Abstract
Hydro mechanical deep drawing (HMDD) is an emerging technology that reduces the number of sheet-forming stages and increases the production of advanced lightweight materials with intricate shapes. This study aims to verify the springback in HMDD and the effect of holding time and fluid pressure on this phenomenon (springback). The springback was measured using a new method by matching the projector p-300 axes with the cylindrical cup wall. The difference between the wall and the axis represents the springback value. Using a blank of low carbon steel (1008-AISI) with 80 mm of diameter and a thickness of 0.7 mm. The effect of holding time (1, 2, and 3 minutes) and the fluid pressure (0.6, 0.8, and 1 N/mm2) was studied. The used hydraulic oil was (code number 3803). The springback value of a cylindrical cup was calculated using the profile projector P-300. The result showed that the springback phenomenon was presented in the hydromechanical deep-drawing process but at a lower rate than the traditional deep-drawing process. The holding time and fluid pressure significantly affected the springback value. The springback decreased with increasing the fluid pressure and holding time.
