This research developed a new deep-bore, cup-shape, large forging process by combining die forging and free forging methods. In the proposed process, a preform for cup-shape large forging is produced by die forging, and a product with a deep bore is finally manufactured using an open die forging method, which is generally produced using a backward extrusion process. Finite element analysis results showed a higher effective strain distribution with a smaller forging load using the proposed method compared to the backward extrusion method. The production of a prototype with good internal quality using a small press capacity verified the proposed method.

TR 단조공법은 기존의 프레스에 특수장치를 장착하여 프레스의 수직힘과 수평함을 동시에 갖도록 하여 일체형의 크랭크샤프트를 제작하는 공법으로, 연속입자흐름의 크랭크쓰 로우를 제작할 수 있기 때문에 보다 우수한 특성의 크랭크샤프트를 제작할 수 있다. TR 단 조공법을 이용한 크랭크샤프트의 제작은 하나의 소재로 단조하여 제작하기 때문에 기존과는 다른 작업공법 및 전용장비가 필요하나 국내에서는 이러한 공법이나 설비의 부재로 인해 생 산되지 못한 제품이었다. 본 개발에서는 중형엔진용 크랭크샤프트의 국산화를 실현한 측면 에서 TR 단조공법 및 장치에 대한 소개와 본 단조공법을 적용하여 제작된 크랭크샤프트의 제반 특성평가를 수행하여 균일한 물성 및 연속입자흐름에 따른 피로강도의 향상 여부를 확 인하였다.

The mechanical components for wind turbines are mainly manufactured using open-die forging. This research introduces an advanced forging method to produce the door frame of the tubular wind turbine tower. The advantages of this new forging method are an increase in the raw material utilization ratio and a reduction in energy cost. In the conventional method, the door frame is hot forged with a hydraulic press and amounts of material are machined out because of the shape difference between the forged and final machine products. The proposed forging method is composed of hot forging and ring rolling processes to increase the material utilization ratio. The effectiveness of this new forging method is deeply related to the ring rolled blank dimension before the final forging. To get the optimal ring rolled blank, forged shape prediction using the finite element analysis method was applied. The forged dimensions produced by the new forging method were verified through the first article production.

The main shaft is one of the key components connecting the rotor hub and gear box of a wind power generator. Typically, main shafts are manufactured by open die forging method. However, the main shaft for large MW class wind generators is designed to be hollow in order to reduce the weight. Additionally, the main shafts are manufactured by a casting process. This study aims to develop a manufacturing process for hollow main shafts by the open die forging method. The design of a forging process for a solid main shaft and hollow shaft was prepared by an open die forging process design scheme. Finite element analyses were performed to obtain the flow stress by a hot compression test at different temperature and strain rates. The control parameters of each forging process, such as temperature and effective strain, were obtained and compared to predict the suitability of the hollow main shaft forging process. Finally, high productivity reflecting material utilization ratio, internal quality, shape, and dimension was verified by the prototypes manufactured by the proposed forging process for hollow main shafts.

항공 우주 재료 중에서 알루미늄 합금 재료가 차지하는 비중은 매우 크다. 사용 조건에 적합한 특성을 갖도록 하기 위한 연구 노력 중의 한 가지가 단조품 조직의 미세화이다. 일반적으로 조직을 미세화 하는 방법으로는 I.T.M.T 공법을 적용하고 있으나, 러시아에서는 미세 균일한 조직의 알루미늄 열간 단조품을 제조하기 위하여 billet의 주조 공정에서 초음파 처리(U.S.T)를 적용하고 열간 단조 공정에서는 조직 상태도를 활용하여 성형 단계별 소성 가공량의 조절과 작업 온도를 관리함으로서 미세 균일 조직의 대형 알루미늄 단조품을 생산하고 있다.

In the process of warm forging, billet is heated up to $800^{\circ}C$ and located in the upper part of die block impression. The scattered oxidized scale may cause workers burn and shortening of die life sticking to the die block impression. The separating materials sprayed in die block cause harmful dust, harmful mist, fume, and bad odor which contaminate workshop environment. The process is classified as one of the avoided jobs and make the planned output achievement difficult. Development of an elimination device to clear out the contaminating materials in the workshop and improvement of the unsatisfactory maintenance method to fix the abrasion of die block impression which delays the dead line, cost increases needs to be developed. In this research, I tried to solve the problems caused in warm forging of bronze pipe joint such as the billet heating process, die maintenance, and manufacturing cost through improvement of warming forging manufacturing method and die maintenance method and eliminating harmful gas which will make the workshop more environment friendly.
