Abstract

A method for manufacturing a press-formed product includes a blanking step of blanking from a sheet-shaped material into a shape in which an excess material portion is added to the contour outline of a developed shape of the press-formed product, a first pressing step of folding the excess material portion to form straight sides into an intermediate formed product with a bent flange portion, a second pressing step of performing press forming including bulging in which the bulging portion is provided on the intermediate formed product, and a trimming step of trimming the excess material portion.
