Abstract
High tensile strength steel sheets have large springback after being formend at room temperature. Warm forming can be a solution to reduce springback of high tensile strength steel parts. NANOHITENTM is a high strength ferritic steel precipitation-strengthened by nanometer-sized carbides developed by JFE Steel Corporation. Tensile strength of the steel at room temperature does not change before and after deformation at elevated temperatures up to 873K since the carbides in the steel are stable at high temperatures less than 973K. Therefore, the steel is suitable for warm forming. Springback of 980MPa NANOHITENTM parts warm formed at 873K is the same level of that of cold formed conventional 590MPa steel parts. In this study, two kinds of material testing at room temperature and at elevated temperatures between 573K and 937K were performed to understand the mechanical behavior of 980MPa NANOHITENTM: uniaxial tensile tests and bending tests. The steels flow stress depends on not only material temperature but also strain rate in uniaxial tensile tests. After a bending test, the specimen shows springback measured by the change of an angle between the two sides. Stress relaxation happens while a test specimen is held at the bottom dead point after bending. And the stress relaxation could be used to reduce springback of warm formed parts.
