The invention relates to a system and a process of forming sheets comprising:
a sheet deforming means comprising punch, blank holder and die; strain measuring
means provided on the said sheet deforming means; data acquisition, means
provided with Artificial Neural network (ANN) capabilities, output device
configured with the said sheet deforming and strain measuring means; wherein
in the process of forming, strain data from the said strain measuring means
is fed into the data acquisition and processing means wherein ANN architecture
is developed and ANN trained in the said processing means to arrive at a
the sheet material specification to produce sheet product/s of desired shapes/geometries,
meet user to defined quality parameters, effect of change in tool parameters
and processing conditions on quality of the product.
