Optimization of Forming Process Parameters for Appropriate Distribution of Wall Thickness in Sheet Metal Component
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
While obtaining the final sheet metal component the defects are occurred in sheet metal forming process which are reduced by varying the forming process parameters by trial and error method. This causes loss in terms of money and time. The final part in its desired quality limits is obtained by selection of various essential parameters which affect more on the total process and varying their values to their optimum values. This requires tool design expertise and thorough knowledge of the behavior of process according to these parameters. Expensive trial and error methods are replaced by the virtual simulations of these trials using Finite Element Method (FEM) based software and optimization is carried out by the Design of experiments (DOE) technique. This technique can replace the need of industrial experience and also save a lot of expenses and time. This project involves the simulation of the forming of sheet metal component by using Altair’s HyperForm. The foremost effective parameters are identified. The results of optimization are validated by actual formed sheet metal component at industry using same optimized parameters.
