ABSTRACT

The finite element analysis model is established for the kitchen sink deep drawing. The drawing process was simulated and analyzed with the Dynaform. Comparing different condition simulation results with the experiment, the thinning rate, spring back for solving the sink drawing problems by finite element method has been validated. The effect of binder force on the result of simulation is also discussed. The thinning rate value would increase with the binder force increase. And, the spring back value would be the smallest if the holder force near 20KN.
