Deep drawing is one of the versatile process in manufacturing industry. Various cylindrical, cup and square shaped parts can be produced by using this process. It is desirable that parts should be manufactured without any defects. Deep drawing process has defects like wrinkling, tearing and thinning tendency which should be avoided. The finite element method is a powerful tool to predict material thinning deformations before prototypes are made. In this paper, thinning defect has been considered for a rectangular shaped part and simulation has been carried out using ABAQUS/Explicit student version. The CRCA steel blank with 0.5 mm thickness is used for simulation. Taguchi design of experiments and analysis of variance has been applied to analyze the influencing process parameters on Thinning. Analysis which shows that lubrication is the major contributing factor for thinning tendency.
