Abstract

Metal forming processes are highly affected by the properties of the forming machine. In multistage processes, the force path curve of each stage is influenced by the surrounding stages. This research focuses on the interaction between the forming machine and multistage processes with respect to the quality of the workpiece. The accuracy of the numerical results could be increased by coupling the process simulation with the machine simulation. Further influencing factors, such as different friction conditions during forming and the elasticity of the tool, were considered in the simulation. In addition, the thermal properties of the press were investigated and considered in the machine simulation. Hence, a better correlation between the numerical results and the experiment could be achieved.
