Fracture behaviors of SCM435 high strength bolt have been studied including macroscopic and microscopic fracture observation, Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy, Vickers hardness test and applied stress evaluation. cracks (ratchet marks) were generated by the repetitive loads acting on the bolts, initial stress of bolt and the stress concentration. The applied stress was found to be slightly higher than the fatigue limit of the material. The initial stress of bolt must be removed, and the mold temperature during the process must be maintained by room temperature. Bolts are recommended to be peened to improve fatigue limit.

Aus-tempering heat treatment is suitable for thin and small-sized in precision parts. However, the heat treatment process relies on the experience and skill of the operator, making it challenging to produce precision parts due to the cold forging process. The aims of this study is to explore suitable machine learning models using data from the aus-tempering heat treatment process and analyze the factors that significantly impact the mechanic properties (e.g. hardness). As a result, the study analyzed, from a machine learning perspective, how hardness prediction varies based on the quenching temperature, carbon (C), and copper (Cu) contents.

This study proposes a new approach to control a trajectory control of vertical type articulated robot arm with six revolution joints by computed torque method for manufacturing process automation. The proposed control scheme takes advantage of the properties of the fuzzy controllers. The proposed method is suitable to control of the trajectory and path control in cartesian space for vertical type articulated robot manipulator for forging manufacturing process automation. The results is illustrated that the proposed fuzzy computed torque controller is more stable and robust than the conventional computed torque controller. This study is included with an analytical methodology of inverse kinematic computation for 6 DOF manipulators. And an intelligent PID based on feed forward fuzzy control structure is applied to control the working path control with disturbances caused by uncertainty parameters of the manipulator dynamic model. Lastly, the validity of proposed is verified by simulations and experiments.

최근 스마트 폰, 모바일 PC 제품의 외관에 필요한 가벼운 금속제품으로 제조를 하기 위하여 알루미늄 압출 공정과 CNC 가공기법을 적용한 생산방식이 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만, 알루미늄 압출법은 외관 디자인의 제약이 있으며, 특히 CNC 가공 프로세스가 상대적으로 높은 생산 비용 및 낮은 생산성으로 생산단가가 많이 높은 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서, 새로운 처리 방법을 순서 재료비를 대폭 감소시키고, 제조 속도를 향상시키기 위해 판재성형과 부피성형의 두가지 공정을 섞어 새로운 판단조 공정을 개발하였다. 새로운 판단조 공법(hybrid plate forging)이란 우선 일반적인 딥드로잉으로 중간 모양을 만든 후 원하는 벽 부위만 증육을 하는 방법을 의미한다. 이러한 판단조 공법을 활용하여 재료의 낭비와 제조 시간을 최소화하는 것이 가능하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 상용 유한 요소 프로그램 AFDEX-2D를 통해 판단조공정을 설계하였고 최적의 사용 가능한 소재의 두께와 초기 폭을 설계하였다. 최종적으로 실제 노트북 케이스 금형을 제작하여 제안한 방법의 타당성을 검증하였다.

A large variety of pipe flanges are required in the marine and construction industry. Pipe flanges are usually welded or screwed to the pipe end and are connected with bolts. This approach is very simple and has been widely used for a long time; however, it results in high development costs and low productivity, and the products made through this approach usually have safety problems in the welding area. In this research, a new approach for forming pipe flanges based on cold forging and the floating die concept is presented. This innovative approach increases the effectiveness of the material usage and saves time and costs compared with the conventional welding method. To ensure the dimensional accuracy of the final product, finite element analysis (FEA) was carried out to simulate the process of cold forging, and orthogonal experiment methods were used to investigate the influence of four manufacturing factors (stroke of distance, pin die angle, forming of pipe diameter, and speed of the die) and predict the best combination of them. The manufacturing factors were obtained through numerical and experimental studies, which show that the approach is very useful and effective for the forming of pipe flanges and could be widely used in the future.

Ultrasonic cold forging technology (UCFT) utilizing ultrasonic vibration energy is a method to induce severe plastic deformation to a material surface, therefore the structure of the material surface becomes a nano-crystal structure from the surface to a certain depth. It improves the mechanical properties; hardness, compressive residual stress, wear and fatigue characteristics. Applying UCFT to a rolling process in the steel industry is introduced in this study. First, the UCFT specimens of a tool steel (SKD-61/equivalent H13) are prepared and tested to verify the effects of the UCFT in a variety of mechanical properties, the UCFT is applied to the trimming knives in a cold rolling process. It has been determined that UCFT improves the mechanical properties effectively and becomes a practical method to improve productivity and reliability by about two times compared with the conventionally treated tooling in the trimming process in a cold rolling line.

The characteristics of the tool system give many effects into the costs and qualities for the finished components. Therefore, a tool life is one of the important issues on cold forging industry. However, since variables related with tool life are many complicated, the studies for solution should be investigated by the systematic research approach. In this study, heat-treatment of tool material is investigated to improve the tool life. Deep cryogenic treatment of tool steel is very efficient to improve the wear resistance due to the fine carbide. And, it is investigated that the shape and dimension of tool give effect into both tool life and quality of forged product.

The preform design in metal forging plays a key role in improving product quality, such as ensuring defect-free property and proper metal flow. In industry, preforms are generally designed by the iterative trial-and-error approach, but this approach leads not only to significant tool cost but also to the down-time of the production equipment. It is thus necessary to reduce the time and the man-power through an effective method of perform design. In this paper, the equi-potential lines designed in the electric field are introduced to find the preform shape. The equi-potential lines obtained by the arrangement of the initial and final shapes are utilized for the design of the preform, and then applied for obtaining a fine preform in the foging process of the ball-joint socket.

The use of new and renewable energy is essential to solve the problem of increasing fossil fuel use due to industrial development. The paradigm of the automobile industry has changed due to the strengthening of environmental regulations in developed countries, and the development of eco-friendly cars is underway. Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), which use hydrogen as fuel, require strict standards for fuel-related components. In particular, check valves for FCEV control high-pressure hydrogen and thus, must be sufficiently strong for the challenging environment caused by high-pressure hydrogen. Therefore, this study used DEFORM 3D, a regular finite element analysis program, to check the moldability of check valves for FCEV, design the process, verify reliability through single streamline analysis, tensile tests, and ANSYS simulations, and identify suitable materials for the high-pressure hydrogen environment.

In the steel industry, there is a need to produce large forged parts for the automobile industries, the flight and shipping industries ad military industries. In the steel-industry application, a cogging technique for cast ingots is required, because the major parts are needed as one large body in order to obtain higher quality. Therefore, cogging process is the primary step in manufacturing of practically large open-die forging. In the cogging process, internal voids have to be eliminated as defects, The present work is concerned with the elimination of the internal voids in large ingots so as obtain sound products. In this study, hot compression tests were carried out to obtain the flow stress of cast microstructure at different temperature and strain rates. The FEM analysis are performed to investigate the overlap defect of cast ingots during cogging stage. The measure flow stress data were used to simulate the cogging process of cast ingot using the practical material properties. Also the analysis of void closure are performed by using the $DEFORM^{TM}$-3D. The calculated results of void closure behavior are compared with the measured results before and after cogging, which are scanned by the X-ray scanner. From this result, the criteria for deformation amounts effect on the void closure can be investigated by the comparison of practical experiment and numerical analysis.
