A pressed component manufacturing method wherein, in press forming a metal sheet into a final component shape through two or more press steps, the inflow amount of the required material is determined based on the increase in the cross-sectional line length of the shape with respect to the line length before forming when the metal sheet is press formed by a single press step, the determined amount is distributed to each step, and a preformed shape after press forming based on the distributed inflow amount. As the cross section, a line orthogonal to a direction in which the material flows when the metal sheet is drawn is set, and a plurality of cross sections is set which is individually cut by each of planes orthogonal to the line and extending in a direction along the sheet thickness direction of the metal sheet before forming.

A method that improves stretch flange formability of a steel sheet by individual treatment matching a material of the steel sheet without performing heat treatment in a die. This method is a method for manufacturing a steel sheet for cold press, and the steel sheet is manufactured by heating an edge of the steel sheet to a temperature within a heating temperature range preset according to a microstructure of the steel sheet and cooling the steel sheet. A region, within an edge of the steel sheet subjected to shearing in a shearing step, where it is estimated that a stretch flange crack is likely to occur when a press component is formed by cold pressing is determined, and a site to be heated and cooled is set within the region. By press-forming the manufactured steel sheet, a target press component is manufactured.

Provided is a method for forming a blank, the method being capable of improving both yields and formability. The method for forming a blankincludes forming the blankinto a preforming shape by plastic deformation and then plastically deforming the blankfrom the preforming shape into a final shape. The preforming shape is determined so that, in each of cross sections in the final shape, the ratio (L/L) of a cross-sectional line length Lin the preforming shape to a cross-sectional line length Lin the final shape in the same cross section position falls within a predetermined tolerance range.

Method for forming blank and method for determining preforming shape

A method and die set for manufacturing a metal component with a three-dimensional edge from a blank as a raw material. The blank is cut from a metal sheet and has a curve-shaped curved edge portion with two ends. The method includes providing a bend formation line and forming the three-dimensional shape using a first die and a second die.

A method enhances fatigue strength of ear portions which are high fatigue risk parts in a torsion beam almost without bringing about disadvantages in terms of productivity and cost. A torsion beam is formed with a portion of the tubular body into an approximately U-shape in cross section by crushing the portion of the tubular body in the radial direction and, thereafter, due to bending with a bottom line set as a belly side of bending, a bending strain of 2 to 6% in the tube longitudinal direction on a tensile side is imparted to the ear portions.
