A Blocker Design Using a Low Pass Filter

저역 통과 필터를 사용한 예비가공형 설계

This paper investigates a new method to design blocker geometry in rib-web type closed die forging. By examining various forging and blocker geometries, it was found that blocker geometry can be generated by eliminating high frequency mode from finisher geometry. In order to formalize the procedure, low pass filters, which can convert finisher to blocker geometry, are proposed. Also discrete Fourier transform is used for computational efficiency. The blocker geometry designed by the present method are compared with the one by an experienced designer. The blocker geometries are also validated by using FEM simulation. Present results shows that the frequency approach may offer a promising method to design blocker automatically.
