Full Description

1.1 This test method gives the procedure for constructing a forming limit curve (FLC) for a metallic sheet material by using a hemispherical deformation punch test and a uniaxial tension test to quantitatively simulate biaxial stretching and deep drawing processes. 1.1.1 Fig. 1 shows an example of a forming limit curve on a schematic forming limit diagram (FLD). FIG. 1 Schematic Forming Limit Diagram Note 1: The upper curve represents the forming limit curve. Strains below the lower curve do not occur during forming metallic sheet products in the most stamping press operations. Curves to the left of % e₂ = 0 are for constant area of the test specimen surface. 1.2 FLCs are useful in evaluating press performance by metal fabrication strain analysis. 1.3 The method applies to metallic sheet from 0.5 mm (0.020 in.) to 3.3 mm (0.130 in.). 1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses after SI units are provided for information only and are not considered standard. 1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
