| Abstract: | The application of fracture in three-point bending to blanking of bearing steel is studied in this paper. Several mechanical models of stress blanking are discussed at first. And then the experiments have been made in special equipment of three-point bending designed by us. Several problems, such as the suitable span, the relations between bending and tension bending complex, the ratio of blanking length to the diameter, the relations of blank length to force, the feature of fracture, are studied through the experiments. The suitable parameters of three-point bending to blanking, depth and tip radius of notch and the ratio between blanking length and stick diameter have been proposed. |
