Abstract
A system for major classification of sheet metal forming process variables is established. Subsequently five major sheet forming process variables — blank size, blank location, binder force, material thickness and lubrication — were selected for investigation. The effects of these variables on panel quality were quantified by determining panel strain state and buckle severity.
