Development of a Simple Closed-Loop Type Algorithm for Determination of Variable Blank Holder Force Trajectory and Its Applications to Square Cup Deep Drawing

In deep drawing, a low blank holder force (BHF) can cause wrinkling, while a high BHF can lead to tearing. In this study, a variable blank holder force (VBHF) approach to deep drawing is employed, and a simple closed-loop type algorithm is developed for the VBHF trajectory. The proposed algorithm is...
