Simulation Study of Deep Drawing Process

Abstract:

Deep drawing process is one of the important processes in sheet metal forming. One of the challenge that faces the deep drawing process is selecting the optimal values of process parameters for the deep drawing process. In order to find the optimum values of these parameters, it is necessary to study their influence on the deformation behaviour of the sheet metal. This paper develops a simulation model for deep drawing process based on Simufact sheet metal forming module to study the effect process parameters on the deep-drawing characteristics. The study also obtained the distribution of strain on the drawn product. Three process parameters are considered in this study namely, punch radius, die radius and clearance, the effect of these process parameter on the required force as well as on the quality of the product are investigated.
