Abstract

In the present study, the deep drawing of polymer coated metallic sheets were experimentally investigated to reduce friction and increase manufacturing efficiency without using a lubricant. Coating of metal sheets with a polymer material before the deep drawing process provides numerous other advantages such as long service life, decorative appearance, corrosion protection, prevention of excessive abrasion. In the experiments, deep drawing ratio, blank holder pressure, and punch speed parameters were varied at various intervals and the obtained values were evaluated via graphs. Experiments of the uncoated metal sheets were conducted as well as the coated ones to compare the results. Results of this study showed that the polymer coating improved the surface quality of the test specimens. As a result of this improvement; the average molding forces decreased, obtained deep drawing ratios increased and defects such as tearing and wrinkling were alleviated by coating metal sheets with polymer material compared to uncoated sheets. © 2019, KSME & Springer.
