A computer-aided process planning (CAPP) system for rotationally symmetric deep drawing products has been developed. The application for non-axisymmetric components, however, has not been reported yet. Therefore, this study investigates process sequence design in deep drawing process and constructs an expert system of process planning for non-axisymmetric motor frame products with elliptical shape. The system developed consists of four modules. The first one is recognition of shape module to recognize the products. The second one is a 3-D modeling module to calculate surface area for non-axisymmetric products. The third one is a blank design module that creates an oval-shaped blank with the identical surface area. The forth one is a process planning module based on production rules that play the best important role in an expert system for manufacturing. The production rules are generated and upgraded by interviewing with field engineers. The constructed system using AutoLISP language under the AutoCAD environment is baled on the knowledge base system which is involved a lot of expert's technology. Results of this system will be provide effective aids to the designer and engineer in this field.

A design methodology is applied for manufacturing a disk-brake piston component and a washing machine container. The design criteria are the limit drawing ratio and the forging load within the available press limit. Also, the final product should not have any geometrical defect. The rigid-plastic and elastic-plastic FEM have been applied to simulate both of the conventional manufacturing processes, respectively, which include deep drawing and forging process. Simulations of one stage process from a selected stock to the final product shape are performed for generating information on additional requirements for metal flow. The best manufacturing processes are selected, which is using a hemispherical punch in the deep drawing process for both disk-brake piston component and washing machine container.

The drawability of AZ31B magnesium sheet is estimated at various temperatures($200,\;250,\;300,\;350\;and\;400^{\circ}C$), and forming speed(20, 50, 100mm/min), thickness(0.5, 0.8, 1.0, 1.4mm). The deep drawing process of circular cup and square cup were used in forming experiments. Experimental and FEM analysis are performed to investigate drawability and affection of controlled blank holding force. Through the controlled blank holding force, drawability was improved. Limit drawing ratio is increased from 2.1 to 3.0 in circular cup drawing and change of thickness is decreased from 16.3 to 6.9%. This result is verified by FEM analysis. Through the observation of microstructure, the main cause is investigated as a quantity of the dynamic recrystallization.

A method of determining an optimum blank shape for the non circular deep drawing process is more investigated and applied to the balnk design for multi-stage deep drawn product. The forming procedure of two-stage deep drawing process is looked over and the method of determining a blank shape is proposed. In experimental research, a optimum blank and a optional rectangular blank were considered and we measured thickness strain distributions. We could predict a strain distribution and compare with a experimental strain distribution. Also, the strain distributions for the blank shapes, optimum and rectangular, were compared.

The study is concerned with the rigid-plastic element analysis for axisymmetric hydromechanical deep drawing in which the fluid flow influences the metal deformation. Due to the fluid pressure acting on the sheet material hydromechanical deep drawing is distinguished from the conventional deep drawing processes. In considering the pressure effect, the governing equation for fluid pressure is solved and the result is reflected on the global stiffness matrix. The solution procedure consists of two stages ; i.e., initial bulging of the sheet surface before the initiation of steady fluid flow in the flange and fluid-lubricated stage. The problem is decoupled between fluid analysis and analysis of solid deformation by deformation by iterative feedback of mutual computed results. The corresponding experiments are carried out for axisymmetric hydro-mechanical deep drawing of annealled aluminium sheet as well as for deep drawing. It has been shown from the experiments that the limit drawing ratio for hydro-mechanical deep drawing is improved as compared with deep drawing. The computed results are in good agreement with the experiment for variation of punch head and chamber pressure with respect to the punch travel and for distribution of thicknees strain. It is thus shown that the present method of analysis can be effectively applied to the analysis of axisymmetric hydro-mechanical deep drawing processes.

Hot stamping is an effective and suitable process widely used in automotive applications, though critical issues such as the transfer of the coating materials and build-up of these materials on tool surfaces have been encountered. Past researches figured out the resultant wear phenomenon using pin-on-disc and drawing (for example, strip drawing and deep drawing) methods to mimic the process and analyzed the wear behavior with respect to the influencing factors such as surface coating, load, and roughness. Although the pin-on-disc is a conventional and widely-used method, it presented a methodological limitation when simulating the hot stamping process by forming a new blank each time, and hence, a drawing-based friction method has been proposed and developed. Each drawing method applies loads in a different way, resulting in a different wear behavior. Notably, the deep drawing process is most similar to the hot stamping process compared to other drawing methods. In this paper we present a review of the friction testing methods mimicking the hot stamping process and the associated wear behavior. This can be helpful in presenting a step-by-step approach and different perspectives on the wear behavior in the hot stamping process.

In this study, a CAD/CAM system for axisymmetric deep drawing processes has been developed. An approach to the system is based on the knowledge based system. Under the environment of CAD/CAM software of Personal Designer, the system has been written in UPL. The geometries of intermediate and final object in deep drawing process, including processes parameters are input for the CAD/CAM system. The input data can be obtained from the results of Pro-Deep. The parts drawing of die sets for each process is generatedin tool design module of the CAD/CAM system. Also, the die assemblydrawings can be obtained. NC commands for machining of the part can be generated in the developed CAD/CAM system.

The planar anisotripic FEM analysis for predicting earing profiles and draw-in amounts in the deep-drawing process is introduced. An implicit, incremental, updated Lagrangian formulation with a rigid-viscoplastic constitutive equation is employed. Contact and friction are considered through the mesh-based unit vector and normal contact pressure. The consistent full set of governing relations, which is comprising euilbrium and geometric constraint equations, is appropriately linearized. Barlat's strain-rate potential is employed, whose in-plane anisotropic properties are taken into account with anisotropic coefficients and potential parameters. The linear triangular membrane elements are used for depicting the formed sheet. In the numerical simulations of deep drawing processes of a flat-top cylindrical cup for 2090-T3 aluminum alloy sheet show good agreement with experiments, although some discrepancies were observed in the directional trend of cup height and thickness strains.

A method of determining an optimum blank shape for the non-circular deep drawing process is investigated. The rigid-plastic finite element method is introduced and the computer program code is developed. The ideal shape of a drawn cup with uniform wall height is assumed and metal flow is traced back-ward step by step to predict an initial blank shape of the ideal cup. For examples of the non-circular deep drawing products, three cases of drawn cup with quadrilateral punch shape are considered and optimum blank shapes for each case are proposed and compared with experimental results.
