The die design for hot forging was investigated for manufacturing precisely of scroll rotor made with Al-Si alloy. A scroll rotor is a non-symmetric 3-D shape part, having involute wraps. Disk-shaped billet of Al-Si alloy was extruded to wraps and boss simultaneously. Because the involute wraps is not axi-symmetric, the flow velocity and the stress of die is very much different at each portion. Moreover, the die in wraps portion is a cantilever beam and fractured. In this paper, the analysis of forming and die stress is investigated using the FEM tool, DEFORM-3D. The tensile strength of tool material is $250kg/mm^{2}$. From the analysis results, we can find the maximum principal stress of die is over the fracture strength and redesign the die. The prototype forged part is superior in net shaping and microstructure.

The reaction bonded alumina ceramics was prepared through the addition of each SiC and ZrO2 powder to the mixture of Al metal powder and Al2O3 The mono sized (3mm) and biodal sized (3mm+5mm) balls were used in attrition milling of Al and starting powders. The milling efficiency of both cases was compared by the analysis of particle size and X-ray diffraction. After the forming and sintering of each powder batchs the weight gains dimensional changes and densities were determined. The specimens were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscope. Bimodal sized balls had better milling effect than single ball size in the milling of Al powder. However in the milling which ceramic powders mono sized the green body during the reaction sintering at 1$600^{\circ}C$ for 5 hour was about 10% The densities attained the values of 92-98% theoretical. The SiC added specimen that was milled with 3mm ball media had 96% theoretical density and dense microstructure.

In Semi-Solid Forging, it is necessary to control the forming variables accurately in order to make near-net-shape products. Generally, the defects of products may occur due to liquid segregation which can be caused by the degree of deformation and condition of friction in Semi-Solid Forging, where the segregation is to be predicted by flow analysis. This paper presents the feasibility of theoretical analysis model using the new yield function which is proposed by Doraivelu et al. to the flow analysis of the semi-solid dendritic Sn-15%Pb alloys instead of adopting the yield criterion of Shima & Oyane which is used by Charreyron and usefulness of the adopted yield function. The distribution of the liquid fraction at various strains in radial direction and the influence of friction are estimated by Upper Bound Method.

This paper presents the mechanics of the link of a double-action link-type hydraulic die set for the enclosed die forging. Operational principle of the die set in the enclosed die forging is introduced with emphasis on force transmission from the press and the hydraulic system to the material through links, die components and punches. The force exerted on the link is statically investigated and its structural analysis is carried out. The analyzed results are discussed to be used for design of the link system.

분무성형공정은 급냉응고 및 결정입자 제어에 따른 고품위 소재 개발의 장점과 함께 고밀도 near-net-shape 제품의 제조가 가능한 합금제조기술이다 분무성형체의 미세조직은 적층표면에 도달하는 액적들의 평균 열용량, 즉 고상분율에 의하여 결정되며, 이는 액적의 비행과정에서의 분사가스-액적간의 열전달과 적층표면에서의 열유입과 열유출 속도에 영향을 받는다. 실제 다양한 공정변수들이 복합적으로 미세조직 형성과정에 영향을 미치지만, 균일한 미세조직을 얻기 위하여서는 적층표면에서의 온도와 고상분율을 항상 일정하게 제어하여야만 한다 즉, 적층표면 온도를 분무 성형공정중에 지속적으로 측정하여 이를 공정 제어 시스템에 feedback하여 원하는 적층표면온도를 유지하도록 공정변수를 제어하는 것이 필수적이다. 분무성형에 제조된 성형체는 합금원소의 편석이 없고 미세한 등방성의 결정립으로 이루어진 특징적인 미세조직을 나타낸다 이와 같은 미세조직으로 인하여 분무성형체는 우수한 성형성과 기계가공성을 나타내며, 또한 분무성형-후속가공된 최종 제품은 잉곳주조에 의하여 제조된 것과 비교하여 크게 향상된 기계적 성질을 가진다.

The objective of this research is to develop a cost model for integrated CAD system. A computerized system realizing this model then is used to aid designers. The first area is to propose a conceptual framework of a multilevel cost model. The methodology of constructing the model is discussed. Then suggestion of an object oriented programming technique for implementing the model is presented. Complicate estimation procedure can be systematically handled by this technique. Interval analysis to deal with the uncertainty of information and decision during design process is used. An experimentation algorithm for calculating the cost distribution is proposed to overcome the shortcoming of interval analysis. Major focus of this research is on net shape manufacturing processes including die casting, injection molding, and metal forming.

The rotary forging process has a potential for producing high-precision parts because of smaller forging forces and incrementally controlled deformation, especially in cold forging of intricate parts to net shape. But while thin circular plate are made by rotary forging, center thinning and fracture will occur under given conditions. The trouble has seriously influenced the quality of products and the spreading of this technique. This paper intends to explain the phenomenon of center thinning and gives a criterion of it. In order to confirm the validity of the proposed criterion, experiments have been carried out by using the rotary forging press which has been designed and constructed in our laboratory.

The squeeze casting process is considered as an attractive way to form the primary product of near net shape metal matrix composites for wide use in automobile industry. To understand for infiltration limit in squeeze casting processes, the SAFFIL short fiber preform of volume fraction $10%{\sim}23%$ were fabricated by vaccum pumping and speed control press, and the optimal condition for fiber preform fabrication had been experimentally obtained. The composite materials were fabricated by forced infiltration of molten metals such as Al6061, Al7075, pure Al, AC8A, and Al2024. The infiltration distance and deformation of fiber preform are observed, and tensile strength were measured from at the room temperature.

In this study, we develop the lower pressure die casting with rheo-forming process of A356 aluminum alloy and vacuum system which can control the crystal size and obtain the high strengthened-light material. Using this process, we fabricate the thin plate for bipolar plate through the low pressure die casting with electromagnetic stirring and vacuum-evacuation which can control the crystal grain by electromagnetic stirring. Thin plate ($110mm{\times}130mm{\times}1mm$) is fabricated by this process. The average Vickers hardness of thin plate is about 77 HV.

The behaviour of alloys in the semi-solid state strongly depends on the imposed stress stage and on the morphology of the phase which can vary from dendritic to globular. To optimal net shape forging of semi-solid materials, it is important to investigate for material behaviour for variation of strain rate. Therefore, to investigate the effect of compression speed on deformation of aluminum alloy with globular microstructure, the compression test for semi-solid aluminum alloy with controlled solid fraction is perform by material test system which is attracted with furance. The behavior of semi-solid aluminum alloy were discussed for the various solid fraction and die speed. The material constants in stress-strain were are also proposed.
