In the present investigation a conception of an adjustable hemming die for the assembly of a roller hemmed engine bonnet in automotive industry is presented potentially permitting time and cost savings in serial production. Numerical simulations are performed revealing that the fitting accuracy of the roller hemmed part can, in principle, be drastically improved. Based on the results, a mechanical construction of the hemming die is developed, a realized prototype of which is experimentally explored. Tests demonstrate that the fitting accuracy of the assembled part can be manipulated significantly.
