Design of Virtual Prototype for Cold Roll Forming Machine of Side Panel of Engineering Vehicles and Numerical Simulation of the Forming Process

摘要

In this paper, based on the engineering vehicle's side plate cold roll forming machine developed by a company, we use 3D solid modeling software Solid Works to complete the establishment of a 3D model. On the basis of explicit dynamics elastoplastic finite element method basic theory, we make numerical simulation analysis of the metal plate's forming process by using ANSYS/LS-DYNA module. According to the simulation results, we make repeated adjustment and optimization on its pass system and parameters. Through the numerical simulation of the forming process, we conclude the stress-strain distribution of the sheet metal. For similar products, the result has a certain reference value to the research of cold roll forming process and the design of cold roll forming equipments.
