Abstract

The deep drawing process is implemented for sheet metal forming in industries for acquiring the intricate shape of products and helping to maintain a high productivity rate. Failures viz. wrinkling, earing, tearing and fracture of the sheet metal, during this process are common. The aspects related to these failures are explored in this paper to reduce the occurrence of these failures. The latest method for analyzing failures is through simulation techniques in which numerical methods are combined with software packages. Different cases of failures and their corresponding method of analysis are discussed such as—effect of blank holder force, die shape, stress–strain development, contact pressure distribution, effect of die and blank holder shapes, wrinkling and fracture failures in sheet metal. Failures can be predicted from simulation for different product designs. The tool widely used for this is ANSYS which is found effective to obtain the desired results.
