Previous modelling techniques in sheet forming of textile composites have focused on computational simulations due to the numerous computations involved. Recently a procedure for stretch forming analysis of plain weft-knitted fabric composites has been developed. The analytical model for the stretch forming process is now being extended for the deep drawing process in this paper. The theoretical strain field gives good approximation to the experimental results.

Previous investigations on forming of plain weft-knitted fabric composite sheets show the ease of stretching due to fabric loop straightening. Pure dependence on stretching alone, however, sets the limit to which the shell height can be further increased. Recent deep drawn knitted fabric composites give greater cup height in comparison to stretch formed cup. In this paper a method of predicting the achievable cup height is proposed with due consideration to the fabric structure and tool dimensions. Comparison between the theoretical and experimental cup height shows good agreement.
