Abstract

Deep drawing is a widely employed metal forming technique recognized for its ability to produce high-strength, lightweight components with remarkable cost efficiency compared to alternative methods. This article delves into the advantages inherent to deep drawing, including expedited press cycle times, reduced operations necessary to complete a part, and the capacity to fabricate intricate geometries that remain unattainable through alternative manufacturing processes. Presently, forming simulations predominantly follow a trial-and-error approach to formulate a forming process that yields acceptable results. However, as the complexity and scale of data in finite element models escalate, computational time proportionally surges. Hence, the primary objective is to develop an efficient, automated optimization method for the deep drawing process
