An Experimental Study on the Effect of Die Chamfer Shape and V-Ring Position on Die Roll Height in the Fine Blanking of a Special Part with Various Corner Shapes

Abstract

In this paper, a change of die roll height according to the die chamfer shape and V-ring distance of a fine blanking tool was studied by experiments on a special part with various corner shapes. Three guide plate inserts with different V-ring positions and three die inserts with different die chamfers were machined, and then a fine blanking tool was manufactured for the fine blanking experiments. Nine experiments were conducted on a 650-ton fine blanking press. Each die roll height was measured and analyzed. It would be noticed that the die roll heights on the corner shapes of the fine blanked parts increased with increasing V-ring distance and die chamfer angle, but it decreased with increasing corner radius and angle. The results in this study can be used to minimize the die roll height of fine blanked parts with corner shapes when designing the V-ring and die chamfer of a fine blanking tool.
