Experimental, Design and Development of different punch and die for head light reflectors

Mechanical Engineering

In the sheet metal industry die is the most significant instrument required for production. It is difficult to keep up exactness with precision in sheet metal industry on the off chance that we don't have precisely planned press device. These press apparatuses are utilized to fabricate the items from the crude material for example sheet metal. The plan of die cast the dust is to a great extent relying upon material of sheet metal, thickness of sheet metal and unpredictability of structure and tasks. Present work is completed to structure the pass on which can play out the punching activity, to produce the different shape at bottom with (circular, square and hexagonal) shape of front light reflectors. So here we are designing the punch and compound die of mild steel sheet having one mm thickness of aluminium alloy sheet metal. The CAD Model of punch and die with punch base as circular, square and hexagonal shape is designed using CATIA V5 R20 software and then its nonlinear analysis will be performed using the ANSYS Software. Further the testing will be done using the UTM and theoretical results are compared with the practical results
