Abstract
A new springback cause analysis method was developed for sheet press forming with measured 3-dimentional shapes of dies and a formed part. In conventional springback cause analysis, a stress distribution is calculated by elasto-plastic FEM analysis of press forming. The newly developed method can be directly applied to a press formed part and its forming dies: an elastic FEM analysis of press forming is conducted using measured shapes of both a pressed part and forming dies, and a stress distribution which causes springback is obtained; and then a springback cause analysis is carried out based on the stress distribution. This calculation method is easier than that of conventional press forming simulation because plastic material properties and friction parameters are not required in its procedure. The philosophy of the new method and an example of application to an automotive part are described in this paper.
