Experimental Research of Powder Forging for Sub-Scale Connecting rods
커넥팅 로드의 분말단조를 위한 소결 및 단조특성의 실험적 연구
Abstract
Powder forged Connecting Rods have become attractive for use in automotive engines. The powder forging process offers beneficial material utilization as well as the minimization of finishing operations over that of conventionally forged rods. In the present work, the sintering behavior of Fe-2Cu-0.6C, optimum preform design and forgeability of various forging variables were investigated. Our data were generated using a newly proposed sub-scale con-rod developed specifically to simulate the powder forging process. We obtain optimum condition of sintering and powder forging process.
