efficiency more than other parts. There are many step of sheet metal forming in fabricating automotive wheel, so that it is difficult to design process and tools of multi-stage stamping. Traditionally, design process and tools have depended on the experience of skilled workers and it has done by trial and error methods. However, it needs too much costs and time. Taguchi methods has an advantage of the number of required experiments and reliability compared with trial and error method. In this study, Taguchi methods and response surface methods are applied to design process and tools of automotive wheel. As a result, the principal variables are selected and process conditions are optimized.

A finite element inverse method is introduced for direct prediction of blank shapes, strain distributions, and reliable intermediate shapes from desired final shapes in axisymmetric multi-step deep drawing processes. This mothod enables the determination of process disign. The approach deals with the Hencky's deformation theory. Hill's second order yield criterion, simplified boundary conditions, and minimization of plastic work with constraints. The algorithm developed is applied to motor case forming, and cylindrical cup drawing with the large limit drawing ratio so that it confirms its validity by demonstrating resonably accurate numerical results of each problem. Numerical examples reveal the reason of difficulties in motor case forming with corresponding limit diagrams.

There are about 10 motors for tile actuator of the automation system in an auto-mobile recently. The performance of the motor-case is much related to the noise and the vibration of an auto-mobile Multi-Forming process is so much the better than existing deep-drawing or Multi-step forming by press by less cost, installation and staff. But there isn't the specific and general process design, so we aren't good at competition. So in the first step, I want to study about the core design for the multi-forming process. We can access by the elasto-plastic theory and the finite element method, and we use a commercial package of the Deform-2D and, Deform-3D which is based on three-dimensional elasto-plastic finite element, evaluated propriety oi the package. The evaluation of the package propriety was simulated by simple bending example. It was found the elasto-plastic theory was mostly in agreement with the simulation. We proposed that three type of section for the core and analyzed by finite element method (Deform-2D). We can get the best result with the ellipse type core. Then we apply the result of the preceding analysis to the finite element method (Deform-3D). In 3D-finite element analysis, we can get the result of 8/100mm-roundness. This result can help the improvement of the multi-forming process.

Process design of multi-step wire drawing process, conducted by means of finite element analysis and ANN(Artificial Neural Network) has been considered. The investigated problem involves the ade-quate selection of the drawing die angle and the correspondent reduction rate in the condition of desired initial and final diameter. Combinations of the process parameters which are used in finite ele-ment simulation are selected by using the orthogonal array. Also the orthogonal array. Also the orthogonal array and the results of finite element simulation which are related to the process energy are used as train data of ANN. In this study it is shown that the application of new technique using ANN and Othogonal array table to the process design of metal forming process is useful method.
