Towards an optimized process planning of multistage deep drawing: an overview

Purpose: To present a concise literature review on the optimization techniques used for the single stage and multistage deep drawing process, and to identify directions for future research. A perspective on a comprehensive optimized computer aided process planning is provided for multistage deep drawing processes. This is an integrated rule base/dynamic programming/finite element approach that minimizes the total number of stages and heat treatment needed. Design/methodology/approach: Relevant research is classified according to the major process parameters and the optimization techniques used. Main features and major outcome of the applications are presented. Findings: There is a lack in the literature in providing a comprehensive approach for optimizing the multistage deep drawing process. Research limitations/implications: Directions for future research towards integrative models for optimizing the multistage deep drawing process that take into consideration economic as well as operational objectives are
