Abstract
In this work a methodological scheme for a reduction of both the try-out and lead-time of complex dies is presented. The finite element simulation of the system press/tool behaviour along the stamping process results in criteria for the best design of high-cost dies/punches. Modifications of the main geometry, components and functional parameters are so recommended. Die deflection during the pressing process is in this work investigated. With the proposed methodology die manufacturers are able to avoid errors coming from die deformation due to their asymmetrical shape. At the same time, time of manual adjustment and polishing is reduced in a 30%. Examples are deeply explained as well as experimental evidences.
