Recently, the plane strain puch stretching test(called PSST) has been developed and used successfully in the evaluation of the press formability of automotive steel sheets. In this paper, the optimum punch geometry of the original PSST tool was investigated by the FEM analysis. The puch length, crown and corner radius are chosen to be optimized according to the Taguchi's experiment technique with the $L_4$ orthogonal array.
