    The self piercing riveting & bonding composite connection point with aluminum plate was taken as the research object. In the early stage, through the dynamic tensile test and CAE simulation modeling calibration of the connection point under 3 working conditions of tension shear, tear and forward tension, the parameters in the constitutive relationship of CAE simulation model were accurately obtained. Finally, the comparative verification test of CAE collision simulation and high-speed impact was carried out for T-shaped components with multiple working conditions, CAE simulation accurately predicted and realized the failure of the connection point, and the simulation accuracy reached 95.9%. It accurately characterized the deformation and failure behavior of the riveted-bonded composite connection point under mixed complex working conditions, which has high practicability in the CAE simulation of vehicle collision.

    At present, the disposal of waste solvent for water-borne paint cleaning is a problem of the automotive industry that is difficult to overcome for high disposal cost and high technological difficulty. In order to solve this problem, membrane separation material & recycling technology was invented, which separated and recycled the waste solvent produced in painting and color change and cleaning of painting equipment by membrane separation & recycling technology. In this process, 75% of water was recycled and reused in the painting line, while the paint was extracted to make renewable paint, the material was thus recycled and reused. The technology has been applied to Audi painting line for 2 years with reliable performance, the cost reduction of the 150,000 units painting line exceeded 5 million yuan.

    Projection welding of M12 ring convex welding nut and 2.5 mm thick plate has the defect of faulty welding, using energy storage welding machine in place of power frequency convex welding machine can solve the defect of faulty welding. There is an optimal combination of welding voltage, tempering voltage and welding pressure in the welding parameters of the energy storage welder. The orthogonal test is suitable for optimizing the optimal welding parameters. The optimized parameters (welding voltage 650 V, tempering voltage 650 V, welding pressure 16 kN) were used for test welding to obtain a convex welding joint with ejection force of 33.55 kN, which was greater than the target value of 16 kN. The high strength joining between ring convex welding nut and thick plate is realized, proving that the capacitor energy storage welding machine has the advantages of energy saving, high efficiency and stable welding quality, which is suitable for the welding between large nut sizing over M10 and thick plate.

    In view of the situation that existing CAPP system for engine valve is difficult to directly group and establish a database problem for the valve parts made by the enterprise, a valve part grouping program was developed based on grouping technology. For the problem that CAPP system characteristic cannot indicate clearly after matching the positions needing modification for the existing process files, the relationship between valve part characteristic and machining was simulated based on numerical control technology, and a new matching program of valve parts characteristic was developed.

    This paper described the phenomenon of punching delamination of hot-rolled steel plate 700L for frame side rails and its harm. Through macro and micro observation, combined with the blanking process principle, the factors of material, process and mechanism that lead to delamination in punching were analyzed. It is believed that severe plastic deformation during punching leads to serious fibrosis of the structure, and the fibrous structure delaminates or breaks under the action of shear stress and normal stress, forming a competitive mechanism with the generation and expansion of main cracks in the tear band. If the delamination and fracture of the fiber occur later than the crack of the tear band, the delamination or serrated fracture on the surface of the punched hole can be prevented. Using Theory of Inventive Problem Solving(TRIZ) theory, the prestressed punching process is designed and developed, which not only ensures the integrity of the punched hole surface, but also ensures the punch life.
