Measurement of the Limit Strains on TS 245 Tinplate

The paper deals with measurement of limit strains for tinplate TS 245 made by US Steel with nominal thickness 0.3 mm. The FLC curve has been measured by implementation of Nakajima test on testing device Erichsen 145-60. The Nakajima test has been measured according to EN ISO 12004-2. Limit strains have been measured using 3D photogrammetric system Argus by GOM. Forming limit curve was evaluated in the software Argus. During test, some problems have been solved concerning friction on hemispherical punch which affected fracture position on the dome. Reached FLC curve was implemented in material database of PAM-Stamp 2G simulation software.
