Abstract (en)

[origin: US7086265B2] A method for controlling the material flow during the deep-drawing of sheet metal involves compressing the edges of the sheet metal ( 1 ) between at least one upper stopper ( 13 ) and at least one lower stopper ( 6, 7 ) during the deep-drawing process, with a controllable elastic force ( 8, 9 ). A corresponding deep-drawing tool is also provided. A Z-shaped blocking step ( 11 ) is stamped into the edge ( 1 a) of the sheet metal when the upper and lower stoppers ( 13, 6, 7 ) are closed, the basic shape is then produced by deep-drawing, maintaining the blocking step ( 11 ) and completely blocking the sheet metal between the stoppers. The sheet metal ( 1 ) is outwardly stretched, and the blocking step ( 11 ) is then reduced in terms of height, facilitating the outward displacement of the sheet metal towards the outside. The deep-drawing tool has a lower stopper including an inner stopper ( 6 ) and an outer stopper ( 7 ). The stoppers are arranged in an annular manner on the edge of the sheet metal ( 1 ) and can be displaced in relation to each other in the holding direction.
