Edge passivation of the punch is a common phenomenon that is induced by wear and which would affect tool life and part quality. To investigate the edge passivation of fine-blanking punch, a wear tester based on sheet metal extrusion was designed. The relevance of the designed tester in terms of the stress state to the fine-blanking process was analyzed via finite element methods. Meanwhile, material...
