Abstract
In the deep drawing process, achieving a higher drawing ratio has always been considered by researchers. In this study, a new concept of hydrodynamic deep drawing with two consecutive stages without additional operations such as annealing is proposed to increase the limit drawing ratio of the cups. The effective parameters were investigated numerically and experimentally in the forming of Al1200 cylindrical cups. At first, the desired value of punch diameter ratio was determined based on finite element simulation results and was utilized to increase the cup formability. Next, the effects of pressure paths on the cup thickness, separation and rupture were studied in each forming stage. The cup formability was investigated based on a new proposed framework to obtain the maximum possible limiting drawing ratio, and the desired conditions were determined. Finally, a cup was formed with a high drawing ratio of 3.4 which was a good achievement in comparison with the literature.
