An inverse mosaic method has been proposed to generate an initial blank shape from the final product shape. Differently from the geometric mapping method, the method can handle triangular patches. However, the generated blank shape is strongly dependent on the order of determination of nodes. In order to compensate the dependency error smoothing technique has been also developed. Although the accuracy has been improved greatly compared with the geometrical mapping method, the method has limitation, due to the no incorporation of plasticity theory. Even though the accuracy of the radius vector method is already proved. the method requires initial guess to start the method. In order to compromise the limitation of the present method and the radius vector method, the method has been connected to the radius vector method. The efficiency of the present optimal blank design method has been verified with some chosen examples.

The optimal blank design method by sensitivity analysis has been applied to the formings of oil-pan, tailored blank and front panel have been chosen as the examples. Die shape is prepared by a commercial CAD system. Excellent results has been obtained between the numerical results and the target contour shapes. Through the investigation, the proposed systematic method of optimal blank design is found to be effective in the practical forming processes.

In the stamping industry the blank shape to be stamped into a designed shape has been conventionally determined from the try out process by the press engineers. The work needs a lot of time and thus leads a loss of productivity. In this study boundary element method for 2-dimensional potential problem was used to design optimum blank shapes for irregular press forming. Here we assumed that the blank is controlled by blank holder only and material flow at blank holder was under potential flow. The developed PC code for designing the optimum blank shape shows that the blank shapes for optimal drawing can be calculated within a few minute in pentium PC and the calculated shapes agree well with the experiments. However the application of this method is constrained only to the pressed product with flat bottom.

As the thickness of mobile communication devices is getting thinner, the size of the internal parts is also getting smaller. Among them, the battery case requires a high-level deep drawing technique because it has a rectangular shape with a large aspect ratio. In this study, the initial blank shape was optimized to minimize earing in a multi-stage deep drawing process using an artificial neural network(ANN). There has been no reported case of applying artificial neural network technology to the initial blank optimal design for a square case with large aspect ratio. The training data for ANN were obtained though simulation, and the model reliability was verified by performing comparative study with regression model using random sample test and goodness-of-fit test. Finally, the optimal design of the initial blank shape was performed through the verified ANN model.

This study is concerned with the optimum blank design which is able to minimize earing phenomena. A new analytic method is proposed to determine the optimum blank shape only using the tension test and standard deep drawing tests. Introducing a dimensionless parameter related to the earing and using a Fourier analysis, the optimum blank shape can be obtained by R-value and the tested results. The theoretical results by the proposed method are good agreement with the experimental results through several deep drawing tests using steel as working materials.

A tryout is a series of process optimization for robust stamping before transfer to the press shop. During tryout, the drawbead control, blank shape determination, binder surface modification, etc., are carried out mainly by a trial-and-error approach. As the level of difficulty of the stamping process increases, the formability becomes more sensitive to the contour of deformed shape, i.e. the blank shape. A digital tryout technique, which simulates a real tryout process, is proposed in this study for challenging stamping processes. Since digital tryout is carried out on a desktop, not in a press shop, a precise control of the deformed contour can be achieved if an optimal blank design technique is utilized. In this work, the proposed digital tryout technique is validated by successful applications to different automotive parts.

The trimming process is required for satisfying the dimensions of a final product in the hot stamping process. In general, the mechanical trimming or laser trimming process is applied after hot stamping. However, these processes have several disadvantages such as short tool life and low productivity. Therefore, in this study, the optimal trimless blank shape for the hot stamping process of a sill side was designed to remove the trimming process after hot stamping. In order to design the trimless blank, numerical analysis was performed. Firstly, CFD analysis was carried out to predict the cooling temperature and holding time of the hot stamping process. Then, the optimal trimless blank shape was determined through FE analysis. The effectiveness of the designed trimless blank shape was verified through a hot stamping experiment at an actual industrial site.

there are a lot of process variable exerted influence on the formability of products in deep drawing process. Particularly it is important that blank shape of the process variables. A paper to be connected with process variables of elliptical deep drawing products is insufficient the actual circumstances enough though researches have been performed on the deep drawing of sheet metal forming. In this study The effects of thickness distribution and movement of sheet are grasped as alteration of blank shapes in the process of elliptical deep drawing product and then optimal blank shape was presented. They were verified by the finite element analysis (FEA) and experiment.

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).

Sheet metal forming has some merits that are less loss of materials in process, less time-consuming and it makes mass product possible. The product produced by sheet metal forming process has high strength compared to the weight and better surface characteristics. Therefore, sheet metal forming process is a lot used in automobiles, aircrafts, electronics and appliances. This paper made the process design for forming Bracket Front Back Frame Lower, determined the blank shape and size using PAM-STAMP, commercial software and evaluated formability. It has been proved that the optimal blank through the result forming analysis has advantage in terms of formability and spring back compared to the rectangular blank.
