A. Ravi Teja, A. Chennakesava Reddy

Abstract: Simulation of single point incremental deep drawing process for AA1070 sheet with the help of finite element software and Taguchi experimental techniques. Blank thickness, step depth, tool radius and coefficient of friction are the process parameters for the conical frustum cups. It has been found that the tool radius and coefficient of friction are highly influential in controlling the formability of cups.
