Abstract

The industrial based prediction in sheet metal forming bases still on the Forming Limit Diagrams (FLD) as formally proposed by Keeler 1. The FLD are commonly specified by the Nakajima tests and evaluated with the so called cross section method. Although widely used, the FLC concept has numerous serious limitations. In the paper the influences of bending on the FLC as well as the later crack limits will be discussed. Both criteria will be combined to an extended FLC concept (X-FLC). The new concept demonstrates that the Nakajima tests are not only appropriate for the evaluation of the necking instability but for the detection of the real crack strains too. For the evaluation of the crack strains a new local thinning method is proposed and tested for special 6xxx Al-alloys.
