In this paper, limitation of rigid-plastic finite element method caused from rigid-plasticity assumption and numerical problem is investigated in detail and a useful scheme is proposed to get rid of the plastic deformation in rigid or elastic region. A typical example of a possible long bar extrusion process is given, which may be impossible to simulate without using the proposed scheme. The scheme is successfully applied to simulating the long bolt forging processes.
