Abstract
This article investigates the impact of temperature regimes, corresponding to various climatic zones, on the manufacturing process and operation of beverage can ends made of aluminum alloy AA5182. The production process of aluminum beverage can ends involves multiple steps, including melting, rolling, and stamping, where different temperatures can influence both the production process and the properties of the final product. Furthermore, the mechanical behavior of the final product is affected by the aging process of alloy AA5182, which progresses at varying rates depending on the temperature conditions during storage. The objective of this study is to simulate the production process under various climatic conditions using the finite element method (FEM) and experimentally investigate the dependence of the strength of alloy AA5182 can ends on storage time and temperature. The findings of the study reveal that, under temperature conditions corresponding to warmer climates, the punching force can be reduced by approximately 15% compared to production in colder climates. Additionally, the strength of the finished can exhibits a decrease of about 10% during a month of storage in a warm climate, while no significant decrease was observed in colder climates. These results hold practical significance for the beverage production industry, as the manufacturing and operation of beverage cans are localized in diverse climatic zones.
