Abstract
The effects of process parameters on room-temperature (RT) deep drawability were investigated for AZ31B magnesium alloy sheets, in which the formation of basal texture was suppressed by high-temperature rolling. When the blank holder force was set to the minimum value to prevent wrinkling, high RT drawability was obtained. In particular, a significantly high limiting drawing ratio (LDR) of 1.83 was obtained by the optimization of the process parameters of the servo-press machine. At higher punch speeds, the drawability tended to be deteriorated; however, a high LDR of 1.72 was obtained even at a high punch speed of 50mm/s by the optimization of the process parameters of the servo-press machine. Furthermore, when the punch speed in the initial stage of deep drawing was reduced, it was possible to perform deep drawing without fracture even if the punch speed in the later stages was increased. The results of the study of the effect of lubricants indicated that relatively high RT drawability was obtained when molybdenum disulfide was utilized. It was also suggested to be important to select a lubricant that reduces punch load and does not delaminate during deep drawing.
