In this paper, a computer simulation technique for the forging process having a floating die is presented. The penalty rigid-plastic finite element method is employed together with an iteratively force-balancing method, in which the convergence is achieved when the floating die part is in force equilibrium within the user-specified tolerance. The force balance is controled by adjusting the velocity of the floating die in an automatic manner. An application example of a three-stage cold forging process is given.

In this paper, a computer simulationtechnique for the forging process having a spring-attached die was presented . The penalty rigid-thermoviscoplastic finite element method was empolyed together with an interatively force-balancing method, in which the convergence was achieved when the forming load and the spring reaction force are in equilibrium within the user-specified allowable accuracy. The force balance was controled by adjusting the velocity of the spring-attched die. th minimize the number of internations, a velocity estimating schemewas proposed. Two application examples found in the related company were given. In the first application example, the predicted metal folw lines were compared with the acturally forged ones. in the second example, a hot forging process with a spring-attached die was simulated and the analyzed results were discussed in order to investigated the effects of spring-attached dies on the metal flow lines and the forming loads.
