Numerical Simulation of Glass Bottle Forming Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

Glass forming process is a high-volume fabrication method for producing glass containers. In this paper, the mechanisms of glass forming process were analyzed. Combined the coupled thermo-mechanical analysis with the finite element method (FEM) simulation, it was carried out to analyze the key process factors such as forming temperature, forming pressure, friction coefficient. The results show that forming pressure has the greatest influence on the stress.
