Numerical Simulation Research on Springback Controlling Methods of Aluminum Alloy Panel during Hydroforming

Article Preview

Abstract:

The hydroforming process of the aluminum alloy panel was simulated by the software DYNAFORM. The effects of process parameters (blank holder force, depth of panel and height of draw bead) on springback of the aluminum alloy were investigated. The max springback of the panel was analyzed by weighted scoring method. Then the process parameters were synthetically optimized for the max positive and negative springback. The results showed that the height of draw bead affects obviously the comprehensive springback of the panel. The optimization of the process parameters obtained by the orthogonal experiment can effectively reduce the max springback of the panel.
