| Abstract: | Punching is a fundamental and extensively employed process in the field of cold forming, prized for its operational simplicity, high performance, and ability to produce components of superior quality. However, the process is inherently complex, as the selection of optimal punching parameters remains a challenging endeavor. Achieving a high-quality punched product is critically dependent on the precise and validated choice of these parameters, which directly influence the mechanical and geometrical integrity of the final component. In this study, the shear zone height, a key indicator of punched part quality, is systematically investigated. The finite element method (FEM), integrated with the Johnson-Cook material model, is employed to simulate and analyze the influence of various punching parameters on the shear zone height, with particular emphasis on the effect of different punch shaft shapes. The Johnson-Cook model, renowned for its accuracy in capturing material behavior under high strain rates and temperatures, enables a robust and reliable simulation framework. The results of this investigation reveal that punch tools featuring a pointed shaft shape exhibit an almost constant distribution of shear zone height across a range of punching parameters. This consistency suggests that such designs are less sensitive to parameter variations, thereby offering a more stable and predictable performance. Consequently, the pointed punch shape is identified as the optimal configuration for achieving superior punched part quality, minimizing defects, and enhancing process reliability. This work contributes to the advancement of cold forming technology by providing insights into the relationship between punch geometry and shear zone characteristics, ultimately facilitating the selection of punching parameters for improved product quality and process efficiency.
