Performance Evaluation of Lubricants with Swift Cup Drawing

Abstract:

The quality of a part produced using stamping process is dependent on many parameters such as the geometries of the tools and the initial blank, their surface state, the clamping force or contact pressure, the tools velocity and the lubrication. In order to discriminate different lubricants for stamping process in automotive industry under various conditions of clamping force and punch velocity, the Swift cup drawing test is used to evaluate the performance of three lubricants, i.e., two oil-based liquids and one dry film, applied on AA5182-O sheets. Moreover, finite element simulations are used to estimate friction coefficients of these lubricants.
