Many industrial parts are obtained through cold stamping and forming operations as they present numerous advantages such as expanding the scope of application, by replacing cast or forged parts with stamped or stamped and welded parts; developing small-scale or one-off production; optimizing material consumption; achieving high precision of stamped or cold-formed parts; increasing the productivity of the finished product by mechanizing and automating the stamping and cold forming processes; using cold stamping and forming processes during assembly; achieving the longest possible life of dies and molds in large-scale and mass production. The efficiency of forming processes and the quality of the parts depend on the physical and mechanical properties of the mild steel materials used. The paper presents the results obtained in the tensile testing of some types of mild structural steels and analysis of mechanical properties with type of rolled steel and cutting direction information necessary in the manufacture of parts by stamping.
