An Analysis on the Forming Process of a Power Assisted Steering Part
PAS 부품의 성형공정해석
Abstract
A Manufacturing process of the power steering worm blank is analyzed by FEM aimulation. The process includes mainly three operations such as indentation, extrusion, and upsetting, which was designed bya forming equipment expert. The results of simulation are summarized in terms of load-stroke relationships, die pressure distributions, effective strain distribution, and deforming patterns for each forming operation. Also, Efforts are focused to get the reason that the tool expert designed the forming process in three operations. The results of the simulation are to be useful for the next advanced process planning in terms of good dimesional accuracy, savings in material and machining, no deforaming defects and imporvements in mechanical properties.
