Abstract

Hot stamping process is a complex process and the performance of food-can tinplate under high-temperature state is completely different from at room temperature. It will bring out some difficulties for the application of incremental method in early stages of food-can product design. In this study, it is the first time to put forward that the Finite Element Method of One-Step Inverse Forming can be used in hot stamping process of High-Strength food-can tinplate, which can evaluate the high temperature formability of sheet metal. The results show that: One-Step Inverse Forming FEM of High-Strength food-can tinplate is suitable for the initial die design stage because of its simple simulation method and high speed and is used to evaluate the high temperature formability of food-can tinplate.

Keywords:

Finite Element Method (FEM), high-strength food-can tinplate, one-step inverse forming,
