Problemas de roturas solucionados con la herramienta AFC


Case Study Overview

The client provided product design and tool design data and requested a virtual tryout of the draw process.The aim was to determine if splits experienced in reality, were expected OR caused by other unknown influences.

    As per the tool design, no draw beads were used with a square blank. The lower binder travelled down, under the applied binder force.

    The outputs from the simulation show that simulation matches reality and that splits are predicted.

    This problem could have been avoided by using simulation BEFORE tooling fabrication.Although not reported here, using simulation a solution to the problem was developed and presented to the client to resolve the splitting problem.
