Friction welding is a common practice to join axially symmetrical parts for automobile industry applications. The shaft for automobile reverse idle gear is generally produced by forging steel, SF 45. This method is not so good because of high cost of material and production. In this study, in order to investigate the possibility of application of SM 45C to SF 45 dissimilar friction welding, the dissimilar friction welded joints were performed using 20 mm diameter solid bar in forging steel(SF 45) to carbon steel(SM 45C). The optimal friction welding parameters were selected to ensure reliable quality welds on the basis of visual examination, tensile test, micro-Virkers hardness surveys of the bond of area and optical microstructure investigations for welded joint parts. Finally, post weld heat treatment(PWHT) of the high-frequency induction hardening was performed for the friction welded specimens under the optimal welding conditions. And then, the mechanical properties were compared for as-welded and PWHT in SM 45C to SF 45.

In this paper, attempts were made to design a preform for a final punch inexpensively using the proposed approximate optimization method or metamodel-based simulation optimization. The design objective of this work is to achieve a uniform distribution of effective strains, the angle dimension of the preformed punch is chosen as a design variable, and maximum underfill ratio is used as a constraint. For this optimization, a computer simulation of a practical punch forging process is run using DEFORM software, in which a preformed punch(workpiece), a master punch(upper die), and a bottom die are dealt with. A validation method is introduced to determine if the simulation results match the actual forging process. In addition, this work presents the detailed design optimization procedure consisting of (i) generation of an initial metamodel, (ii) metamodel optimization, (iii) validation of metamodel-predicted optimum, and (iv) metamodel improvement.

This paper describes computer-aided forging design for rib/web shaped parts. In manufacturing a part by means of forging process, the first step is to design the forging. This is done by modifying the given machined part geometry according to the requirements of the forging process. Traditionally, this is done by experienced forging designers using empirical forging design guidelines. Generally, it would be neither possible nor practical to develop a system which encompasses the design of all types of forgings. Accordingly, forging design can be simplified by considering critical two dimensional cross sections of the machined part geometry. This system is composed of three modules(process variable decision module, forging design module and redesign module) and each module is carried out in regular sequence. In the process variable decision module, first of all, the undercut is checked and modified, and then deep recesses and holes difficult to forge are eliminated. Also parting line, forging plane, forging plan view area, forging weight and maximum size(maximum height or width)are determined. In the forging design module, the magnitude of various allowances, draft angle, minimum web thickness, corner and fillet radius are determined and then geometry modification is performed. Finally, since the design rules and databases used in this system are based on parameters of the forging geometry, such as the trimmed forging plan area, forging weight, forging maxmum size, plausible estimates need to be made for these parameters. Therefore, in the re-design module, the design process is iterated until a satisfactory forging is obtained.

우주발사체용 로켓트 구조재로 사용되는 알루미늄합금 단조재는 강도확보를 위하여 고온으로 가열후 급냉과정에서 상당한 크기의 잔류응력이 발생되고 이로 인해 기계가공시 변형이 유발되어 조립성이 나빠진다. 잔류응력은 그 크기가 재료의 항복강도를 초과할 때 제거되므로 응력제거(stress relief)를 위해서는 외부하중이 가해져야 한다. 응력제거 처리는 소성변형, 열처리 및 초음파 등의 방법으로 수행되며 소성변형에 의한 제거효과가 가장 크다 형상이 복잡한 형 단조재의 경우 열간단조금형과 동일한 금형을 이용하는 TX52 등의 방법을 적용한다고 알려져 있으나 TX54에 대한 금형설계 및 소성변형률 적용 데이터는 공정 know-how로 분류되어 있다. 잔류응력제거 처리의 해석적 연구로는 판재와 링롤재에 대해서는 인장 및 압축 소성변형에 적용에 대한 결과가 발표된 바 있으나 형 단조재의 경우에는 전무하다

로켓트 추진기관 단조부품용 $\psi$ 370mm급 알루미늄합금 7175 빌레트의 국산화개발과 관련한 용해주조기술 현황과, 합금설계와 미량원소첨가가 품질과 제작수율개선에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 미량의 Be첨가는 용탕의 유동성을 개선하고 미세기공량을 감소시켜 단조성을 개선할 것으로 기대되며, 불순물인 Fe/Si 비를 제어하면 주조균열생성을 크게 억제하는 것으로 나타났다. 현재의$\psi$370mm합금 빌레트의 품질수준은 전반적으로 양호하지만, 단조품의 최종물성 개선과 용해주조 조건 정립을 위한 합금설계, 열해석 등의 체계적인 연구와 노하우습득이 필수적으로 요구되며, 이는 향후 예상되는$\psi$ 650급의 대형빌레트의 개발과 7050적용에 이용될 것으로 판단된다.

Precision forging technology that can control flow velocity of workpiece have been developed to minimize the amounts of machining. To get the uniform rib length, flow velocity distribution is needed to be estimated and controlled. Computer-aided design is known for very effective to estimate the deformation behavior and design the die for controlling the flow velocity. In this study, die design to control the deformation velocity are investigated using the DEFORM-2D about rib-web shape parts. Also we can get uniform rib length by enforcing the back pressure at end section of rib. The applied load of back pressure farming is lower than that of conventional forging. These results are analysed and confirmed by the experiment.
