Modelling and Design of Punch and its Operation on Sheet

Abstract

Punching of a sheet is widely used in manufacturing industries due to its applications. It can be used to give the required shape or to process a hole. It can be very large or small depending upon the application required. A lot of household items are being made by punching operation. Punching involves parts such as punch which applies the force and is motion, sheet on which load is being applied, blank die which gives the shapes to the sheet and blank holder which holds the sheet on its position. The present work focuses on the survey of the earlier work done on the punching operation. Modelling of the punching assembly is conducted in the present work. During punching operation which parts come under maximum load, and different types of stresses developed during the punching operation were also studied and reviewed in the present work.

Keywords: Punching, sheet, blank die, blank holder, finite element analysis (FEA)
