Taking an engine shell with branches as the research object, the response surface method and the fractional factorial design screening methods were carried out for optimization of multidirectional forming mold parameters. Selecting the flash quality of formed part and forming load act as the objective function, and the tooth surface mold parameters as design variables, establishing a second-order mathematical model. Using fractional factorial design screens effectively the design variables and their interactions. These design variables are impacted significantly factors. BOX-Behnken experimental design method optimized the design parameters (shell bottom taper α, the tooth length b, and branches mouth fillet R2), and have a second-order regression equation. Finally, an overlapping contour map of flash quality and load were drawn, which provide a wide range of values for the actual optimization design. We can predict the quality and the load under different conditions through the overlay contour map.
