Stamping set modeling to aluminum coins manufacturing through 3D software CAD/CAE

Abstract

The time-to-response, level of accuracy and its consequent quality required to manufactured goods have demanded from engineers efficient methods to get a reasonable design. Following this trend finite elements methods have been used for years in order to predict design constrains and front loading potential issues prior to the manufacturing. Among several manufacturing processes this paper will highlight stamping process in a high level way and how finite elements simulations can support analysis of displacement and deformation of parts when an external load is submitted. It was used SolidWorks software to generate the meshes and perform the simulation.
