2015 Nagform SM Calc

The document describes a sheet metal process calculator that can perform several calculations to help design sheet metal forming sequences. Specifically, it can calculate: (1) the number of deep drawing operations needed to form circular cups along with cup dimensions and forces, (2) bend allowance, setback, and bending forces for V-bending, (3) deep drawing forces for rectangular shells, and (4) spring back and edge strains for flanging. The calculator draws on material properties and part dimensions to determine key parameters for various forming steps.

Sheet Metal Process Calculator


NAGFORMSheet contains a calculator to help design the
forming sequence. Following calculations can be performed:

 Deep Drawing of Circular Shells –


o Given circular cup inside diameter, height and
material, the calculator determines the number of
deep drawing operations needed to form the cup.
o Cup dimensions at each deep drawing operation are
also calculated.
o Determines the deep drawing force, redrawing force
and blank holder pressure required.

 Bending Calculations – Given dimensions of the bend


including sheet thickness, angle and K Factor of material,
the program determines the bend allowance and setback
for Vee Bending. The program also calculates the Vee
bending and Wipe bending forces based on the tensile
strength of the sheet material.

 Deep Drawing of Rectangular Shells - Given dimensions


of rectangular shell and material, the calculator determines
the deep drawing force required with different types of
blank holders.

 Spring Back Calculations - Given the material properties,


bend angle and bend radius, the program calculates the
spring-back in terms of change in bend angle and radius.

 Stretch and Shrink Flanging - Given the dimensions before


and after flanging, the program calculates the edge strains
for shrink and stretch flanging processes. The edge strain
can be compared with limiting strains for various materials
to determine feasibility of flanging.
