Abstract

The purpose of this paper is comparing the forging effect according to the shape of preforms of cup shaped powder forging product, and extending the application of powder forging technology to more complicated cup-shaped products like pistons. In order to achieve this, preforms are provided by compacting, sintering, and machining to 5 different shapes, then forged to the final shape of products. The workability for sintered aluminium powder material was examined and confirmed its slope was 0.5 as known. Density and strain loci of forged products are also evaluated and compared. On the basis of the results, the most effective shape of preform was proposed. The preform for the piston which is 50mm in diameter was prepared and hot forged successfully to the final product.
