Abstract

In this paper, a new segmental blank holder technique was developed. The blank holder force (BHF) was applied on sheet metal independently and effectively by the binder which was divided into double rings. The principle of holding was derivatized by theoretical formulas, thereby proving that the BHF distribution applied by the new binder is more reasonable. Furthermore, combined with numerical simulation, it can be found that the wrinkling was better suppressed. Finally, the effectiveness of the segmental blank holder technique was proven by a series of experiments with AA5754 plate. It is verified that the flange wrinkling was demonstrated to be more eliminated than that using the single blank holder. Compared with 1:2 and 2:1, when the distribution ratio between the outer ring and the inner ring is 1:2 (the applied BHF is 6.9 kN), there has a better-forming quality.
