With the current tendency of mass production towards customer-oriented serial production, blanking processes are facing new challenges. They require an increase in knowledge about faulty process conditions and their influence on the quality of a component as well as an instruction for a target-oriented adaptation of the process. The aim of this study is therefore to identify property deviations based on force-displacement curves and to establish correlations between the quality of the component and features of force-displacement curves. For this purpose, parameter variations are carried out on a high-speed press and features are extracted from these measured time series. Afterwards, the correlation between varying process parameters and features is carried out to obtain a conclusion about the condition of the component. The results of these studies for a regression analysis form the basis for a decision support system to identify deviations of the component as well as faulty process conditions. The paper shows that a reliable correlation between the quality of the component and force-displacement curves is possibly based on the feature engineering approach even under industrial boundary conditions. This also applies to the simultaneous modification and variations within a limited range of several process parameters.
