BALDI DE COSTA, CLARA. Determination of the force center in a blanking die using a CAD program. Rev. Fac. Ing. UCV [online]. 2006, vol.21, n.3, pp.141-144. ISSN 0798-4065.

The importance of a correct positioning of the force center in a blanking die is discussed. The mathematical process to determine the force center by calculating the centroid of a curve is described, and an approximation method is given, using an AutoCAD feature that calculates the centroid of a plane bi-dimensional region.

Keywords : blanking die; force center; centroid; AutoCAD.
