This leads to consi<strong>de</strong>r burr as<strong>the</strong> best criterion for regrinding or renewing tools. Thus, in or<strong>de</strong>r to control <strong>the</strong> quality and cost in blankingprocess, it is necessary to measure with <strong>the</strong> best accuracy <strong>the</strong> amount of burr and wear punch. To do this, amethod for measuring <strong>the</strong> volume of burr was <strong>de</strong>veloped. This method is based on <strong>the</strong> use of 3Dtopographical images. On <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r hand, punch wear was calculated by combination of a ma<strong>the</strong>maticalmo<strong>de</strong>l to <strong>the</strong> geometric shape of punch. This mo<strong>de</strong>l gives <strong>the</strong> geometry variations of <strong>the</strong> punch, <strong>de</strong>pending on<strong>the</strong> number of press storks. At <strong>the</strong> end, <strong>the</strong> aim of this study is to i<strong>de</strong>ntify a relationship between burr andpunch wearKey words: Blanking, Burr amount, Punch wear, Cut edge profile, Worn geometry1 INTRODUCTIONIn <strong>the</strong> blanking industry, <strong>the</strong> punch wear has asignificant impact on production. In particular,important wear causes a wrong geometry of <strong>the</strong> cutpieces, which can lead to a rejection of products.Among o<strong>the</strong>r <strong>de</strong>fects, <strong>the</strong> apparition of burr is <strong>the</strong>most incapacitating in <strong>the</strong> use of <strong>the</strong> blanking piece.So, in or<strong>de</strong>r to overcome this problem, industrialsregrind <strong>the</strong>ir tools after a number of press storks. Butthis operation has a negative consequence on costs.In fact, <strong>the</strong> production stopping for regrindingpunches creates substantial losses for <strong>the</strong> industry.Thus, it is important to control aspects of <strong>the</strong>blanking operation leading to <strong>the</strong> appearance of burr.To do this, it is necessary to have in advance areliable way to measure <strong>the</strong> quantity of burr. In thispaper, we present an original method for <strong>the</strong>quantification of <strong>the</strong> volume of burr. Moreover, afirst approximation of <strong>the</strong> burr amount with <strong>the</strong> levelof wear and <strong>the</strong> cutting materiel is also presented.2 BLANKING BURRamount, <strong>the</strong> cutting pieces can be unusable.Fig. 1.Geometry of <strong>the</strong> cutting edge.HR : Roll-over <strong>de</strong>pth.HS : Sheared edge.HF : Fracture <strong>de</strong>pth.Hb : Burr height.φ : Fracture angle.Given <strong>the</strong> important issues related to <strong>the</strong> appearanceof blanking burr, a lot of work has been un<strong>de</strong>rtakento explain <strong>the</strong> appearance. Most of this work was<strong>de</strong>voted to <strong>the</strong> study of <strong>the</strong> influence of blankingconditions (clearance, radius, etc...) (Fig. 2), on <strong>the</strong>appearance of burr.The burr occurs on <strong>the</strong> cutting edge of pieces (fig.1),this presence is one of <strong>the</strong> most serious limitations of<strong>the</strong> blanking process.
