Abstract

Determining the True Strain in the air bending process is of fundamental importance for predicting possible failures in the bent region of the formed part. Among steels classified as conventional, SAE1010 is used in the manufacture of parts for a wide variety of market segments. This study aims to evaluate mathematical equations for calculating the True Strain in the outer fibers of the bending region that occur in the air bending process for this steel and compare them with the results of scientific work obtained for AHSS S900MC steel, through analytical calculation methods and computer simulation, comparing them with results obtained through experimental analyses. Four punches were used, varying for each one the distance between the die supports and the punch displacement. It was verified through experimental analysis that the measured values of True Strain are different in the outer fibers of the bending region. However, it was found that the values obtained through analytical calculation methods for conventional SAE1010 steel are the same as those verified for AHSS S900MC steel, despite the materials having peculiar mechanical properties. The predictability, through the analytical method, in relation to the experimental values of the True Strain for conventional SAE1010 steel ranged from -25.7% to 8.3%.
