Abstract
Due to the need for weight reduction in the automobile structure, effective and accurate forming is demanded to take advantage of ultrahigh-strength steels. Research on the deep-drawing formability of Usibor®2000 has an important impact on the application of lightweight automotive bodies. The microstructure and formability of Usibor®2000 sheets at different temperatures were investigated by the Swift test. The positive effects of increasing the temperature on improving the forming limit and forming quality of Usibor®2000 were demonstrated by LDR results, thickness, and hardness measurement. The microstructure evolution of Usibor®2000 steel plates under warm forming and hot forming conditions was discussed in terms of microstructure characterization and precipitate morphology. The phase composition of the sample deformed at 860 °C is analyzed by two-step etching metallographic analysis…
