A study on the load characteristics of the asym metry pinch yoke according to the shape of the die
In this study, the effect of upper die type on the load characteristics of lower die and the wasted material was studied numerically. The different shapes(A-type, B-type, and C-type) of upper die were applied. Also finite element analysis method was applied for the analysis in each stage. The half of X, Y plane was analyzed due to the symmetrical shape in order to reduce the analysis time and be accurate results. The coefficient of friction was set to oil_cold conditions as refer to the system library.
It was revealed that principal stress was the order in A, C, and B. A and B type have the highest value in 4 stage, and C type shows the highest value in 3 stage. In addition, Von mises stress were higher in order A, B, and C. A and B type have the highest in 4 stage, and C type shows to have about the same value in the 2 - 5 stage. The load was generally higher than C type. The load of C type was reduced in YY-direction at each stage without 2, 5, 6 stage.
