The prediction of tool wear in conventional deep-drawing is accomplish
ed using the finite-element method. The distribution of tool wear on t
he draw-die profile is obtained and compared to industrial observation
s. This is achieved by proposing a semi-empirical wear model in which
the tool wear is a function of both the normal pressure and the relati
ve velocity between the sheet and the tooling. Furthermore, a paramete
r study has been carried out to see the effect on the tool wear when c
hanging selected parameters, for example the blank thickness and the s
train hardening. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
