The design of the punch and die cavity can be optimized to reduce the probability of wrinkling.
Choosing a flange radius that is just large enough to prevent cracking can minimize the potential
for wrinkles.
Consider increasing the blank holding force to account for the reduced friction
Lubricants reduce the friction between the blank and the punch and die cavity and can be liquid
(wet) or films (dry). Generally, they are applied to the blank before drawing.
