다단 냉간단조 공정에서는 결함이 없는 재료의 유동, 금형내부의 완전한 충만과 금형의 수명향상 등을 위하여 예비성형체의 설계가 중요시되고 있다. 특히 최근 제품의 정밀도에 관심이 집중되어 냉간 상태에서 완제품으로 성형하여 후속 기계가공을 없앰으로써 재료의 절약, 에너지 절감, 가공공정수 단축 등 냉간단조를 고부가가치 가공의 유력한 수단으로 응용하려는 추세이다. 이러한 경우 예비성형체의 형상은 제품의 정밀도와 금형의 수명에 지대한 영향을 미친다.(중략)

This study describes computer-aided design system for stepped asymmetric forgings. To establish the appropriate process sequence, an integrated approach based on a rule-base system was accomplished. This system has four modules, which are undercut prevention module, shape cognition module, 3D modelling module and corner/fillet correction module. These modules can be used independently or at all. The proposed shape cognition method could be widely used in forging design of asymmetric parts.

Recently, the automobile industry has continued to demand lighter materials owing to international environmental regulations and increased convenience. To address this demand, aluminum parts have increased in popularity and are mainly developed and produced through hot forging and cold pressing. However, because this method has low yield and low production efficiency, a new manufacturing method is desirable. In this study, the water capacity efficiency of an aluminum inner tie rod socket was investigated using cold forging that provided a high yield and excellent production efficiency. Mechanical properties were derived through tensile testing of 6110A aluminum materials, and critical fracture factor and process analysis based on experimental data were carried out. The optimized process was applied as a prototype using cold multi-stage forging, and based on the derived results, the formability, productivity, and material efficiency of aluminum inner tie rod socket parts using this cold forging process was verified.

Cold forging is a method in which molding is performed at room temperature. It has a high material recovery rate and dimensional precision and produces excellent surface quality, and it is mainly used for the production of bolted or housing products. The lifespan of cold forging molds is generally determined by the wear of the mold, plastic deformation of the mold, and fatigue strength. Cold forging molds are frequently damaged due to fatigue destruction rather than wear and plastic deformation in a high-temperature environment as it is molded at room temperature without preheating the raw material and mold. Based on the results analyzed through FEM, an effective mold structure design method was proposed by analyzing the changes in tensile and compressive stresses on molds according to the number of molds and reinforcement rings and comparing the product geometry and mold stress using three existing mold models.

Reducing production costs through net-shaped cold forging is an important aspect in the automobile industry. In this study, we intend to produce a net-shaped electronic parking brake (EPB) serration gear for automobiles, using multi-stage cold forging. These serrations are then assembled to the reduction gear of an EPB actuator. The forging process of the serrations and the cold forging design were verified through finite element analysis (FEA) in order to evaluate metal flow. The forging machine was selected by checking the load using FEA. Based on the FEA results, molds were designed, and parts were made using multi-stage cold forging to produce a net-shaped serration gear.

In this paper, effects of major design parameters of cold forging dies on die mechanics are quantitatively investigated with emphasis on shrink fit using a thermoelastic finite element method. A ball-stud cold forging process found in a cold forging company is selected as a test process and the effects of die insert material, magnitude of shrink fit, dimension of shrink ring, number of shrink rings, partition of die insert and clamping force on effective stress and circumferential stress are analyzed. It has shown that the number of shrink rings, magnitude of shrink fit, and Young's modulus of die insert material have strong influence on compressive circumferential stress in die insert but that the influence of the other design parameters is relatively weak.

This paper deals with an automated forming sequence design system by which designers can determine desirable operation sequences even if they have little experience in the design of cold forging process. The forming sequence design in the cold forging is very important and requires many kinds of technical and empirical knowledge. They system isproposed, which generates forming sequence plans for the multistage cold forging of axisymmtrical solid products. Since the process of metal forming can be considered as a transformation of geometry, treatment of the geometry of the product is a key in planning process. To recognize the geometry of the product section, section entity representation and primitive geometries were used. Section entity representation can be used for the calculation of maximum diameter, maximum height, and volume. Forming sequence for the part can be determined by means of primitive geometries such as cylinder, cone, convex, and concave. By utilizing this geometrical characteristics (diameter, height, and radius), the product geometry is expressed by a list of the priitive geometries. Accordingly the forming sequence design is formulated as the search problem which starts with a billet geometry and finishes with a given product one. Using the developed system, the sequence drawing with all dimensions, which includes the proper sequence of operations for the part, is generated under the environment of AutoCAD. Based on the results of forming sequence, process variables(strain, punch pressure, die inner pressure, and forming load) are determined.
