Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a manufacturing method of a bottomed cylindrical body, which can achieve both severe can making processing such as conventional drawing and ironing, and cost reduction and environmental load reduction in a washing step. A manufacturing method of a bottomed cylindrical body includes a drawing step of drawing a metal sheet by use of forming members each of which has a hardness of Hv 1500 to 12000 at its processing surface, and an ironing step of ironing a workpiece into the bottomed cylindrical body via a coolant by use of forming members each of which has a carbon film at its processing surface, and the coolant is a water-soluble coolant or a coolant having a boiling point of lower than 300° C., or a manufacturing method of a bottomed cylindrical body includes a drawing step of drawing a metal sheet by use of a drawing die, which has a hardness of more than Hv 1500 to 12000 at its processing surface, and a drawing punch, which has a hardness of Hv 1000 to 12000 at its processing surface, and an ironing step of ironing a workpiece into the bottomed cylindrical body via a coolant by use of forming members each of which has a hardness of Hv 1500 to 12000 at its processing surface, and the coolant satisfies at least any one of (a) a coolant of lower than 4.0 vol. % concentration of contained oil, (b) a water-soluble coolant, and (c) a coolant having a boiling point of lower than 300° C.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A manufacturing method of a bottomed cylindrical body, comprising: a drawing step of drawing a metal sheet by use of forming members each of which has a hardness of more than Hv 1500 to 12000 at a processing surface thereof; and an ironing step of ironing a workpiece into the bottomed cylindrical body via a coolant by use of forming members each of which has a carbon film at a processing surface thereof, wherein the coolant is a water-soluble coolant and/or a coolant having a boiling point of lower than 300° C. 2 . The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the bottomed cylindrical body is a seamless can body. 3 . The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the metal sheet is an aluminum alloy. 4 . The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the carbon film is a diamond film. 5 . The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , further comprising: before the drawing step of drawing the metal sheet, a lubricant application step of applying, to the metal sheet, a water-soluble lubricant and/or a lubricant having a boiling point of lower than 300° C., wherein the hardness of the processing surface of each forming member in the drawing step is Hv 1500 to 12000. 6 . The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the coolant contains a preservative and/or a corrosion inhibitor. 7 . The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , further comprising: a washing step of removing a lubricant and/or the coolant attached on a surface of the bottomed cylindrical body. 8 . The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , further comprising: a purification step of purifying effluent discharged in the ironing step and/or a washing step. 9 . A manufacturing method of a bottomed cylindrical body, comprising: a drawing step of drawing a metal sheet by use of a drawing die, which has a hardness of more than Hv 1500 to 12000 at a processing surface thereof, and a drawing punch, which has a hardness of Hv 1000 to 12000 at a processing surface thereof; and an ironing step of ironing a workpiece into the bottomed cylindrical body via a coolant by use of forming members each of which has a hardness of Hv 1500 to 12000 at a processing surface thereof, wherein the coolant satisfies at least any one of (a) a coolant of lower than 4.0 vol % concentration of contained oil, (b) a water-soluble coolant, and (c) a coolant having a boiling point of lower than 300° C. 10 . The manufacturing method according to claim 9 , wherein the bottomed cylindrical body is a seamless can body. 11 . The manufacturing method according to claim 9 , wherein the metal sheet is an aluminum alloy. 12 . The manufacturing method according to claim 9 , wherein a carbon film is formed on the processing surface of each forming member in the drawing step, and/or on the processing surface of each forming member in the ironing step. 13 . The manufacturing method according to claim 9 , further comprising: before the drawing step, a lubricant application step of applying a lubricant to surfaces of the metal sheet, wherein the hardness of the processing surface of the drawing die in the drawing step is Hv 1000 to 12000. 14 . The manufacturing method according to claim 9 , further comprising: a purification step of purifying effluent discharged in the ironing step or a washing step after the ironing step.
