The computer-aided formability
analysis introduces the virtual
engineering concept to the die
construction.
Every body part passes through
the complete pre-study of formability,
which consists of two steps. The
first study is carried out during
the detailed part design stage.
|
|
| Manufacturing engineers are involved in checking
formability of sheet metal parts, applying
the one-step forming simulation package (Autoform)
to the CAD model. The result of the study
is then reported back to part designers to
find ways to solve formability problems. |

_
When the part design is completed
and the die layout starts, the
detailed analysis is again performed
using the incremental forming
simulation software (Pam-stamp).
Engineers from process planning,
die design, machining, and tryout
section meet together to find
the optimal conditions for formability.
Once the tryout panel is obtained,
the simulation output is carefully
reviewed compared with the real
one, and the results are collected
in our knowledge base to be used
in the future. |

The development and application
of the new manufacturing technology
is our goal today.
To manufacture a high-strength,
light-weight automobile body,
several development programs have
been completed.
The flow analysis for a plastic
injection mold is another well-established
process in the center. |
