LiaoDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, National Taiwan University, Taipei, TaiwanWrinkling that occurs in the stamping of tapered square cups and stepped rectangular cups is investigated
A common characteristic of these two types of wrinkling is that the wrinkles are found at the draw wall that is relatively unsupported
In the stamping of a tapered square cup, the effect of process parameters, such as the die gap and blank-holder force, on the occurrence of wrinkling is examined using finiteelement simulations
The simulation results show that the larger the die gap, the more severe is the wrinkling, and such wrinkling cannot be s
