Abstract
This study was the use of the finite element method in the deep drawing process of a rectangular shell cup. The aim was to analyse the equivalent strain in the workpiece and to find out what happened to the disc blank sheet before the forming by stamping. The rectangular shell cup was $\small{24{\times}30{\times}20}$ mm. and made of 2mm.thick SUS 403 and SUS 304 stainless steel. There were 3 types of blank sheets: 1) square sheet 2) 45 degree angled edge cutting sheet 3) circular sheet. It was found out that the drawing up with the use of 3 types of blank sheet made of SUS 304 stainless steel had no risk in the workpiece. For the stamping of the rectangular shell that used a square sheet made of SUS 403 stainless steel, it was found out that there was no risk in the work piece, but with the use of 45 degree angled edge cutting sheet or round sheet, the work piece had a risk to be damaged.
