Abstract (EN): Finite Element Modeling (FEM) can be a valuable addition to computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) along with other kinds of analysis and tools such as computer aided design (CAD), manufacturing (CAM) and engineering (CAE). A FEM program for analyzing sheet stamping operations has been developed to simulate sheet metal stamping processes. Most of these processes involve axi-symmetric, plane strain or plane stress analysis for which a two-dimensional finite element simulation code can give important and necessary directions to the best compromise of stamping variables to be used, before tool manufacturing and parts production. Major advantages of such analysis are fast answers and possible use of PC's instead of workstations. This paper describes the use of a static explicit finite element simulation code and its implementation to work and be used on a Pentium based PC. Comparison of simulated results and experimental ones is presented, as well as comparison of CPU time efficiency for PC and workstation.
