Abstract
Precision cutting is a single stroke shear cutting process to achieve a flush-cut amount between 60 and 90% of the sheet thickness by using a single-acting standard press. This paper presents a method to quantify the amount of required compression stresses based on theoretical and experimental precision cutting tests in which the stress state is overlaid by an additional radial pre-load on the strip. It was found that even a minimal pre-load of 30% of the yield stress can move the stress level to a state with lower tensile stress.
