Abstract

The design of the strip layout and in particular, the geometry of the stretch web connector in progressive die stamping has so far been predominantly experience-based aiming for material utilization and cost optimization. Disruptive vibrations of the highly dynamic transportation of the strip can lead to reduced part quality and at worst, to a component collision and a damaging of the tooling. Therefore, the stroke rate and the production rate often need to be reduced. A physical model is developed, which describes the mechanical properties of the stretch web, taking the requirements of the progressive die stamping process into account. These properties are material- and geometry-dependent and are determined by a finite element model, which is validated by experimental tensile and impact modal testing. Based on the most common stretch web shapes found in industrial applications, a study of the influence of the stretch web geometry on its physical properties for the use of progressive die stamping is conducted to.
