Simultaneous forward-backward extrusion upsetting has been carried out by ratray forging. Two materials has been used commericaly 6.61 aluminium ally and 0.2% steel. The effects of working conditions ; spiral feed ; initial aspect ration of specimen and lubricating condition on the backward and forward extrusion were clarified. The extrusion length increases a sthe aspect rationof the specimen increases, the backward extrusion lengthbeing relatively larger than the forward one. The effects of the spiral feed and the material on the extrusion lengthis remarkably large for the large spiral feed.

Reducing production costs through net-shaped cold forging is an important aspect in the automobile industry. In this study, we intend to produce a net-shaped electronic parking brake (EPB) serration gear for automobiles, using multi-stage cold forging. These serrations are then assembled to the reduction gear of an EPB actuator. The forging process of the serrations and the cold forging design were verified through finite element analysis (FEA) in order to evaluate metal flow. The forging machine was selected by checking the load using FEA. Based on the FEA results, molds were designed, and parts were made using multi-stage cold forging to produce a net-shaped serration gear.

The process design of backward and forward extrusion of axisymmetric part has been studied in this paper. The important factors of cold forging process with complex geometry are the design of initial billet shape, the possibility of forming by one-stage operation and the determination of preform shapes, etc. Based on the systematic procedure of process sequence design, the forming operation of cold forged part is analyzed by the commercial finite element program, DEFORM. The design criteria are forming load, geo- metrical filling without defect and a sound distribution of effective strain in final product. It is noted that one step of preform operation is required to obtain the final product. Numerical result is compared with experi- mental one. It is found that the analyzed result is in good agreement with actual forming result.

Spline is a machine component using transmits rotating energy with grooves on internal of boss and external periphery of shaft. Internal spline is generally produced by machining process. However, to reduce manufacturing cost and save time, plastic deformation process such as backward extrusion is gradually adapted for spline production. In plastic deformation process, forming load, stress on tools and flow flaws should be taken into account to have sound products. For this purpose, kinematically admissible velocity fields for Upper Bound Method in backward extrusion of internal spline has been suggested, then forming load and relative pressure have been calculated. Internal spline forming experiments have been con-ucted under hydraulic press and the calculated forming load well predicts the load of experiment.

Forging for spring cup of engine valve was investigated in this study. New method is needed to reduce cost and development lead time required to fix forming process of new product, that eventually can provide die, metal flow and forming loads with high confidence level. FEM could provide required detail information that could reduce trial error in advance before the actual production. By using the rigid-plastic finite element simulation, possibilities of improving former research were explored. Results generated by FEM could foresee expected material deformation in advance and made possible new forming process successfully.

Self-piercing rivet is sheet joining method. It is being used more to join aluminum alloy sheets. Self-piercing riveting is a large-deformation process that involves piercing. The self-piercing rivet, under the press from the punch, pierces the top sheet and forms a mechanical interlock with the bottom sheet. In this study, forging process was designed for manufacturing self-piercing rivet. The forging process has been simulated by using commercial FEM code DEFORM-2D. In simulation of forging process for manufacturing rivet, process sequence, formability, forging load, and distributions of stress and strain were investigated. The suitable forging process could be designed by comparisons of simulation results. The developed process consists of four stages: upsetting, first chamfering, back extrusion, and second chamfering. The simulated results for forging process were confirmed by experimental trials with the same conditions.
