Abstract

The springback behavior of AHSS (Advanced High Strength Steels) is more serious than ordinary mild steels. Currently, deformations due to springback can be compensated by modifying the tool geometry in the industry, which often consumes for a long time. In addition, the stamping parts usually need welding and assembly, and the welded part also has deformation. Therefore, an integrated process combines stamping and welding is presented in this paper, including stamping, placing welding parts and spot welding a total of 3 processes. This paper takes Ω-shaped parts as the object of study. The dynamic explicit method is adopted in the stamping process, and the static implicit method is used for the analysis of the stress release process. The effect of welding location, thickness of welding plate and width of welding plate on geometrical dimension are considered. Finally, the results of finite element analysis is evaluated by the validation experiment. The result shows that the combination of stamping and welding process can effectively reduce the springback value, and the deformation of the stamping part is less than 1mm. After the stress of the welded part is released, the stress on the inner and outer surface of the Ω-shaped part can be greatly reduced along the thickness direction.
