Adjusting complex process variables: Drawbead shapes
In Finite Element Analysis, it is common to treat the metal restraint due to draw beads as numerical factors applied along a curve or...
Stamping System: Press speed and lubrication challenges
Lately, one of the most frequently asked questions in metal forming simulation has been “Can your software model the effects of a servo press?”...
Tribology, friction, and lubrication: A new dimension to metal forming simulations
In our previous post on the stamping system, several environmental variables within production sheet metal stamping are mentioned. In that post we listed variables...
