Abstract

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.
