Hot Stamping Simulation with PAM-STAMP of the B-pillar of a well-known SUV

摘要

Hot stamping is today the most efficient method to lighten automotive parts by keeping or even increasing vehicle security. The B-pillar of this report is from a well-known SUV's style 2013 from a big JV OEM in Shanghai. 3 steps job were completed: die designing, blank generation and optimization, hot stamping simulation. Customer's feedback showed a good correlation between FE analysis and trial out results.
