The design for cold extrusion dies is very important because the die insert is subjected to very high radial and hoop stresses. The design of cold extrusion dies has many constrained conditions. In this paper, two assumptions were proposed. First assumption was selected by yielding strength dependent on the to hoop stress of each ring in dies. Second assumption is that the maximum inner pressure is determined when yielding occurs in one ring of dies. To obtain the maximum inner pressure the flexible tolerance method was applied. A comparison of design values between the proposed method and the conventional method has been discussed.

By using the FEM, a method for the stress analysis of the presented dies has been proposed. In this method, FEM and Lame equation are used for the analysis of the die insert and the stress ring, respectively. The proposed method includes the calculation of the contact pressure between the die insert and the stress ring. To show the validity, the proposed method has been applied to the simple test problem. The results of the stress analysis have been compared with the results of ANSYS, a commercial FE-code. Cold extrusion has been simulated by using the rigid-plastic FEM and the results of the deformation analysis have been used as the input of the die structure analysis. The stress states of the prestressed extrusion die have been obtained. The stress analysis of the die insert with stress rings has also been performed during extrusion.

This study is concerned with an effect of frictional condition in a forward/backward combined extrusion process. Generally, the material flow of the billet is influenced by the corners of the die cavity, the ratio in reduction in area, and thickness ratio of backward can thickness to forward can thickness. In addition, the frictional condition in contact area between the billet and the punch/die also affect the material flow. This paper investigated the effect of frictional condition for variable friction factors. The FEM simulation has been carried out in order to examine the effect of frictional condition. Deformation patterns and flow characteristics were examined in terms of design parameters such as extruded length ratio etc. Die pressure exerted on the die-workpiece interface is calculated by the simulation results and analyzed for safe tooling. Therefore the numerical simulation works provide a combined extrusion process of stable cold forging process planning to avoid the severe damage on the tool.

Since the upsetting type is superior to an extrusion type to get the dimensional accuracy of cold forged spur gear, the upsetting type process far spur gear cold forging has been studied. FE analysis of upsetting type process fur spur gear cold forging was performed to investigate about flow pattern of workpiece and die stress. To analyze the elastic characteristics of die, both rigid and elastic material model were used during loading stage. Under-filled defects were detected In lower portions of spur gear forged by upsetting type in experimental. When the elastic material model for die was used, the under-filled defects could be predicted. On the other hand, if the material model of die was rigid, the defects could not been presented because the die deflection was not considered.

The extrusion velocity of billet through a die and the shapes of the die are the important factors in the metal forming process of the extrusion of billet. in recent years, the life cycle of products is goingfaster. Although the former finite element method was capable of yielding a detailed analysis, it requires lots of time and extensive coding effort. Then, some simple devices were developed and based on upper bound method. For this purpose , a kinematically admiasible velocity field is formulated for extrusion of cylinders with arbitrary cross section and die profile on their outer surfaces by using a modified upper bound approach, which configures simulataneous extruding speeds in three directions . Also, In order to display mesh of the cold forward extrusion process using the approach , the automatic three-dimentional mesh generation produced by the approach coupled finite element method with upper bound method.

Restoring ductility or removing residual stresses is a necessary operation when a large amount of cold working is to be performed, such as in a cold-forging or warm forging process. The advantage of annealing temperatures was investigated. After Hydrostatic Extrusion process, extruded materials were annealed at $200^{\circ}C,\;350^{\circ}C,\;450^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. Microstructure of the annealed material was observed to make an understand about the difference in mechanical properties.

Die design to minimize the die wear in the cold forging process is very important as it reduce the production cost and the increase of the production rate. The quantitative estimation for the die wear is too hard because the prediction of the die wear is determined with many process variables. So, in this paper, the optimal shape of the backward extrusion punch is newly designed through the FE-analysis considering the surface expansion and Archard's wear model in order to reduce the rapid wear rate that is generated for the backward extrusion product exceeding the forming limit. The main shape variables of the backward extrusion punch are the flat, angle, and round of the punch nose part. As the flat and angle of the punch nose are larger, the surface expansion is reduced. and, the wear rate is decreased according to the reduction of the punch round. These results obtained through this study are applied to the real manufacturing process, it is implemented the reduction of the wear rate.

This paper is concerned with the process sequence design of longneck flange forming by using cold extrusion with thick hollow pipe. The conventional hot forming process to produce a longneck flange is investigated by thermo-viscoplastic finite element method to observe the metal flow in detail and evaluate design requirements. Based on the results of simulation of the current hot forming process, design strategy for improving the process sequence are developed using the thick hollow pipe. The main goal is to obtain an appropriate improved process sequence which can produce the required product most economically without tensile cracking, workpiece buckling, and overloading of tools. Newly process condition such as semi-die angle, reductio ratio of cross-sectional area of axisymmetrical extrusion process. The final designed process can provide very useful guidelines to other flange forming industries.

The yoke, a component of conventional motor-driven power steering system, often contains welding defects from its manufacturing process. To eliminate these defects, the precision cold forging process has been tried. In this study, the double-action complex forging has been used to manufacture a torsion joint yoke. The backward extrusion proved faster than the forward extrusion in forging of the product. The double-action complex forging process utilized an upper die composed of a punch, a punch guide, a disc spring and a coil spring. The forged material pushes up the punch guide, and then the disc spring and the coil spring balances the backward extrusion force. Consequently, the flow of material was essentially in the forward direction, resulting in a successful forging operation. The forging load of Al 6061-T6 was higher than that of the automotive structural hot rolled plate.
