Influence of Drawing Temperature and Die Clearance on Wall Thickness of AZ31B Deep Drawn Part

Abstract:

In this paper, AZ31B drawing test was carried out under the mechanical press with crank-slide mechanism. The influence of drawing temperature and drawing clearance on the wall thickness of AZ31B drawn parts was studied through testing. Some conclusions were drawn, which are: with the increase of drawing temperature, minimum wall thickness ( Tmin ) and maximum wall thickness ( Tmax ) of AZ31B drawn parts substantially decreased; with the increase of drawing clearance, Tmin and Tmax of AZ31B drawn parts increased.
